#but eityr as amaldyne’s most beloved servant and amaldyne as the only god eityr has ever really believed in is true to them i think

So a champion is a lot of things. They are the most favored of a god’s followers. They are practically a deity in and of themselves (though a lesser one). They are high priest and devout worshipper and emissary and recruiter and soldier and general all in one. They serve their god and their cause before anything else, and each god will only ever have one at a time.

And the thing is, Amaldyne isn’t a god. She didn’t even really choose Hunger (although she serves it all the same). Amaldyne could be a champion, perhaps she even would be, if Hunger ever seemed to choose any. But Amaldyne is powerful, and people listen to her. She has a cause to follow and servants to recruit and even as a mortal she also has a champion. Because Eityr has clung on to Amaldyne despite everything, and Eityr serves every purpose of a true champion even as she pulls her powers from other gods. Amaldyne is to her cause what the gods are to the desires and wants and needs that they represent, and Eityr’s cause is Amaldyne. Ok?
