However, even then, we try to draw gods from real-world religions like Hinduism, Shinto, etc. (Our Cleric of Commerce worships Ganesha, for example.)

Of course, we also threw out the "all casters are the same" in favor of DF's mix of wizards, clerics, druids, etc. -- and doing so has changed little of the setting from our perspective.
Oh, I definitely would want to keep that.

I would definitely like to hear more on your experiences with DF on Yrth. Did you change any of the social attitudes for any races or religions? Are pagans still thought of as demon-worshippers? Do pagan clerics have to be secretive in cities?

Speaking of religion, why do Hindu Brahmin need to be secretive?
