RoswellCrash Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I am looking into some information I have gathered since playing RuneScape concerning the God Guthix, I believe many people don't know the truth about him and I would like to see what you guys the Tip.It Community think. I want to know what makes Guthix a popular RuneScape God? Please let us know if you believe Guthix is a God of "Good" I would like Everyone to use three words to best describe what Guthix stands for, and what you think he is the best known for. And a short description about what he "is" and "isn't" Also you can list your favourite Gods in order from Best to worse. And general chat about the Gods of RuneScape My Admiration for Zamorak comes from the fact he was a mortal that became a god, that alone meant he must have been great. I don't really follow any RuneScape god but I am most interested in Zamorak and Zaros. Seems some people don't know what the god's look like. Zaros is believed to be a god of pure evil also the god of Ancient Magicks, Zaros enslaved a great and powerful tribe known as the Mahjarrat mortal men from Freneskrae a dimension of never-ending warfare, Zamorak was from the Mahjarrat tribe and he ultimately used the staff of Armadyl to kill Zaros in a treacherous plot to destroy him, Six of the seven treacherous disciples where cursed by Zaros before his disappearance only Zamorak was spared because he was now an untouchable god! The six others where made invisible ghosts For all of eternity there names are: ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Veldez, a Saradomist ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Rennard, a seemingly Zarosian thief ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Kharrim, a Zamorakian messenger ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Lennissa, a Saradomist spy ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Dhalak, Lennisa's boss ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãââ Viggora, a Zamorakian warrior The story of how Zaros was betrayed goes as follows: Veldez, a faithful Saradominist, stumbled upon the Staff of Armadyl, who knew that it was a very powerful God Staff and could not be in the wrong hands. However, a thief called Rennard stumbled upon Veldez, knocked him unconscious and took the Staff. He intended to sell it to Zaros, but his messenger, Kharrim, instead took it to General Zamorak of the Mahjarrat, who was mortal during that era. Another Saradominist called Lennissa found out about the sale and gave it to a Saradominist Mage called Dhalak. Dhalak was supposed to pass it to Saradomin himself, but he enchanted the Staff so that Zaros could not detect it and then to gave Zamorak so Zamorak could rebel against Zaros so evil would be destroyed. Zamorak and his supporters, including Viggora, took care of Zaros's guards and Zamorak fought Zaros himself. He plunged the Staff of Armadyl into Zaros and wounded him. However, even when Zaros had a god weapon in his back, and Zamorak was the strongest mortal in all of RuneScape, Zaros was still an immortal god, and so Zaros was still able to beat Zamorak. However, Zaros tripped while attempting to choke Zamorak to death, and both of them were impaled by the Staff of Armadyl. Zaros faded from RuneScape while Zamorak seemed to become more real. However, before he died, Zaros uttered a curse unto Veldez, Rennard, Kharrim, Lennissa, Dhalak, Viggora and all those involved in the rebellion, including Zamorak. The curse was to make them wander around RuneScape as ghosts for eternity. Veldez and the other 5 people were cursed, but the others involved were seemingly unaffected. Viggora theorizes that it was because all of Zamorak's other followers were magical and so the curse was much less effective on them. In the end, the Staff disappeared into the Temple of Ikov and Zamorak became a God, while Zaros was sent to another dimension. The 6 people mentioned were cursed. Good Posts: Guthix is neither good nor evil, Guthix is booth good and evil. Guthix is balance, and acts to maintain that balance, weather that action is typical of something good (saradomin) would do, or typical of something evil (zamorack) would do. Guthix is also the good of nature, and by far the most powerful (because nature ALWAYS wins, sometimes it takes a while, even millions of years, but nature will always win). This is even represented on the god armours, its colour is green, and green is the colour of balance (because its in the middel of the spectrum, not being a warm or cool colour). And I dont think Guthix is veary popular. I'm a saradomin follower, and I think that Guthix is trying to achieve a meaningless purpose. Guthix is causing restrictions on our actions, by continuing a perpetual power struggle between good an evil. Can we please just end this, let saradomin win, and let Runescape exist in peace? Please? By the way, some words to use: Saradomin follower= Saradominist Zamorak follower= Zamorakien Guthix follower= Guthixian Sorry, I like tidy lingo. Guthix is nothing but a power hungry God. As i said in another topic, Guthix just "ended" the God war because he was afraid someone else would win. Lets say Saradomin won the God war. Then Guthix would be the bad guy, comming into the lands and create havoc and destruction in order to keep his so called "balance" between good and evil. When infact, the only balance there is, is good. Wrong, wrong as you could be. In order for there to be balance, there must be equal parts of good and evil in the world. If there was to be absolutly no evil than there couldn't possibly be balance. Take a scale for example. On both sides there must be equal weight in order for it to be balanced, the same is true here. Without any evil there can be nothing to judge the good. Also keep in mind that good and evil is also purely a matter of perspective. On either side of the conflict both sides believe that they are fighting for the good and that the other is evil. A villain that is evil for the sake of being evil is quite unrealistic. Guthix>Zamorak=Saradomin Wrong, worng as you could be. Zamorak is fighting for more power, power to control all things. He even killed another God to become a God Himself. He lured Zaros. And now he want to ultimately get the world under his feet. Saradomin however want every person and living creature to have the same opportunities for a good life. Without the need for deceiving, stealing etc. Its a question on moral basically. And all your [****] talk about scale with equal weight. Well, what can I say. Its a bunch of [*****]. Its like saying for every blessing there must be a murder. I find no sense in that. But then again, I find no sense in following Guthix, and I would never fall to such an all time low to compare myself with his ignorant followers. Nope, Saradomin for president.. err.. Saradomin for worshiping. Good feedback shame about the ranting -------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks Ts_Stormrage Ok, the record needs some straightening out here I see... Saradomin is the god of "good", following in the footsteps of Armadyll. He generally has the hearts and minds of the lower classes, because it is to Saradomin you look if you hope for soemthing better. Zamorak (learn to spell the name of your god!) is the god of chaos, and only became a god by taking the power from Zaros, who was a LOT more powerfull then Zamorak has ever been. it was only by sheer luck that Zamorak actually managed to seize Zaros' power. Zamorak had friends helping him, most were formerly Mahjarrat, but where are they now? The only one still about that has not let his power wane over time and still supporting Zamorak is Lord Drakan of Morytania. Guthix is the one who MADE the world, and everyone in it, including Zamorak who was not even alive then. Furthermore, Guthix does not have his power dependant on the quality and quantity of his followers, bnut he is the one that is actually all powerfull... Yes he is way more powerfull then even Zaros, Saradomin and all the other gods combined... Guthix does not need you to worship him. Right now he is dormant again, sleeping peacefully until such a time that the world he made and loves so much is intent on destroying itself, at which point he will wake up and interveine... http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=578080 A while back I wrote something about the history of the Godwars (3rd age of Gielenor, we now live in the 5th), If you wish to have your opinions based on atleast SOME knowledge, I suggest reading this thread... /me eyes Fredz :shame: My 3 words that describe Guthix: Patient Omnipotent Versatile If you do not understand why I chose these 3 words, then I dont think you deserve to have an opinion of Guthix at all (before the flames start, having an opinion can still mean different then mine)... Now I'm willing to debate why I follow Guthix' principles and guidelines, but i think that thats best left to a somple Q and A... - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burzuk Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Guthix is popular? :shock: Guthix is all about balance. I prefer to think of gods as the story goes (or so i think) Zamorak and Saradomin were in a big fight and Guthix arose and ended the conflict, he is the oldest of them all. :P I prefer Zamorak :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many people (Including a guthix clan on RuneScape told me they prefer Guthix because he is Good) belive Guthix is a "good" god when he is neither. Not many realize that Saradomin is more good then Guthix - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoswellCrash Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 Good to see I sparked an anti-Guthix movement.... My work here is done! I am going to ask you to post why you admire the god you do and why? I find the story of Zamorak is a lot bigger then the story of Guthix/Saradomin. - Twitter | RuneScape FB Group | My PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And besides, it's the holes in the road that makes things interesting, you know? If there were no problems in the world, it isn't much worth much. It's always good to have a slight balance with "Good and Evil" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjakie_1_1_3 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Guthix is my favourite god, followed by Saradomin. I like the balance he is, I never liked the extremely "good" or "bad". I always try to balance things while playing this game. And therefore I do feel more attracted to Guthix. Guthix also is the most powerfull god, only Zaros came close to the might of him. There might not be known too much of Guthix but he does play a vital role in the god stories of Runescape. He created runescape. And he saved it when the god war between Zamorak and Saradomin almost destroyed the lands.

arizark Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 lazy creator boring are my 3 words because he created what we know as gielinor but he never lets the confrontation between saradomin and zamorak become resolved he just lets them fight a little bit then trys to stop them pfft pathetic he must know saradomins forces will kick zammys butt :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharockslayer Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Guthix is just another guy who was anoyed by the loud sounds, so he complained about it, and ended the party :D Im turning more to Sara now, Ive did Guthix for a while but meh. Interrested in joining the cabbagy madness?

la la la Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Well, since Guthix is not a real god (no WAY!!), I will go by the advantages Guthix gives. His book is definitely the worst (+ 5 attk, +5 def), his magic spell is air strike compared to sarodomin strike, but one good thing is that he supports the void knights. This can be bad, too, in that he supports the void knights and all the pest-controlled high level immature kids you see. Sarodomin > Zamorak > Guthix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huta Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I can't believe there are so many Zamorak followers...after all, who wants to worship an ugly god-wannabe who almost got his butt kicked by Zaros and would have had it not been for the staff of a real god? Saradomin is all there is...the equality and fairness of good and order far outweighs the slight adavantages of chaos. There is no need of balance in a world filled with the light of truth, hmm? And three words for Guthix? Pathetic old wimp. 'Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cosinus Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Balance, Reality, Nature Guthix is the only realistic god, if there is a god at all. In the nature everything strides for balance, balance in population (for example mice eating plants, cat eating mice and so on), balance in ground/earth, which is why Guthix is the most realistic good. Also in the human world there are evil and good, balance in oppinions and type of human beings. Guthix is the correct aspect over the nature and the world! Way to go Guthix!

ElvargII Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Poor old Guthix, guys try to be nice about him not his fault he is a girl lol Nice comments guys & where are all the Guthixs followers?? Don't wast so much of your limited typing skills on ranting about the Gods just tell us their strong points and what you like about each of them. Couldn't resist. :D Anyway, Guthix is my personal favourite RuneScape god, followed by Saradomin. Why? Because it's (yes, it. It's neither male nor female, if I recall correctly) the most realistic god. Seriously, any god that has the power to reform the entirety of creation in a nanosecond is good in my eyes, especially considering it considers the effects said action would have on the balance and not just creating a universe worshipping it. So, my words are omnipotent, hibernation and balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenshinjapan Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Guthix is my favorite runescape god. Easy to not have some huge flame war with someone ingame when theres no "hate" for their (runescape) god. Plus the colors look the best :thumbsup: . And I really prefer to worship the actual God (:-w ). So my 3 words:balance, peace, and not real? :| YOU! ATTEND TET EVENTS! CLICK HERE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocobodude0 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I personally follow Saradomin, 'cause I like his colors and he's the good guy. Guthix's comcept of balance doesn't appeal to me, 'cause that means there'd be some evil, too. If Saradomin was the one and only god, there'd be no evil. So Guthix in three words: Inferior Saradomin wannabe :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
