Editing Io (section)

==Worshipers==
Io is primarily worshiped by Dragons and Dragonborn, though the cult is particularly small. Mostly because no-one actually knows what motivates Io to do anything.

Supposedly, True Dragons feel the will of Io in their consciousness from time to time, so even though Io does not actually do much, all dragons agree that Io exists. But when you get dragons together they cannot agree on what alignment Io actually takes, with each race of dragons feeling absolutely certain that Io shares their alignment and represents the epitome of "Draconic behaviour".

It is little wonder then that Dragons get turned off by organized religion when their primary god cant even be consistent. 
Amongst other races, particularly Dragonborn, worship of Io can find a bit more purchase, though his cult still pales in comparison to that of [[Bahamut]] and [[Tiamat]] who at least are far more consistent and have goals that have broader appeal.

Anyone who views dragons with awe or wishes to imitate them can turn to Io for guidance. Similarly, as a god of "Balance" and acceptance of manifold alignments, Io makes a good choice for anyone of the [[Stupid Neutral]] school of ethics.

DMs who want Io to have some semblance of consistency without using doublethink are advised to look up the "Blind men and the elephant" fable.
