===Polytheism===
Polytheism is also fairly familiar to western readers as well, likely because they know about the Greek or Roman Pantheons. Bonus points if you thought of Hinduism first, one of the largest faiths in the world simply because it is in India. Polytheism typically has a pantheon of gods, and some are on unequal power levels compared to the others. Polytheistic faiths tend to be very diverse and colorful, and this is probably the reason why it attracts so much attention, as it is seen as more interesting than the "boring" monotheistic religions. Each god is a unique character with his own role to play in the universe, and mythology is usually pretty rich with these ones.  

Culture can easily influence how practitioners of a polytheistic faith practice their faith, and some even pick and choose what they believe while disregarding others, meaning they'd fit right in with [[Star Wars]] fans! This tends to lead to a lot of divergence in belief and alternate takes on common tales, and the morals of the story can change quite easily and fluidly.

Two examples of polytheism readily known to /tg/ are the Eldar Pantheon (A more traditional polytheistic faith, though Khaine is stronger than some gods because he likes to punch people in the face) or Chaos, because duh <s>five</s> four major gods, and practitioners can choose which to serve.

====Henotheism====
Henotheism is a subset of polytheism, which involves believing in the existence of multiple gods, or being open to their existence, but worshipping one as supreme.  This can be found in multiple religions, including Hinduism and Zoroastrianism.  It is also known as monolatrism.

As stated above, two examples related to /tg/ are the Eldar and the Chaos Gods.  In fact, both parties acknowledge the existence gods outside their pantheons, but are naturally oppose them.  Both sides can choose which gods they serve, such as Eldar either becoming an Aspect Warrior to put Khaine in pre-eminence or Cegorach as a Harlequin.
