Stig79: She isn't human or anything else. She pics the shape she wants. A symbol like that isn't a photo either. It is how the artist figured said goddess might look like. In this case, it looks very, very much like the official symbol of Waukeen - the patron deity of Amn.

Hickory: You're completely delusional and it's clear there is no point in further discussion. Have at it...
Says the guy that believed Jaheira - a druid, didn't follow any gods. And that also claimed a level 20 thief was more powerful than a level 20 mage...

I never said either of those things, though you're going to continue to claim that I did. You're pathetic.
I asked someone relevant (not going to name-drop). It is indeed Waukeen BUT not completely. It is a Yin\Yang symbolism of several things at once, with Waukeen (Amn) as the basis for it. Small bits were added to make the logo represent several things. The shadowy face was to symbolize the Drow matrons, as well as the vampires and all in all the evil people you can chose to have dealings with. Vice versa with the light part of the symbol. The dark\light is also referring to the player character, and the good\evil conflict within him\her. So the Logo, cleverly enough, actually covers most of the game in one piece of art.

The coin the faces are on is a symbol of Athkatla - the city of Coins. It is bladed in this case, for obvious reasons.

"Hickory: That's D&D rot, hence it's stupid. Druids don't worship nor get powers from any gods."

"Hickory: Funny that, since in all my time traveling with Jaheira I never once saw any temple or altar dedicated to Silvanus, nor did I ever see/hear Jaheira pray, worship or utter a single word to her 'deity'. It's D&D rot and it's stupid. "
(http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Jaheira Says it right here that she is a druid of Silvanus.

""Khalid? Silvanus let him hear my vow... If I must, I shall empty this entire city of all within to find his killer... So do I swear."

She also says something like "Silvanus guide his light" when Khalid is found dead as well. And she mentions Silvanus plenty during BG2.

During the Druid Stronghold quest Silvanus is mentioned a bit as well.

So...it is not D&D that is is stupid, it is you. The information has been right in front of you while you have been playing the game.)



Yeah.....there is is. Links + quotes and all. Even a lengthy reply to your quote. Congratulations. You just revealed yourself as the liar you are.

The official symbol of Waukeen, from the Forgotten Realms Campaign setting (3-3.5ed) page 255.

Pretty much identical to the head on the BG2 logo. Headdress included.

Hickory: You are so funny. I'm sorry to have burst your little bubble. I'm sorry you *so* want it to be who it clearly isn't. Now just get over it.
