As a fantasy game I hope they keep it like that, a fantasy.. religion just irritates me.. even in videogames..

    Carbuncle: This creature was alleged to be seen in Latin America. Legends say the Carbuncle has some sort of jewel on its head.

    Quetzalcoatl: a Mesoamerican deity whose name comes from the Nahuatl language and has the meaning of "feathered serpent". Again, related to the Maya.

    Ifrit: are supernatural creatures in Arabic and Islamic cultures. They are in a class of infernal Jinn, spirits below the level of angels, noted for their strength and cunning. An ifrit is an enormous winged creature of fire, either male or female, who lives underground and frequents ruins.

    Leviathan: is a sea monster referred to in the Bible. In Demonology, the Leviathan is one of the seven princes of Hell and its gatekeeper (see Hellmouth).

    Odin: is a major god in Norse mythology and the ruler of Asgard (!sounds like Ishgard!)

    Ramuh (rama): is considered to be the seventh avatar of Vishnu in Hinduism, and a king of Ayodhya in ancient Indian Puranas.

    Shivah: is a major Hindu deity, and is the destroyer god or transformer among the Trimurti, the Hindu Trinity of the primary aspects of the divine. God Shiva is a yogi who has notice of everything that happens in the world and is the main aspect of life. Yet one with great power, he lives a life of a sage at Mount Kailash.

    Garudah: is a large mythical bird or bird-like creature that appears in both Hindu and Buddhist mythology.

    Pheonix: is a mythical sacred firebird that can be found in the mythologies of the Arabian, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese and (according to Sanchuniathon) Phoenicians.

    Titan: In Greek mythology, the Titans were a race of powerful deities, descendants of Gaia and Uranus, that ruled during the legendary Golden Age.

    Fenrir: n Norse mythology, Fenrir is a monstrous wolf.

    Bahamut: is a vast fish that supports the earth in Arabian mythology. In some sources, Bahamut is described as having a head resembling a hippopotamus or elephant

    Kujata: A bull generally thought to be resting on the head of Bahamut in Arabian mythology.

    Lakshmi: is the Hindu goddess of wealth, prosperity (both material and spiritual), light, wisdom, fortune, fertility, generosity and courage; and the embodiment of beauty, grace and charm.

    The two of you might want to take a second look at the game you've been playing. Final Fantasy games have always incorporated an undeniable amount mythological elements from just about all of the religions of the world and have used them for it's foundation. There is nothing wrong in asking for a greater presence and involvement of the Twelve (gods) and Primals (demi-gods) that are the very foundation of FFXIV. Each player has taken a vow to a specific deity that contributes to the lore and immersion of the game. It's only logical that these deities have some sort of meaningful purpose and importance.
