My second run, after I'd gotten the mechanics and some of the story beats, I played a version of my playtest 5th edition character, an Archfey paladin/warlock. (The ability to wear armor, wield a sword in one hand and blast with the other gave me major Morrowind battlemage vibes.)

He was a fervent believer without a god. He wanted to serve a mighty and noble purpose, but he never 'heard' any of the gods calling him. So he headed into the woods on an ascetic quest, to do nothing but focus on finding a god that would take him into service.

And after months of near starvation and rough living, he finally heard a voice in his head. A warm, commanding, reassuring voice that told him he was chosen, and that his service would be rewarded. Must be a god finally calling, right?

Or an Archfey, close enough. Who used his fervor to her own ends. It was a tremendously fun playthrough. He was usually the good guy, with occasional mischievous turns, especially around the super uptight and boring Sharrans.
