I'm not sure if this is correct or not, but it SEEMS wrong..
Listed under shargaas and yurtrus the cleric alignments are LN, CN and NE.
Both deities are NE, but arent they supposed to have clerics of LE, NE & CE?
This is also causing casting illegalities in one of my characters, if they really are meant to have LN clerics these orc gods can somebody confirm it?

According to 3e, Shargaas' cleric alignments are CE, CN, and NE, and Yurtrus' cleric alignments are CN, LN, and NE.

Yeah I'll believe what you're reading it just seems strange that yurtrus has LN clerics and not LE clerics.

I wholeheartedly agree, but I'll also add that there are those that make even less sense.

The "one step rule" for cleric alignments is infamous for the plethora of exceptions to it.

Theres an official article here that tries to standardise based on the deities alignment.
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20050329a
In effect it says that a NEUTRAL EVIL deity can have clerics of LAWFUL EVIL, NEUTRAL EVIL and CHAOTIC EVIL.
You can ONLY be a TRUE NEUTRAL cleric if you deity is ALSO true neutral.
Thats the standardisation, I dont know if you want to update, but I'd sure be happy if you did.
LN and CN clerics to a NEUTRAL EVIL or NEUTRAL GOOD deity just doesnt seem right from any perspective I look at it.
