Would it be horrifically OOC for me to be playing Pureblade as an Albarian Paladin who follows Albarian gods?

Now, I took care of the 'but you get favors from the 39!!!' issue. I'm claiming Pureblade sees himself as a diplomat of his nation's gods, and thus should still be respectful to the local divine powers. Because of that, he offers reverence to certain gods at times. While the favor orb is then offered and the Kermorian gods are pleased, they don't grant him a favor because (while the act is nice), they aren't his gods. Instead, his own Albarian gods give him a favor because they want to repay him for being a good little diplomat and making nice with the local divine.

I'm also (very slowly) writing up some random lore to explain how other Paladin abilities (soulstones and glyphs, namely) make sense for an Albarian Paladin to have. It focuses on Orisas (sp?) and the contents of her orb, mainly. Soulstones will be like shards of her orb, and the glyphs Paladins use are the invoked powers of those within the orb she carries. This will also keep Kermorian and Albarian soul systems in sync, since both will deal with honor.

That is pretty much how Humm is about the Eu, Tenemlor, and Demrris. Humm, actually is 90% convinced that the 39 are identities based upon the prevalant misconceptions of the Three.

Only because I want to make this post short and less detailed, I'll be semi OOC in my explanation.

Pureblade sees dieties in a Greek sense. You got gods thats reside over certain areas that they choose. So Kermoria has it's set of deities controling it because they claim that land, Albaria has it's own section, and Prydean-world-USA has it's three doing their shindig or whatever.

They tend to leave each other alone because it's not worth the trouble, and when one dieties' people invade the other, they (the dieties from both areas) see it as all in good fun and an entertaining way to see who's been leading their people better.
