The Tabletop RPG example for Scion is a non-sequitor. Frankly, Scion averts this trope- the Gods don't need mortal worship at all; their legend ratings are actually their standings amongst themselves, not with regards to mortals. In fact, the Gods have hidden themselves away from Mortals to avoid being bound by Fate, soemthing that occurs when any mortal, worshiper or not, encounters displays of divine power.

"Any religion that states that non-believers are punished."

I don't understand that quotation. I fail to see the logic. Just because a belief in a religion states that everyone should be a worshiper doesn't mean that the deity is dependent on said worshiping.

I think it should be removed, but I don't want to do it without saying something here first.

I propose delete "•The Nameless Ones in Ursula Le Guin's The Tombs of Atuan" IIRC they were Sealed Evil In A Can. The rituals were to keep the old ones inside the eponymous Tombs.
