This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Amberites are not known for being a nice bunch of people; but seriously, I think that the Greek Gods (and mortal heroes) beat them hands down for being dicks.

Aren't the Olympians the "Classical" role models for being dicks?

Yep, it's the douchebag Pantheon, one thing Ive never really seen Hollywood do. Quite liked Athena though, but even she could be a bit catty (Arachne anyone?)
