Notability
[edit]There are several questions about notability, and citation needed...
That is a tough row to hoe, as Cyric is a "detail" added to Dungeons and Dragons adventures to add flavor, to give major plot elements a reason for doing what they do, and so on.
Cyric, rather the holy symbol of Cyric, is used at least twice in the Original Baldur's Gate video (computer) game.
Mulahey, an evil cleric, bears the symbol of Cyric - but no other reference is really notable.
Basillus, a cleric gone mad, is surrounded by zombies he believes to be his family, in a self-destructive revelry that is a much richer use of the Cyric "lord of lies" proto-myth.
These uses are EXACTLY how Cyric is supposed to be used, within D&D - a framework to add imagination onto.
Cyric will therefore be noted in MANY published and unpublished D&D adventures by many authors.
Beyond that... I wonder if there is any notability at all.
There is a separate Forgotton Realms wiki reference... containing much the same information as the wikipedia wiki.
