– 'role playing', one of three fundamentals. The pantheons employed in D&D provide a useful framework for creating fantasy characters, as well as governments and even worlds. ''Dungeons and Dragons'' may be useful in teaching classical mythology. ''D&D'' draws inspiration from a variety of mythologies, but takes great liberty in adapting them for the purpose of the game. Because the Core Setting of 3rd Edition is based on the World of Greyhawk, the Greyhawk gods list contains many of the deities listed here, and many more.

Publication history

The first official publication to detail god-like beings for use in the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' game was '' Gods, Demi-Gods & Heroes'', published in 1976 as the fourth supplement for the original edition. This work was superseded by the '' Deities & Demigods'' source book, which was first published in 1980. The first printing included the

, but both this and the Melnibonéan mythos were removed by the third printing because of potential copyright issues. In 1985, the book was renamed ''Legends & Lore'' due to concerns about bad publicity. The Babylonian, Finnish, nonhuman, and Sumerian content were removed to allow room for expansion of the remaining mythoi. In 1992, '' Monster Mythology'' was published as a sourcebook for the second edition of ''Dungeons & Dragons''. This work re-introduced detailed information on the deities of several non-human pantheons. The

Characteristics

Like in e.g. Greek mythology, deities in Dungeons & Dragons have a great variety of moral outlooks and motives which have to be considered by cleric player characters. In some editions of the game, deities were given statistics, allowing powerful player characters to kill a god like a powerful monster. For gaming purposes, they are also differentiated by a number of standardized characteristics:

Ranks of divine power

Each deity has a divine rank, which determines how much power the entity has, from lowest to highest: *Quasi-deities or hero deities. Beings of this rank are immortal but usually cannot grant spells to worshippers. *Demigods. They are the weakest of the deities, and are able to grant spells and perform a few deeds that are beyond mortal limits. *Lesser deities. These entities can perform more powerful deeds than demigods can, and have keener senses where their portfolios are concerned. *Intermediate deities. These entities control larger godly realms than demigods or lesser gods. *Greater deities. These entities typically have millions of mortal worshippers, and they command respect even among other deities. Some rule over pantheons of other deities. *Overdeities. These entities are beyond the understanding and knowledge of mortals and care nothing for worshippers.

Portfolios

Every deity has certain aspects of existence over which it has dominion, power, and control. Collectively, these aspects represent a deity's portfolio.

Domains

Each deity that can grant spells has multiple domains that give clerics access to extra spells and abilities from that domain. Which domains are associated with a deity is largely a function of the deity's portfolio.

Divine hierarchy

Many deities are arranged in pantheons, which are often led by Greater deities which are their direct superiors. The individual deities in a pantheon may not be forced to obey their superiors, although they typically respect and fear the superior deity.

''Dungeons & Dragons'' 3rd edition

There are over 100 deities in the Greyhawk setting, and when creating ''Dungeons & Dragons'' 3rd Edition Wizards of the Coast selected a subset to become iconic deities. They selected and altered deities to correspond to "iconic" aspects of core D&D. Most core deities are human deities; except for the chief gods of the demihuman races. Certain aspects of the deities were altered to make them more generic – for example: the "Core" Heironeous favors the longsword (in order to make the favored weapon of the "God of Chivalry" more traditionally knight-like), as contrasted with the original "Greyhawk" Heironeous, who favors the battleaxe. The designation of "greater" vs. "intermediate" comes from ''Legends & Lore'' (1990). It is not used in any edition of the ''Player's Handbook'', but it is used in ''

These three alternative faiths were described in the third edition ''Deities and Demigods'' book.

The Faith of the Sun

The Faith of the Sun is a fictional,

monotheistic Monotheism is the belief that there is only one deity, an all-supreme being that is universally referred to as God. Cross, F.L.; Livingstone, E.A., eds. (1974). "Monotheism". The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church (2 ed.). Oxford: Oxford ...

religion presented in and constructed according to the guidelines given for monotheistic religions in 3rd Edition Deities and Demigods. Being monotheistic, it of course consists of only one deity (though said deity is described as having two aspects; a creator one and a destroyer one): *Taiia, greater goddess of creation, destruction, mortal life and death.

Following the Light

Following the Light is a fictional dualistic religion presented in and constructed according to the guidelines given for dualistic religions in 3rd Edition Deities and Demigods. Being dualistic, it consists of two, polar-opposite deities: *Elishar, intermediate deity of positive energy, light and prophecy. *Toldoth, intermediate deity of negative energy, darkness and destruction.

Dennari

The faith of Dennari is a fictional mystery cult, presented in and constructed according to the guidelines given for mystery cults in 3rd Edition '' Deities & Demigods''. It worships a single deity of the same name: *Dennari, lesser goddess of earth, liberation and suffering.

Nondeity powers

Similar to monster powers, these are not true deities but very powerful extraplanar beings. These however do not even profess to be gods (though many still have designs on godhood).

Primus

Primus is the leader of the modrons and is the epitome of order, and possesses god-like powers in the game. Artist Tony DiTerlizzi became fascinated by Primus and the other modrons when he got the challenge to redesign them from their first edition appearance for the Planescape campaign setting. Reviewer Scott Haring found the process successful as the "once-silly Modrons" were "given a new background and purpose that makes a lot more sense".

Titans

"Titans are closer to the well spring of life and thus experience more pronounced emotion including Deity-like fits of rage. In ages past some rebelled against the deities themselves..."

The Lady of Pain

The Lady of Pain is an enigmatic being who oversees the city of Sigil in the plane of the Outlands. Almost nothing is known about her; her origin, her race, her motives and her level of power are all obscure, although she is sometimes shown to have absolutely immense power. The Lady of Pain refuses to tolerate anyone who worships her, killing those who do so. Again; virtually nothing is known about her, apart from the fact that she has the power to slay gods who displease her.

– A god of good and possibly peace, he was killed by his archangel and exarch, Asmodeus.

. * Lakal – God of Healing and Mercy who was also her own Astral Dominion. She was an impersonal deity who communicated with her chosen people, the Quom, through "ecstatic moments of personal communion." She extolled mercy and urged her followers to dedicate themselves to pursuits that benefited the whole cosmos. Lakal's death was accidental – when Bahamut battled Nihil, the Primordial of nothingness, the pair crashed into Lakal. Bahamut was able to use the distraction to slay Nihil, but the primordial's death throes also caused Lakal to explode. The surviving quom now roam the planes, retrieving any shards of Lakal that they can find, including those unknowingly consumed by living creatures. Such creatures, including humanoids and player characters, are considered collateral damage in the quom's quest to restore Lakal. Ironically, even if the quom succeed in their quest, the restored Lakal would be disgusted with their methods. * Maglubiyet – God of Goblinoids. Defeated by Bane. *

. * Tuern – God of War. Killed by Bane. * Nusemnee – Nusemnee was the daughter of Zehir. When she failed to assassinate a high priest of Pelor, she was abandoned and then mortally wounded by a paladin's holy blade. Expecting only death, she was surprised when the high priest healed her, showing her compassion and forgiveness. Intrigued, she decided to honor a promise to the high priest and aid him in his holy quest until a time that she could save his life in turn. Nusemnee thus became a symbol of redemption. When she finally died at the end of the high priest's quest, she rose again, this time as a minor goddess. In this form, she opposed her father by offering redemption to all who would turn away from evil. She was later killed by a poison that could kill anything—even a deity—that was distilled from Zehir's blood.
