REGIONAL LIST OF POWERS(According to 'cannon')
By Jay Hafner
This list has been a long-time-coming. How many times have you started a
campaign, and had to dig through stacks of books to find the gods of the
area? Too many, and nevermore!
I analyzed the following sources: FtA, Boxed Set, Folio, all GH-related
_Dragon/_Dungeon articles, Fate of Istus, Marklands, Iuz the Evil, Ivid the
Undying, Rary the Traitor, Vale of the Mage. I did not include the A-Z
modules or the Gord books.
Notes on completing the list:
For purity sake, I have only listed the 'official' mentions. I leave it up
to you to complete the list with your own campaign material. When deciding
upon the other powers of the area, one must consider the widespread human
powers listed according to racial area. The demi-humans should also be
considered. Note that many of the powers not listed because there is not a
big to-do about their worshoip; they are simply revered when the
appropriate
time arrives(
i.e.travel, love, luck, etc.)
Aside Note: Pre-war lands ruled by priests: Almor, Ekbir,Highfolk, Ket,
Medegia, Pale, Sunndi, Ulek County, Veluna. These lands may worship entire
pantheons, or may be monotheistic(Pale).
WIDESPREAD WORSHIP:
All of the gods listed as Common on the Godlist are at worshipped anywhere
across the Flanaess. Those
with single racial listings are usually worshipped only by those lands that
contain that race of people. I have
divided the widespread powers down into their popularity among the lands.
