Canon:Deity


 * You may be looking for a list of deities.

Deities rule the various aspects of human existence: good and evil, law and chaos, life and death, knowledge and nature. Across the world, people and creatures worship a great number of varied deities. Most often these deities are worshiped among the common races, by adventurers, and by villains.

Dieties are often the most powerful creatures of Dungeons and Dragons. Each deity has a deific rank, holy symbol, portfolio or area of concern, and can grant domains to worshipers.

Deities and clerics are tightly coupled, since deities grant spells to clerics. Paladins likewise are coupled to lawful good deities for their power.
