That's a god idea

That is a horrible pun.

That is a horrible pun.

It was actually a typo, but I did noticed it before I hit post. So I could have corrected it, I just chose not too

I read the original post as "good" (mental autocorrect?). It wasn't until the terrible pun post that I caught it

So will we see another iteration of this tome for 5E? What pantheons would it have? Any fictitious ones, like the gods of Westeros? Maybe a voudou pantheon of loas? There are lots of possibilities...

I wouldn't mind Ebla Pantheon (a mix of Mesopotamian, Canaanite, and native Ebla Deities among others), Hititte Pantheon.

FR's full Pantheons.

IIRC, they did FR's full Pantheons in 2e and it was two pretty hefty books. I think I owned both at one time. Someone truly, truly loved clerics who wrote that book. Aren't there like a couple of hundred different divinities in FR?

3 hefty books and I think FR's Pantheon is bigger now then it was then because MTOFs unified the Demihuman Pantheons. Plus the Sundering raised dead gods back to life and allowed others to come.

Honestly I don't know how many Gods there are in FR, it's never been completely clear, especially since FR had huge amount if Spaces unexplored, and has multiple human Pantheons. It also depends on the book and era.

What I would really like to see would be an update and expansion of the Historical Reference series with details on the different cultures' pantheons. Who couldn't use a reference book about the Celts and their gods with information about their customs and myths?

Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes.

Around 120. Greyhawk actually does have pretty much the same Number of deities.

Most demihuman and monstrous deities are multhispheric and the same in both worlds and the Number of unique human deities is almost the same
