D&D 5E [5e FR] Per Ed Greenwood, the drow deities Eilistraee and Vhaeraun are alive post-Sundering

If you are talking about the 5e PHB, the list there is incomplete (mainly racial deities are missing). If you are talking about previous editions, then yeah.

She was the only deity detailed in the 3e FRCS but not mentioned in the 5e PHB. I only noticed that when my player chose her as a patron.

Oh, I see. But still, beside Eilistraee and Vhaeraun, some currently active deities are missing from the 5e PHB list (and mainly the racial ones). Most of the Dwarven pantheon, Hoar (which is confirmed as active, since he is one of the deities served by the Order of the Gauntlet), Erevan Ilesere, Shevarash and other deities of the Seldarine on top of my mind.

"Irennan, yes, there can at the present time in the Realms be male clergy of Eilistraee (no changedance necessary).
SOME of their followers are still foes (humans even of the same family and/or political bent and/or organization can disagree fervently, as we're all well aware, and this applies here, too), and Eilistraee and Vhaeraun remain very different in outlook and character...but they now UNDERSTAND each other very thoroughly, and make allowances for each other's differing aims, styles, and strivings far more than they hitherto did..."
