Honestly I've never really enjoyed how D&D has generally handled deities

I thought 3rd Edition did it best, but even then there was plenty of room for improvement.

Yondalla is judging you.

As a D&D goddess she understands focusing fire.

Right. The historical gods have legends. The D&D gods only have lore. Stories are more impactful and lasting than bland details.

We're having a much more interesting time using a Celtic pantheon (did a lot of homework, borrowed a lot of tales that get incorporated into daily activities and speech, like the priests who carry cow dung around to bless crops or the now-disavowed practice* involving a white horse that caused a big stir when a local gossip started a bad rumor accusing a PC baron of starting up that old practice).

Gamers may already have heard of some of these names and stories, so they're easier than a Realms pantheon where players new to the setting have no idea what's up with Helm.

*you'll have to look it up, not appropriate for forums but hilarious

Athena 36

And both of them are better then a god who is destined to die in a self-fulfilling prophecy from a beast he abused and chained up for most of his life.

In Odin's defence, <edit> Odin </edit> is a dick.

I've always assumed Helm is the god of hats.
