Actually, maybe the surface pantheon doesn't matter so much. I can't see how I can reasonably be a cleric of a surface deity if I don't speak any surface languages.
With the selection of bonus languages available, the only good deities I can think of that would be in my cultural range are those in the dwarven pantheon (the only list of those I have avilable is in the FRCS), plus Eilistrae. They all require you to be either dwarf or elf to become their cleric, don't they? If you relax that requirement I'll choose from among them, no prob.
Edit:
I'm already getting ideas for backstories. Either the Silverbeard, Dumathoin, or Eilistraee would work great for me if you decide that they'll accept my kobold as a cleric.
-- If not, I'll think about how T'rikrik could have come by one of the gods of the Cruel Light.
Drake has known he was different from the day he hatched. For one thing he just can’t understand the spiteful way his fellow Kobolds act. In his mind and his dreams Drake can see a great city made of metal and gems where he can be free and where his people should be living in harmony. He told his chieftain of this and it caused quite a stir in their caves. Drake just knows that when he is near that Kobold city he will be able to sense it and lead his people to a new way of life.
Drake looks like a normal Kobold with the exception that he has some Brass scales mixed in with the green and his eyes have a copper hue. He and rest of the tribe understand that he is of the “Blood” and are a bit fearful of just how powerful he may become. Drake’s whole being is focused on making a better life for his people, even though he is not sure if the majority of them deserve it.

Okay, I'm gonna stick us in the Forgotten Realms. They've already given me a world, I might as well use it. As for dieties, that opens up the FR pantheon, and I will allow you whatever patron diety you wish. I trust you to come up with a good explanation about it!!
I like FR. Actually I have never really played a D&D game anywhere else.
I'm in if you can manage 7 players. I'll start making the character now, probably ready tomorrow.
