I really like Mask from FR as a god of thieves and assassins and those who work in shadows, and I think a 4e style work up of him would be rad. I like FR’s Helm a lot and I think they (bc imo a reworked Helm should be NB or femme, not a dude) would fill a niche not served fully by Bahamut. Eberron’s The Traveller is excellent and could work as a twin of Mask, and have both be neutral with a complex relation to thievery, deceit, change, and maybe both assassins and “avengers” and revolutionaries. I’d upgrade The Red Witch from 4e to a lesser god, as well as the Lady of The White Well, and make them sisters of The Raven Queen. Finally I’d restructure the fey gods to more strongly reflect fey “courts” using times of day and aspects of the wild, with The Three Courts of The SunDawn; Melora, or introduce a Titania style fey goddessHighsun: A lesser deity of light and summer vibes, all wrath and passion and lightAfternoon: I’ve had a better name for this but I can’t recall, Corellon rules hereThe Three Moonlit Courts Dusk: Oberon, Dusk is a court associated with early autumn and with the transition from day into night, and is very “let’s recline and watch the sunset and drink wine and be horny but in a lazy way”Twilight: Also called the Vesper Court, ruled by The Raven Queen, the place in the Fey where the worlds of spirits are closestDeep Night: Sehanine’s domain, a mysterious and scary place, but also the place where the night is a shield and a comfort as much as a source of terror. The Three Wild CourtsThe Hunter’s Court: A roaming and half-feral court ruled by The Red Witch, and by whoever she has chosen or who has earned the right to lead The Wild Hunt. Hyrsam often resides here but is not bound to any court. The Court of The Sea: another court I have had a better name for that I forget, ruled by either Melora or a Mananan Mac Lyr type figureCourt of Mysteries: Ruled by The Lady of The White Well, is a court of oracles, fatespinners, witches, and the like. And but somewhere in there maybe Llolth should be made the deity of a Great Faerie Court, maybe Deep Night with RQ taking Twilight, and Sehanine taking The Hunter’s Court. I could be convinced to leave RQ out of the Seldarine but I don’t wanna. Anyway, the Seldarine would be opposed by the Fomorian deities and other dark deities that are related to the Fey but aren’t truly Fey. I’d also possibly replace or rework Avandra,  bringing a more Halfling-esque deity in that spot. I’d also make most actually fully unsveagebly evil deities into soemthing else. Asmodeus can be the King of Hell without being a god. Meanwhile Bane works as a god, being a sort of Ares meets brutally mercilessly efficient massacre deity of war. Llolth becomes a god with godlike domain and such, and is sort of the darkest face of The Fey. No more “trapped in hell” weirdness. Tiamat can also stay a deity but with aspects that people who aren’t psychotic would give reverence to, like righteous wrath, and ecstatic freedom, and unalloyed passion, and ambition/joy in exercising power given free riegn. All of which have very dangerous dark sides. I’d look for something more interesting than Kord, also.</blockquote>
