[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 1677576, member: 1241"] [b]Converting nonhuman deities “Complete Divine” style[/b] For my next project I will be working on creating something like a “web enhancement” for The Complete Divine, focusing on expanding some of the lesser-known gods of nonhuman races. I provided more details on what gods I’m using and why (and ones I’m not using and why) in this thread: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=94776[/url] What I will not be doing (right now at least) is coming up with a set of stats like in 3E Deities and Demigods. What we will work on instead are the much easier and faster entries like those in The Complete Divine. Physical stats may come later, but for now I want to create a nice several-page book of information that DMs and players using non-standard characters alike can take advantage of. This is a long enough project, trust me – there are over 100 gods to work on! If you do not have Complete Divine, don’t worry – I will be posting some examples and explaining what is what. Some of the information we write will be taking from older or current sources, while some information we will get to make up from scratch using educated guesses. If you have any questions, please ask. Here are the gods I am intending on working with. We will be starting with a large number of deities found in the 2E Monstrous Mythology book. First of all are a number of gods who have been covered briefly in both The Complete Divine and Defenders of the Faith, that I would like to flesh out a little more: Annam Blibdoolpoolp Diirinka Eadro Great Mother Grolantor Hiatea Hruggek Iallanis Laogzed Maglubiyet Memnor Merrshaulk Panzuriel Sekolah Semuanya Shekinester Skoreaus Stonebones Skerrit Stronmaus Surtr Thrym Vaprak Besides these are quite a few deities who have not been used much since Monstrous Mythologies: Muamman Duathal of the dwarves Nebelun of the gnomes Khurgorbaeyag, Nomog-Geaya, and Bargrivyek of the goblins Grankhul and Skiggaret of the bugbears Gaknulak of the kobolds assorted goblinoid gods Kuraulyek, Meriadar, and Stalker Diinkerazan of the derro assorted gods of the Underdark: The Elder Elemental God, The Dark God, Maanzecorian of the mind flayers, Psilofyr of the myconids, and Gzemnid of the beholders Karontor and Diancastra of the giants Gorellik of the gnolls assorted gods of the skies and seas: Jazirian of the couatl, Koriel of the ki-rin, Persana of the tritons, Quorlinn of the kenku, Remnis of the giant eagles, Surminare of the selkies, Syranita of the aarakocra, Trishina of the dolphins, and Water Lion and Stillsong who have no followers “scaly” gods Parrafaire of the nagas, Ramenos of the bullywugs, and possibly Sess'innek of the lizardfolk (although technically he is a demon lord) “dark folk” gods Cegilune of the hags, Kanchelsis of the vampires, Mellifleur of the liches, and the lycanthrope gods: Squerrik, Balidor, Ferrix, Daragor, and Eshebala also the entirety of the sylvan pantheon (minus Skerrit): Titania, Oberon, Caoimhin of the killmoulis, Damh of the korreds and satyrs, Eachthighern of the unicorns and pegasi, Emmantiensien of the treants, Fionnghuala of the swanmays, Nathair Sgiathatch the pseudodragon, Squelaiche of the leprechauns, Verenestra of the nymphs and dryads, and The Queen of Air and Darkness of evil fey. After them, there are also a number of lesser-known gods, including several gods from Dragon Magazine: #63 – Dakarnok (kobold demigod) #119 – Tapann (korred god) and Ravanna (rakshasa god) #119 – Gods of the uldra #124 – Krocaa (aarakocra god) #155 and #236 – new elven gods #214 – Neogi gods #241 – The Forgotten God (yakfolk god) Annual #1 – Dukagsh (scro god) Alzrius tells me that there are four new elven gods in Dragon #251 – I do not have this issue handy just yet, but if you do please fill me in a bit on what can be found there. Cildarith found a number of gods from White Dwarf magazine. Several were gods of races that did not transition over to mainstream American D&D, but the following were gods of races that did: #39 – K'ooriall of the aarakocra, Ggorulluzg of the bullywugs, T'Ka-Boolk'na of the crabmen, and Phraarkilloorm of the dire corbies #40 – Hrussiall'k of the firenewts #41 – Kraada of the frostmen, Zrunta Mountainheart of the mountain giants, Klagg of the grimlocks, and Halnass and Quorggg of the lava children #42 – Firffuffl'nnb of the norkers, Ullathimon of the skulks, and A'Gallamiull of the xvarts Still not sure what to do with these, but we might just make use of some or all of them after we have gone through the others.
