[QUOTE="kerakus, post: 1851111, member: 20951"] I run a homebrew campaign but still utilize the core pantheon, mostly for ease of reference and saving myself some work. Hextor is heavily prominent with an uneasy alliance with the PC's kingdom, and featuring a number of converts among the hobgoblin tribes. Vecna is a behind the scenes manipulator of much of what is currently going on in the campaign. The party's cleric follows Boccob, but since he's the "Uncaring God" he hasn't played a significant role in the campaign. One thing that I did for most of the pantheon is set up a number of factions and divisions in the churches based on the various combinations of domains. For example, the branch of the church of Pelor whose followers choose the Healing and Sun domains are ardent foes of the undead, turning their healing spells into attacks against the undead and going on holy crusades against the undead. Meanwhile, the followers of the Good/Healing branch are the community priests who tend the lay worshippers, conduct marriages, etc. It creates conflict among followers of the same god and makes for interesting roleplaying potential.
