Message: <blockquote data-quote="Razz" data-source="post: 2818361" data-attributes="member: 3014">Hell no! I left the list the same.In fact, I use the 2E Forgotten Realms list for my 3E games. You know, the deities they seem to have forgotten are still in the realms like the Draconic Pantheon (no way in hell my dragons are going to serve puny human deities like Bane or Cyric) the Goblin Pantheon and others.I like the aspect that Forgotten Realms has a rather "religious" tone to it. Makes it unique from all the other campaigns. Greyhawk has just as many deities, so the whole "too many deities" thing is not that bad, if you know how to work it right.Not every deity has to be fully established in the Realms, some are small cults or their worshipers are seclusive, or they just don't bother making a presence in the Realms like the Faerunian deities do.I added one deity to the Realms, in fact, Sardior the Ruby Dragon, deity of the gem dragons, knowledge, and psionics. Also, there's dead deities still being worshipped.If you cull the deities from FR, it loses its appeal. At least to me. I like the fact that there's practically a "deity for everyone" sort of deal. Otherwise, realistically, the creatures in your world will developed their own deities to fill in the ones that are missing and you'll end up with increased deities in your games anyway. Why bother culling them?</blockquote>
