Selune and Tymora. Both regularly appear as Deities in my games despite the fact I don't play the realms.

Selune, Ilmater, Bane, Jergal, Auril

Sharess is probably my favorite, mostly because between she probably has the most extensive backstory of all of the gods of the realms (since she has roots in three different pantheons).

Eilistraee, Shar and Lathander are fairly close as well.

Seraphael,

Eqyptian, Faerunian and what else? I don't remember a third for Bast/Sharess. Btw the picture for her in DDG 3e is much better than in F&P 3e.

Azuth, because in the alternate Realms I'm designing he's very angry with "Mystra" for letting psionics, wild magic, and sorcerers (among other new, dangerous for wizards, magic) back into the Realms. A major schism/war will be occurring in the world I'm building between these two. What I haven't figured out yet is how Shar's shadow weave will play into all this.

OT, one of my players once worshipped Clorox, the deity of cleanliness. He spent most of the night trying to get gore off of everyone as they tore through their enemies.

Good: Torm
Neutral: Tempus
Evil: Bane

I guess I'd pick Torm overall, 'cause I like the idea of Good and Honor, and all that.

bane because you will serve bane or in death you will be made to serve bane! also torm because i like the opportunity to use the "strength and honor" line from gladiator and helm because i love the idea of the cold emotionless guardian watching his enemies gather against him and then pounding the crap out of them when they come.

VENGENCE!!!

It's all about Hoar (I prefer the old name, Assuran). My first paladin in 8 years of DnD is a paladin of Hoar, and damn is it fun. There's a somewhat fine distinction between "Justice"and "Vengence" and i like being on the side of the line that starts with V. Plus Hoar needs some more lines, he's barely mentioned in the FRG. It's a bad idea to shaft the god of vengence....
