Forgotten Realms - What Gods and Languages Does Kara-Tur Have?

[Lorthanoth]

I thoroughly recommend the Kara-Tur boxed set. I got the pdf from Paizo and there is LOADS in there. Pick up Hordelands for free from the Wizards website (might take some hunting) - another awesome boxed set.

I know there's at least one person ranger on this forum who never shuts up about Kara-Tur.

He should be able to help you.

Please feel free to ignore me. I want you to ignore me.

As for languages: the Shou speak Shou. Heck, can't even remember the name for the Kara-Tur version of Japan.

Kozakura and Wa are the Japan analogs, I think.

IIRC, the 3.x Deities and Demigods has a selection of D&D-ified Chinese and Japanese deities that you could use in a more traditional D&D way. If not, I'm positive the 2ed Legends and Lore does.

That's not a Deities & Demigods section, but rather, an article in Dragon Magazine. Issue 283, May 2001. Cover is a cleric with a flail, beating up a ghoul, with the words SMITE EVIL in big letters next to it.

Starting on page 34, it gives some very basic info for the Greek Pantheon, Celtic Pantheon, Egyptian Pantheon, Aztec Pantheon, Chinese Pantheon, Norse Pantheon, and a sample mixed pantheon of mythological deities and D&D racial deities (for the core races, like Gruumsh for orcs/half-orcs, and Moradin for dwarves). It only lists about a dozen or so deities for each pantheon, with their name, title/descriptor (like "Ra, God of the Sun"), alignment, domains, and typical worshippers.

Do they accept money order?

There's a lot about Kara-Tur languages in OA6: Ronin's Challenge, available as a free download from Wizards.

I loved that box-set and I can only hope that when (and if) WoTC resurrects OA for 4e, they return to Kara-Tur.

I think 3e DDG has only Egyptian, Greek, Greyhawk, and Norse Pantheon stuff. 1e and 2e DDG/Legends and Lore had Chinese and Japanese pantheons though.

No idea - check out their site.

RPGNow used to accept money order, but that was before they merged with DriveThruRPG and OBS.
