[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9512472, member: 2209"] I agree completely, all we have is the gods, and the distinctions between greater removed gods, lesser gods who can be encountered potentially including in the world, and quasi-deities with some divine power running around the world. In Greyhawk we have a specifically incomplete list of some of the gods including lesser god Iuz who rules an expanding kingdom directly as a person in the world. Eberron is not like that though. Even in the 14 PH deity list it has an other faiths list with suggested domains for clerics that includes the Blood of Vol philosophy, The Silver Flame, The Dragon cults, the two different elven ancestor religions, and the Path of Light philosophy. This is in contrast to the 14 and 24 greyhawk lists of polytheistic deities with no listing of alternative religions. Eberron is very cool but it is a departure from the default D&D pantheistic religious and cosmology models. I personally prefer a more Eberron approach to religion and cosmology and use that type of a setup in my homebrew mashup setting with Greyhawk gods as some of my regional "Old Gods" pantheons in my world. From the text though I expect a default D&D style pantheistic religion in Greyhawk, not diverse religious models with monotheism among the flavors you will find. [/QUOTE]
