I'm working on a new pantheon, based on the mythology and culture of New Zealand. A draft can be found here (pdf), or in the Downloads section.
Right now, I am working on the "How To Use This Document" section. My goal is to have some tips and suggestions for fitting this pantheon into different game worlds, like Forgotten Realms, Kulan, Burning Sky, Dragonlance, and Eberron. The trouble is, I don't know these game worlds well enough to do them justice. And while the product was originally created for 3rd Edition, I would love to get some feedback on how it could be modified to fit the 4th Edition game and its Points of Light setting.
If you use a published game setting and have some ideas on how and where the Fire Islands pantheon would fit into it, I could really use your help. So far, I only have notes for the Mystara setting:
[SBLOCK=Mystara]
Mystara
In the Mystara game setting, there is a cluster of islands south of the city of Specularum, in the Sea of Dread, called the Thanegoith Archipelago. This large chain of tropical islands would be an ideal setting for the Fire Islands pantheon.
This archipelago is also the setting of module X1: The Isle of Dread. In this adventure, each of the village shamans could be devoted to one of the seven major deities of the Fire Island pantheon (Rangi, Papa, Haumia, Rongo, Tāne, Tū, and Tāwhiri.) The fallen temple on the islands mainland could be filled with ancient relics devoted to these same gods...and the forgotten race of kopru could be worshippers of Hine, Mahuika, or Whiro.[/SBLOCK]
