Quick Question: ASAP Evil Elven God

[Cevalic]

Just about to start a game, and I need the name of an evil elven god. Anyone know one or a few of them?

Thanks.

Well, there's always the Drow Goddess Lolth...

 

[Cevalic]

I'd thought of that, but it has to be a elf god, not drow.

Lolth is an old favorite.

You can also use a demon-prince or arch-devil.

Well, the only "elf" gods are Lolth and Corellon Larethian (unless you want to invent one, of course). However, just because those are elf gods, doesn't mean an elf has to worship them. If you need an evil god for elves to worship or something like that, have their patron deity be Wee Jas the god of death and magic (since the Elf's favored class is Wizard). Or, just alter it slighty so that Wee Jas is an Elf god as well, if you want to. Hope that helps

Any specific campaign setting? There are a lot of FR Elven Gods...but if you're looking at core rules, then Lolth is it.

In 1st edition Unearthed Arcana, there is an appendix with non-human deities, a few of them elven. If you have the 1st Ed Unearthed Arcana in a box somewhere, it's worth checking that.

I do have it, but the box is very far away...

Make one up ! Or did you think doing a GIS for it ?

GIS for "Evil elven god"

There's a few interesting entries, especially this one.

Well, the only "elf" gods are Lolth and Corellon Larethian (unless you want to invent one, of course).

Actually, that's not at all true. There are many elven gods (the good ones being collectively called the Seldarine). The thing is that many of them haven't been updated to 3E yet, and most of the ones that have have only been featured in Forgotten Realms products, which is apparently misleading people into thinking that they're Realms-specific gods - they aren't, it's just that everything outside of FR has become so streamlined that WotC won't mention anything else about the Seldarine in "generic" 3E products.

That being said, there are elven gods who are evil but not drow. The best you'll get is probably Fenmarel (can't recall his last name) a CN demigod of vengeance, who utterly hates the drow, wanting them all massacred into extinction.

Another good choice might be the Queen of Air and Darkness, a fey Intermediate goddess who became evil when she touched a major artifact that drove her mad, some ten-faceted black crystal.

Thanks everybody. We've got one that we'll use. Now, on to the game.

Thanks again.

Well, what did you pick?
