[QUOTE="Hexmage-EN, post: 8014380, member: 79428"] The Raven Queen is a good example here, too. In 4E, she became goddess of death in the Points of Light setting after magically killing the god Nerull and absorbing his divine spark. Her role was to guide the souls of the dead to their final destinations. In 5E's Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, she was an elf queen who tried to use a ritual to become a goddess, but ultimately failed due to the interference of the nagpa and became some kind of bizarre entity that harvests memories. In 5E's Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, the Raven Queen is once again said to be a goddess of death who gained her divine spark from magically killing another god of the dead (furthermore, her actions inspired other spellcasters in the world of Exandria to try and manipulate godhood, including Vecna, who in the Exandria setting first became a god on that world). The Raven Queen is established in each case to be situated in the Shadowfell, which if I understand correctly in 5E lore is shared between all worlds. [/QUOTE]
