However, I've decided certain things. All races and societies worship the same gods, even though they may not realize it.Nelora the  human mother goddess in one area is Elanora, Elka to the dwarves, Ellerani to the elves, etc... Their positions, titles and portfolios shift a bit, and the alignments of their worshipers likewise.I also have lesser gods, saints, and minor local  "gods". They may come and go, fade out of existence, or grow to greater power, and even eventually replace a greater god. The truth is that NO god is a true deity. Such things don't exist. ALL are really mortal beings who have risen to immense power and then taken on worshippers (or have killed a "god" and stolen his worshippers). This has been happening for so many cycles that most "mortals" don't realize it any more. Since planar travel and communication beyond the very closest planes is VERY rare, this works fine.
