Below is a list of deities by portfolio. I don't have names yet.
~~ with few exceptions there are no racial deities. the gods are the gods, all races venerate them (although they may have different names for them, like the barbarians will worship the same deity through different totems)
deities of the continental archipelago
The Lords of Creation.
This is a pantheonic faith that venerates primordials from the four elemental planes. Then primordials are not named, but are worshiped together as a whole.
This is a faith that venerates beginnings, inventors, great projects, and of course the elements. Temples always have one or more pinprick openings to the elemental planes
A pantheonic cleric can chose a domain from one the four elements. For example fire gets a free cantrip, the player chooses any of the fire based cantrips from arcane or divine sources. Further they can add their wisdom bonus to their chosen element’s damage. Many take the elemental adept feat.
I will need to come up with 4 elemental domains.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Bane (I can't think of a better name at the moment)
This is a LE diety found in every kingdom. His clerics deny he is evil.
Bane is the diety of tyranny, the divine right to rule, obedience to your rulers, taxes, oppression of the masses, and the protector of kings and nobility, tax collectors.
His clerics prefer to be the state religion with all forced to worship there. While this is rarely the case, they act as it is and bully all they deem lesser than themselves.
Domains are War and Life.
