Ten Other Gods

Wednesday, July 2, 2008

Beyond the 20 core deities, there are those who have not become so ubiquitous that their names and faiths can be found throughout Avistan or Garund. In some cases, this is simply because their worshipers do not actively seek out new members of their faith, while in others it is the deity who discourages growth. In Aroden's case, a once mighty faith has crumbled to a shadow of its former glory after the god himself perished. Beyond these ten, there exist still more deities, but those generally focus on specific races or regions of the world and have not yet expanded out of their relatively narrow confines to touch other realms and believers. The ten Other Gods detailed in the Pathfinder Campaign Setting are listed below, several of which are being introduced to the public for the first time!

Achaekek (He Who Walks in Blood): God of the Red Mantis and assassins.

Aroden (The Last Azlanti): God of human culture, innovation, and history.

Besmara (The Pirate Queen): Goddess of piracy, strife, and sea monsters.

Droskar (The Dark Smith): God of toil, slavery, and cheating.

Ghlaunder (The Gossamer King): God of parasites, infection, and stagnation.

Groetus (God of the End Times): God of empty places, ruins, and oblivion.

Kurgess (The Strong Man): God of competition, sport, and self-sacrifice.

Milani (The Everbloom): Goddess of hope, devotion, and uprisings.

Sivanah (The Seventh Veil): Goddess of illusions, reflections, and mystery.

Zyphus (The Grim Harvestman): God of accidental death, graveyards, and tragedy.
