Need deity for druid


Advice


I'm redoing my elf druid from scratch and I need to pick a deity. My druid is Chaotic Good, but I can change it to Neutral if I need to. I also need to pick a deity for my halfling hunter. Ketephys is a hunting god, but he's an elven gold so I'm not sure if it'll work for my hunter. Does it matter that much?

Ask your GM if he will allow none neutral Druids.

Alignment: Any neutral

Check out the Green Faith or Gozreh for a druid deity...or just don't worship one.

A deity for hunter is pretty much whatever you want..or just don't worship them. Is there a reason these characters need a deity?


I always thought it would be cool to have a Druid worship Kali.


Oop, forgot that druids have to be Neutral. :P

There really isn't for mechanical play, but I like to flesh out my characters for roleplay.


Any detail in mind about the characters besides alignment, race, and class? That's a basis to start thinking from, yeah, but even a divine caster can choose their faith for a reason fairly distinct from more obvious inclinations.
Could be a meaningful experience such as having been aided in an emergency by followers of that deity, or something they interpreted as an omen. Could simply be upbringing/cultural influence. Could be they chose based on some other aspect of their life, for example a hobby of painting leading to worshipping Shelyn.
Thinking about WHY a character might revere a certain deity in the first place is how I often end up deciding on which one.


Kofusachi,Shelyn, Sarenrae, Qi Zhong, Yamatsumi, Nalinivati, Gozreh, Calistria, Hei Feng, Sun Wukong are some examples but it all depends on what type of character you want to make


I will keep those in mind.

Shub Niggurath.


While they are divine spellcasters Druids do not need to worship a deity. But as others stated, just about any nature god (or the green faith) will work if you wish to select one.

Hunters are basically the same, they don't need a deity but they may select one.


I like Gorum, personally. But then, my favorite Druid is a chaotic neutral Nature Fang Druid of Gorum. So many fun things you can do with one of those... except wild shape, haha.


Well, while remaking my druid, I have decided not to go with an elf, but with an Aasimar instead. Perhaps my druid could be descended from a nature god.
