List of deities of Dungeons & Dragons
Encyclopedia
This is a list of deities of Dungeons & Dragons, including all of the 3.5 edition gods and powers of the "Core Setting" for the Dungeons & Dragons
(D&D) roleplaying game. Religion is a fundamental element of the D&D game, because it is required to support both the cleric class
and the behavioural aspects of the ethical alignment system
. The pantheons employed in D&D provide a useful framework for creating fantasy characters, as well as governments and even worlds. Because the Core Setting is based on the World of Greyhawk, the Greyhawk gods list contains most of the deities listed here, and many more.

of from Michael Moorcock
's Elric novels. This work was superseded by the Deities & Demigods
source book, which was first published in 1980. The first printing included the Cthulhu Mythos
, but both this and the Melnibonéan mythos were removed by the third printing because of potential copyright issues. In 1985, the book was renamed Legends & Lore due to concerns about bad publicity. The Babylonian, Finnish, nonhuman, and Sumerian content were removed to allow room for expansion of the remaining mythoi.
In 1992, Monster Mythology
was published as a sourcebook for the second edition of Dungeons & Dragons. This work re-introduced detailed information on the deities of several non-human pantheons. The Faerûnian pantheon for the Forgotten Realms
campaign setting was more fully detailed in 1996–8 with the publication of Faiths & Avatars
, Powers & Pantheons and Demihuman Deities
.
Note that there is some overlap between the categories. Most of the head deities of the demihuman pantheons, such as Corellon Larethian
and Moradin
, for example, are both obviously demihuman powers but are also mentioned in the Player's Handbook and as such core powers as well. Hence they appear on both lists.
Before third edition, there was no Core Setting, so the distinctions above are not as clear-cut. For the most part, materials which did not specify a setting were assumed to be at least compatible with the World of Greyhawk if not outright parts of the canon. As such, those prior materials are covered in the setting-specific lists of deities.
The book Monster Mythology
, however, was considered to be canon for core materials for the gods of non-human races in second edition.
The designation of "greater" vs. "intermediate" comes from Legends & Lore (1990). It is not used in any edition of
the Player's Handbook, but it is used in Deities and Demigods (2002) and various v3.5 Edition
materials.

Core deities
There are over 100 deities in the Greyhawk setting, and when creating Dungeons and Dragons 3rd Edition Wizards of the Coast selected a subset to become iconic deities. They selected and altered deities to correspond to "iconic" aspects of core D&D. Most core deities are human deities; except for the chief gods of the demihuman races. Certain aspects of the deities were altered to make them more generic - for example: the "Core" Heironeous favors the longsword (in order to make the favored weapon of the "God of Chivalry" more traditionally knight-like), as contrasted with the original "Greyhawk" Heironeous, who favors the battleaxe.The designation of "greater" vs. "intermediate" comes from Legends & Lore (1990). It is not used in any edition of

, she was abandoned and then mortally wounded by a paladin’s holy blade. Expecting only death, she was surprised when the high priest healed her, showing her compassion and forgiveness. Intrigued, she decided to honor a promise to the high priest and aid him in his holy quest until a time that she could save his life in turn. Nusemnee thus became a symbol of redemption. When she finally died at the end of the high priest’s quest, she rose again, this time as a minor goddess. In this form, she opposed her father by offering redemption to all who would turn away from evil. She was later killed by a poison that could kill anything—even a deity—that was distilled from Zehir’s blood.
