-In my game world I've declared that there are not many (civilized) humanoid gods and have not been for quite awhile. Monsters however seem to have plentiful amounts of gods available to them. I'm not opposed to popping open the Monster Manual and just using whatever the default is for them. This creates some issues for any PC [[cleric]] but at the same time is ripe for quests and plot hooks! //Oh poor players, it is so unfair they have to struggle to find their gods when the monsters don't.//

+In my game world I've declared that there are not many (civilized) humanoid gods and have not been for thousands of years.((Reason unknown at this time.)) Monsters however seem to have plentiful amounts of gods available to them. I'm not opposed to popping open the Monster Manual and just using whatever the default is for them. This creates some issues for any PC [[cleric]] but at the same time is ripe for quests and plot hooks! Meanwhile any gods for the playable humanoid races need official in game justification in the form of worshipers or specific circumstances that bring them about as a new god, or revive a god that's been long dormant. Between 5.5e rules and homebrew rules it basically just takes a lot of faith in something, by something, to start the evolution of a deity of some sort. Note that Gods\Entities are not just for clerics, but also for random followers, paladins, warlocks, etc.
-  * **God of Lost Socks**, a likely chaotic neutral abstract concept of a deity, which has spawned from [[Zingle]].
+====GODS/ENTITIES====
-    * Zingle added [[Socks|NPC Unicorn Socks]] to his mythos.
-  * **KRAKAREN**: When introduced to their new game setting at LV 1, the players found themselves surprised to be starting at sea on a passenger ship. A kraken, known as "**Krak(AR)en**" took the ship down. Being powerful beings, it has future potential to evolve. /* My plan is to have the kraken recur later, in any given body of water, hunting the players, but also be a potential entity that some new faith could be spawned from. */
+  * [[Bobo Maf]] - The Clown God. Patron of [[Alimir]].
-  * [[Eyrun]] seems to have a vibe that could spawn some sort of **Cloud Giant or Greek themed deity** later. So far she's got a "cloud with a silver lining and a smiley face" symbology thing going on but not much else. She's also been to [[Mustardia]] where they have a "[[Cloud Stones|Cloud Stone]]" that seems to be the closest vibing thing to her holy symbol. The giants there gifted her with a ring made from it. If anything becomes of these things is TBD.
+  * [[Chuck Norris]] - Transcended from the real world into a fantasy deity.
-  * **KUO-TOA GOD**: After the Kraken incident, the then LV 2 players were trapped on an island with Kuo-Toa and encountered a statue representing one of the monster gods, with a head of a Moray Eel & body of a Sea Sponge. The statue healed them when they left important items near it. Later they'd take a small [[Kuo-Toa Idol]] weighing 10LBS off a Kuo-Toa they'd fought. It'd turn out to randomly heal whomever was carrying it for 1d8 hit points. But after a few healings it grew physically a little and went up to 15LBS.
+  * [[Garko]] - Evil god or patron entity of the entire [[Niflome]] race.
-    * //An incident at the [[Mirror House]] involving [[Sunny]] & an intruder resulted in the idol going full statue mode and budding off a new mini.// This expands the god a little bit more and seems to be an issue left unresolved.
+  * **God of Lost Socks**, a likely chaotic neutral abstract concept of a deity, which has spawned from [[Zingle]], High Cleric of the **Order Of The Lost Socks**. He's started with one temple in [[Goldvale]].
-  * In the [[Dense Forest]] in the outskirts of the [[Goldvale]] area players encountered an area full of tall bamboo. The bamboo moved out of their way as they entered the area, leading them to a building which one might describe as being "no larger than my dining room" with a wooden door. The entire thing is plain looking on the outside. Inside more of the same but there is an altar, made of living wood but with a symbol on it of a vertical line with a few little evenly tilted upward branch lines on it (a cane of bamboo with leaf branchings maybe). This ended up being a temple to a **Neutral Good deity of Knowledge**. While PCs were here they got all sorts of insight into the local area and other pressing issues. Since the seemingly interactive bamboo around the place was interactive and this building and altar were in great condition, one can assume there is a decent sized base of followers, probably forest dwellers of some sort, to this deity.
+  * **[[Hayte]]** -- This is an evil deity, slightly lost to history, but starting to make a comeback due to [[The Cult Of Alden]].
-  * **The Great Pumpkin** - Some sort of nature entity that revolves around finding the most sincere pumpkin, with some elf followers existing over in the [[Dense Forest]].
+  * **[[Heaglin]]** -- This is a good deity. slightly lost to history. Likely once more far ranging, but now just a small token presence in [[Goldvale]] and a few other places.
-  * [[Shrine Of Heaglin|Heaglin]] -- a lost god.
+  * **KRAKAREN**: When introduced to their new game setting at LV 1, the players found themselves surprised to be starting at sea on a passenger ship. A kraken, known as "**Krak(AR)en**" took the ship down. Being powerful beings, this kraken has future potential to evolve. Krakaren may reappear anywhere with water, from ocean to sewers, at any point in the campaign. This kraken is also known to [[Pirate Captain Salty Merlot]] which may have relevance at any future point when he is involved.
-  * **Hayte** (Can also be spelled as **Hayt**((Because the DM made a huge typo on the Goldvale map and now I'm just making two spellings cannon.)), pronounced "Hate".) This is an evil Deity of some sort which is slightly lost to history. Elements of Hayte have appeared in the game, although no real details have emerged on specific godly attributes beyond just being "evil".
+  * **KUO-TOA GOD**: After the Kraken incident, the then LV 2 players were trapped on an island with Kuo-Toa and encountered a statue representing one of the monster gods, with a **head of a Moray Eel & body of a Sea Sponge**.((EelHead SquarePants?)) The statue healed them when they left important items near it. Later they'd take a small [[Kuo-Toa Idol]] weighing 10LBS off a Kuo-Toa they'd fought. It'd turn out to randomly heal whomever was carrying it for 1d8 hit points. But after a few healings it grew physically a little and went up to 15LBS. //An incident at the [[Mirror House]] involving [[Sunny]] & an intruder resulted in the idol going full statue mode and budding off a new mini.// This expands the god a little bit more in a different part of the world than it started at and seems to be an issue left unresolved. More than one idol have been discovered on different continents.
-    * [[Shrine of Hayte]] -- A worn and fairly generic nearly forgotten old shrine in the [[Dense Forest]] region near Goldvale.
+  * [[Sucker Lake|Maxeaul]] -- A god of the [[dwarf|Toc Clan]] dwarves.
-    * [[Eye Of Hayte]] -- A powerful artifact from the [[Toc Clan Coal Mine Event|past]] that seems to have reappeared in present times.
-    * The Church Of Hayte -- Rumored to be North of Goldvale, but not visited by the party. Rumors suggest the infamous [[Alden]] somehow ties into this.
   * [[Patrick|Saint Patrick]] -- Worshiped by the [[Animalfolk]] of the [[Hylund:Hylund Forest|Hylund Forest Community]], even though he very much does not wish to be.
-  * [[The Moose]] -- Deity Of Berserkers. Alignment unknown. Hostile.
+  * **[[Silfralta]]** - [[Eyrun]]'s - **Cloud Giant themed deity**. Holy symbol is a "cloud with a silver lining and a smiley face" for symbology.
-  * Also... /* [[Baby Monsters]] are being groomed to be potential gods depending on how players treat them. They've rescued a Baby Unicorn & Baby Owlbear from a [[Ferrin's House]] already and now hints come in and weird things happen to see if anything can come of them.*/
+  * [[The Eldritch Alpaca]] --  An entity spread amongst the common folk, largely via farmers.
+  * **The Great Pumpkin** - Some sort of nature entity that revolves around finding the most sincere pumpkin, with some elf followers existing over in the [[Dense Forest]].
+  * [[The Moose]] -- Deity Of Berserkers. Alignment unknown. Hostile. The Moose can be anywhere.
+  * [[Torralta]] -- An evil deity that is basically the antithesis of [[Silfralta]].
+  * [[Ursavus]] - The celestial Black Bear.
+  * [[Wyrd Uncle Lugo]] - Technically counts as a patron to at least one warlock.
+====Other/Unnamed====
+  * In the [[Dense Forest]] in the outskirts of the [[Goldvale]] area players encountered an area full of tall bamboo. The bamboo moved out of their way as they entered the area, leading them to a building which one might describe as being "no larger than my dining room" with a wooden door.

+    * //During a game session((Oct 6, 2026.)) the DM let the players have the loot listed on an old generic character sheet for a cleric. The sheet listed "holy symbol: amulet". The DM with no better idea in mind declared it was a wooden amulet with a design of a "a cane of bamboo with leaflets growing out of it" in order to link the amulet to this unnamed god in case anyone ever follows up in some way.//
+  * The "**CatMonkey Idol**" is associated with [[Romper]], but undeveloped.
+  * **The Entity**(The baby thing that gets into peoples' heads.) from [[Ferrin's House]] early in the campaign which ultimately was abducted and taken to modern Crompse has potential. But it has not been followed up on.
