The God of...

[darkmonk]

Anyone have a good reference for coming up with the names of deities? I've "borrowed" the odd one here and there, but while retooling Freeport for my own needs, I'm at the same time designing an entire world around the pirate city.

The major gods of Freeport I have already figured out, but right now I am needing to come up with some "landlubber" gods.

I use the gods from Book of the Righteous, plus Harrimast, Yarash, Yig, and the Unspeakable one.

One of my players wanted to play a neutral necromancer type cleric, so we created Aster, son of Maal (Judge of the dead). Aster is the protector of wanderers, pilgrims, and the undead. He believes that the undead are just as worthy of protection and guidance as the living, an opinion that puts him in opposition to the rest of the pantheon. He is neutral and his domains are Protection, Travel, and Undeath.

My Freeport is set in Mystara so I'm using these Immortals:

I also have:
God of War = Vanya
God of the Sea =Protius
God of Knowledge =Khonornus
God of Retribution =Ixion
Harrimast = Himself
Yarrash = Himself
Yig = Ka
The Unspeakable One = Thanatos

You may want to use Arcanis' deities:

God of War: Nier
God of the Sea: Yarris
God of Knowledge: Althares
God of Retribution: Sarish
Harrimast: Cadic
Yig: Yig
The Unspeakable One: Umor

My Freeport campaign was set in H.P. Lovecraft's Dreamlands (a Call of Cthulhu supplement), so I used gods from that setting, plus the gods actually given names in the Freeport adventures. The four chief gods in Freeport are Harrimast (pirates), Nasht (knowledge), Nodens (the sea), and N'tse-Kaambl (warriors).

The full list of gods (as given to the players, anyway) can be seen here:
