It’s a brutal clime, and one that calls for brutal living. Where the land plummets from the snowy hills into the icy fjords below, where the longboats draw up on to the beach, where the glaciers flow forward and retreat with every fall and spring-this is the land of the Vikings, the home of the Norse pantheon. Ptah, god of crafts, knowledge, and secrets
Hathor, goddess of love, music, and motherhood Re-Horakhty, god of the sun, ruler of the gods And Nephthys is a chaotic good goddess of mourning. Set is a chaotic evil god of murder, perhaps best known for killing his brother Osiris. Anubis is the lawful neutral god of the afterlife, who judges the souls of the dead. The Egyptian pantheon is unusual in having three gods responsible for death, each with different alignments. These gods are a young dynasty of an ancient divine family, heirs to the rulership of the cosmos and the maintenance of the divine principle of Ma’at-the fundamental order of truth, justice, law, and order that puts gods, mortal pharaohs, and ordinary men and women in their logical and rightful place in the universe. Greek Deities DeityĪrtemis, goddess of hunting and childbirthĪthena, goddess of wisdom and civilization Every aspect of nature echoes with their presence, and they’ve made a place for themselves inside the human heart, too. The thick boar-infested woods and the sere, olive-covered hillsides hold evidence of their passing. The gods of Olympus make themselves known with the gentle lap of waves against the shores and the crash of the thunder among the cloud-enshrouded peaks.

The Celtic gods are as often served by druids as by clerics, for they are closely aligned with the forces of nature that druids revere. When the first forester dared put a name to the face seen in the bole of a tree or the voice babbling in a brook, these gods forced themselves into being. They sprang from the brook and stream, their might heightened by the strength of the oak and the beauty of the woodlands and open moor. It’s said that something wild lurks in the heart of every soul, a space that thrills to the sound of geese calling at night, to the whispering wind through the pines, to the unexpected red of mistletoe on an oak-and it is in this space that the Celtic gods dwell. They include deities that are most appropriate for use in a game, divorced from their historical context in the real world and united into pantheons that serve the needs of the game. The Celtic, Egyptian, Greek, and Norse pantheons are fantasy interpretations of historical religions from our world’s ancient times. Appendix PH-B: Fantasy-Historical Pantheons
