GHAUNADAUR

Fiendish Deity

Forgotten Realms
Ghaunadaur (pronounced: GON-ah-dowr) was a greater deity and the god of abominations. Originally, Ghaunadaur was a member of the drow pantheon but he left the pantheon to break off on his own. His portfolio included slimy creatures, outcasts, and rebels.   Description: In avatar form, Ghaunadaur appeared as a reddish-purple giant slug, but at will it can alter its form into an amorphous free-flowing shape like a jelly, rear up into a giant roper with up to 10 long purple tentacles, or appear as a sticky green substance that emerges from the ground.   Following: The church of Ghaunadaur consisted of cults scattered throughout the @UNDERDARK, each dominated by a single individual. There were only a few drow cities that served as exceptions, with a more organized clergy. Clerics of Ghaunadaur were required to serve the 'Elder Eye' completely and do whatever pleased it most. The main duty of Ghaundaur's clerics was to ensure, in any way necessary, that Ghaunadaur's altars were supplied with a steady supply of sacrifices. Clerics successful in these sacrifices were rewarded with magic power and items. Ghaunadaur enjoyed most of all those creatures that willingly offered themselves to it, whether or not they had been charmed or coerced by its clerics. Those clerics that succeeded in bringing willing sacrifices to Ghaunadaur's altars were its most favored and highest ranked servants.
