The Old Gods
The old gods of Eldoria, though now relegated to the annals of history, once held sway over the hearts and minds of mortals and immortals alike. Each deity represented fundamental aspects of the world and its inhabitants, shaping the course of history and influencing the destinies of all who dwelled within their domain.
Among the pantheon of old gods were mighty beings such as Azuth, the god of wizards, who bestowed knowledge and arcane power upon mortals; Bane, the god of tyranny, who sought dominion and control through strength and conquest; and Baal, the god of Murder, who rejoiced in every drop of spilled human blood.
These ancient deities, with their vast powers and inscrutable motivations, ruled over the mortal realm with a mix of benevolence and caprice, guiding the course of civilization and shaping the fates of nations. From the verdant forests of Silvanus, the god of wild nature, to the stormy seas ruled by Umberlee, the goddess of the sea, every aspect of existence was overseen by these divine beings.
Yet, despite their power and influence, the old gods were not immune to the forces of change and upheaval that swept across the world. The War of the Ancients, a cataclysmic conflict that shook the very foundations of reality, saw the downfall of the old pantheon and the rise of a new order in its wake.
Now, the old gods exist only in the fading memories and forgotten myths of mortals, their once-mighty temples lying in ruin and their divine influence waning with each passing day. Yet, their legacy endures, woven into the fabric of Eldoria's history and lingering as a reminder of the fleeting nature of divine power.
