Regional Notes

• The Holy Dominion of Sirastir only permits worship of five gods: Paladine, Pelor, Freya, Thoth and Reorx. Priests of Kelemvor are permitted for their particular use in funeral rites, but their membership is strictly limited.
• The Menimrest Empire has a small number of priests, but the mages commonly venerate Mystra and Thoth as holders of ancient knowledge.
• In the hierarchical society of Osium, the orcs recognize Bahamut and Tiamat as opposing forces, both respected for their lawful nature.
• Where Poseidon is more commonly revered in the island nations of Qu'Varia and Tirise, Freya is almost exclusively exalted as Avandra, Goddess of Luck.
