Deities and Religions

in Forgotten Realms

While Deities and the Religions that follow them may be most important to their clerics and clergy, the common folk revere them and pray for prosperity. The reach of Deities, even though separated from Toril by many planes and the Astral Sea, is still long. Many a crusade, religious ploy or grand plan is in service to these and many a hero and villain follow their patron found amongst Toril's Pantheon of gods.
