Allitur is an old Flan god, representing the need to maintain traditions, laws, and ethical behavior between tribes and

generations of people. Often considered the younger brother of Rao, he maintains close ties with his entire pantheon

and often acts as a liaison to other pantheons because of his gift of divine diplomacy; it is this interaction that has

gained him some awareness beyond the Flan people in this century. He rides an untiring horse named Keph;

his symbol is a pair of clasped hands.

Allitur is good-hearted and morally sound. He often takes the form of a wizened old man and appears even older

than his parents, Pelor and Beory. In this form, he has a typical Flan complexion with a wreath of silver hair upon

his head and a nose that curves like the beak of a cock. Indeed, it is said that he occasionally takes the form of a

cock when among the peoples of Oerth. Those hearing a cock crow must search their consciences, for surely Allitur

is watching them. If they continue their wrongful acts, the cock will crow again. Finally, any who have heard thecock crow thrice while still engaged in some wrongful act will gain the eternal enmity of Allitur.

Allitur insists on the performance of traditional rituals, and most Flan customs about home and family can be traced to

his teachings. He also introduced the concept of laws and punishment to the Flannae, and his name is invoked

at trials, diplomatic meetings, and other official s ituations where fairness is expected from a bargaining partner.

Alliturs clerics arbitrate disputes, carry messages between tribes and nations, act as legal advisers or judges

when needed, scribe laws and other documents for the common folk, and travel to teach the proper traditions to

children and heathens. They also have a martial aspect because of their role as enactors of punishmentsfor criminals, violators of taboos, and oath breakers. Alliturs worshipers are expected to comply with clerics when

they serve this function. These roles carry them far into hostile lands where their beliefs come into conflict with

heretics and the uncivilized.

Beory commonly takes the form of a rotund, middle-aged, motherly woman with brown hair and weathered skin,

and she is sometimes depicted as such. More often, though, the deity of nature, rain, and the very Oerth itself is seen

as a process rather than a being by learned folk, and she is considered very distant by common folk. The worldly

doings of humans, demi-humans, and their kindred are of almost no concern to Beory. Only events that affect the

integrity of Oerth as an entity concern her. Beory has very few clergy members; those who exist are druids.

In the Amedio Jungle, the ancient Olman worshiped Beory in a serpent-skirted aspect; there she was known

as Coatlicue (koh-ah-TLEE-koo).

Druids of Beory are contemplative communicants with nature, using their skills to avoid any change of the

natural balance. They are conservative, cautious folk, loath to take incisive actions. Many are solitary, and the order

has little organization. Druids treat each other as superiors based on wisdom and years, not because of formal titles

or higher experience levels. The clergy of Beory are well disposed to those of Ehlonna and Ulaa.

The daughter of Beory by Pelor, Berei is the life-giving soil and the strong stone that is the foundation of a

safe home. She is shown as a strong-backed woman of brown skin and kind demeanor, and her holy symbol is

a sheaf of wheat stalks. As the goddess of home and family, she blesses weddings, gives fertility, protects the

household and its members, guides the hands of those who till the soil, and teaches ways to care for the land.

Clerics of Berei tend to stay close to their families, serve as spiritual guides and protectors, advise farmers on crops,

and restore barren land. Some of her clerics choose to wander, planting seeds, looking for exotic crops, and carrying

news between communities. They often adopt their traveling companions as family members and consider these

bonds as sacred as those of blood relatives.

Iuz the Old is the patron of wickedness. He rules a portion of the Flanaess named after him, holding court in his

capital city of Dorakaa where he plots the conquest and dominion of the entire Oerth. Iuz wickedness and treachery

are infamous throughout the Flanaess, and few creatures living outside his domain even speak his name, let alone

adore him. There is great personal enmity between Iuz and St. Cuthbert. Ceremonies venerating Iuz include

foul-smelling incense or burning dung and the banging of great drums, gongs, or bells. Blood sacrifices are often part

of rituals. Altars are usually of bone and include many skulls. Services to Iuz are held in ancient, filthy,

and dark places.

Whether Iuz is a human who has become demonic through the centuries, or whether he is a cambion

(Orcus offspring, some suggest), no mortal knows. He has been known to appear as an ogre-sized fat man withdemonic features, reddish skin, pointed ears, and long steely fingers, or as a wrinkled old man scarcely five feet tall.

Either or both might be Iuz true form.

Clerics of this cult raid graveyards to create undead just for the sake of doing so. They sometimes sell their creations

to magic-users or other clerics but often let them run wild in the streets of cities. Powerful clerics attempt to create

new kinds of undead, and most seek lichdom rather than face true death. Kyuss clerics adventure to acquire more

undead followers and money to create more undead, to discover new or forgotten types of undead, and to discover

forgotten holy sites of their patron (such as certain ruins in the Amedio Jungle, where Kyuss once traveled).

As a hero-deity, Kyuss grants spells of up to level 4 only. His clerics have no spell ability at 1st level and thereafter

cast one less spell of each level group than other clerics.

Nerull, the patron of covert activity, is known as The Reaper, Foe of All Good, Hater of Life, Bringer of Darkness,

King of All Gloom, and Reaper of Flesh. He is the deity of all who embrace evil for enjoyment or gain. Many evil

humans and some humanoids pay homage to Nerull. In wicked lands, such as the Great Kingdom, temples of Nerull

operate openly. In other places, the rites of Nerull are conducted in subterranean shrines and sacred vaults.

The worship of Nerull is done in full darkness, with a litany glorifying death and suffering. Blood sacrifices

are common. Altars are made of rust-colored stone; service pieces are copper and malachite.

Nerull appears as a skeletal figure with dull, rust-red skin. His skull-like head has locks of dark green, ropey hair.

His eyes are lambent green, suggesting verdigris; his talons and teeth are the same hue. He wears a black cowl and

carries the Life Cutter, a red-veined sablewood staff. He appears on the Prime Material Plane only during darkness.

Ebony TendrilsEbony TendrilsEbony TendrilsEbony Tendrils (Conjuration/Summoning)

Level: 5 Components: V, S, MRange: 1 Casting Time: 5 segmentsDuration: 5 rounds Saving Throw: Neg.

Area of Effect: Special

This spell summons a lump of blackness five feet indiameter with four 10-foot arms radiating from it,90 degrees apart. Touching the central lump causes deathunless a save vs. death magic is made. The arms attack

with the same chance to hit as the cleric casting the spell,inflicting d10+2 hit points of corrosive andconstriction damage. Creatures struck have one chance tobreak free, which is the same as the chance to opena door. (If the chance to open doors is unknown,assume that creatures smaller than man-sized escape on aroll of 1 on 1d6, man-sized creatures on a roll of 1 or 2on 1d6, and creatures larger than man-sized on a 1, 2,

or 3 on 1d6.)The round after scoring a hit, an arm retracts into the

central lump, where the victim in its grasp must save vs.death magic. Thereafter, the victim is held fast andcontinues to suffer corrosion and constriction damage,but continued contact with the lump does not causeadditional saves vs. death magic. Broken arms retract intothe central lump without making further attacks.

Arms holding dead creatures continue to hold them untilthe spell duration expires. The material componentsfor this spell are Nerulls unholy symbol (the skulland scythe) and a small, rusty, iron ball.

Obad-hai, The Shalm, is an archaic deity of nature and wildland, one of the most ancient known, having been

worshiped by the Flan prior to the arrival of invading Aerdi. Obad-hai can appear in human form as a lean,

weathered man of indeterminate but considerable age. He usually is clad in brown or russet, carrying a

hornwood staff, looking as if he were a pilgrim, hermit, or merely a rustic. At other times, he will appear as a

dwur, noniz, or hobniz. The Shalm also is able to take the form and characteristics of woodland creatures. He can

assume any form instantaneously. It is not uncommon for the Shalm to roam about in the guise of any of the

following creatures:

centaur badger giant otter

leprechaun brown bear giant owlpixie boar giant pike

satyr giant eagle giant porcupine

sprite giant goat giant stag

treant giant lynx wolf

Obad-hais weapon is the Shalmstaff. When it is discarded by Obad-hai, it instantaneously flies to the nearest

hornwood tree, where it remains until summoned by Obad-hai. This staff also allows its bearer to walk tirelessly

without food or water for as long as desired. Animals will never harm the bearer. Vegetation will part to allow

easy passage.

The Shalm loves nature and wilderness. He is a patron of druids and a friend to those who dwell in harmony with

their natural surroundings. Because of Obad-hais particular neutrality, a rivalry and antipathy exists between this

deity and Ehlonna of the Forests. Thus, the majority of the Shalms followers are male; those of Ehlonna, female.

Churches or chapels of Obad-hai are always in rustic settings and made of rough timber. Services are brief and notparticularly ritualized. Living flowers, earth, water, and fire are typical service adornments.

HDHDHDHD Godsday, festivals; PoWPoWPoWPoW Temple; CLCLCLCL Clerics (Paladins); PNPNPNPN Elysium.

Pelor is the great sun god, regarded as the creator of much of what is good a god of strength, light,

and healing. Pelor flies on a great ki-rin, summons flights of eagles, and casts down dark evils with bolts of

brilliant sunlight. Pelors aspect is that of a peaceful, gentle god concerned for the suffering. As strengthener

and healer, Pelor brings vitality to those beset by Evil.

Temples to Pelor are tall structures that feature large windows, often with decorative stained glass. They tend to be

tall, airy, and blindingly white. They are usually placed so the sun shines into most of their rooms throughout the day.

They often feature open, sunny courtyards as well. They are kept scrupulously clean, and many of them have wings

that house hospitals. They are a good source of healing magic and often easy to find because Pelor-worship is so

prevalent in civilized lands.

Services to Pelor involve hymn singing, communal prayer, and the dispensing of alms to the needy (and the collection

of same from the well-to-do). As befits a sun god, Pelors major festivals take place on solstices and equinoxes,

and many weddings and rites of passage take place on the cusp of a new season. The Blessing of the

Sun-Kissed Field is a common rite requested by farmers.

Pelors PaladinsPelors PaladinsPelors PaladinsPelors Paladins

Pelorian paladins use the title Crusaders. The paladins consider most laws helpful, but realize that laws alone do

not remove suffering from the world and that laws sometimes can be abused to become a symptom of the problem

rather than a cure. As a whole, they favor no weapons over others, but individuals often focus on mastering the

sword or mace over the course of their lives. The greatest among them wield legendary sunblades or

maces of disruption. Paladins of Pelor are sworn foes of the undead and turn undead as clerics of equal level.

Most paladins of Pelor adorn themselves in plate or chain armor and carry weapons appropriate to their needs.

Pelorians favor light-colored tunics (especially sky blues, pale greens, or grays) when dressed informally. All paladins

of Pelor wear an inky black cloak, emblazoned with the Sun Gods gold orb holy symbol, on formal occasions or

when engaging in a planned battle with the forces of darkness (such as a war). When so garbed, the Pelorians blend

into the darkness, looking like floating suns charging into battle.

Pelors clerics work for the poor and sick, bringing healing, food, and aid to them. They are quiet, kindly people forthe most part, but with some steel as protection. They are primarily nurturers and protectors, but when the time

comes to bear arms, they are not afraid to do so. Because Pelors clerics spend a lot of time tending to the sick,

blessing crops, and providing for the basic spiritual needs of their communities, they attract a number of earnest,

forthright youths who want to make the world a better place. While not unduly harsh, training among the followers

of Pelor is rigorous enough to send many well-meaning youths back to their farms and cobbler shops.

Clerics of Pelor are free to explore far lands in an effort to drive off harmful beings and spread their gods gift to all

who need it. More so than adherents of any other faith, the followers of Pelor often find themselves striving against

the undead. They also undertake healing whenever they can whether that healing is physical or spiritual.

Quests that break up a cabal of necromancers, broker a peace accord between rival warlords, or destroy an ancient

lich-queen are good examples of missions for the glory of Pelor.

Clerical level titles are standard through the 8th level. Clerics of level 9+ use the title High Patriarch/Matriarch,

rather than High Priest(ess), as found in some other religions. Pelors clerics have warm relations with those of Rao.

Clerics of Pelor and Mayaheine are on excellent terms; the latter defer to the former, just as Mayaheine serves Pelor.

Rao is the serene, detached god of reason, intellect, and peace. The god does not act on the Prime Material Plane

directly, but he is known to have created several powerful magical artifacts which are highly potent against Evil

(notably the Crook of Rao), possibly with the aid of Boccob. Rao is always depicted as a dark-skinned, white-haired

old man with bright, dark brown eyes and long, slender hands; he is smiling and serene. Raos faith is one that does

not appeal much to common folk; he has always had more followers among rulers, diplomats, sages, scholars,

and philosophers. Clearly, his church is not exactly overpopulated. Those who seek to find powerful magic to aid

the cause of Good make him valuable offerings and meditate on Raos sacred texts. Services to Rao involve

discussions of theology and group meditations.

Raos PaladinsRaos PaladinsRaos PaladinsRaos Paladins

Although few in number, Raoan paladins are exceedingly formidable individuals chosen for both their martial abilities

and their keen wisdom and intellect. Paladins of Rao (known as Envoys or Heralds) study everything they can about

their opponents, learning their every vice and weakness. They are excellent negotiators and interlocutors, but if

pressed they make extremely nuanced tacticians and field masters. Holy warriors of all faiths have the highest,

if sometimes grudging, respect for paladins of Rao.

Paladins of Rao typically go lightly armored and often minimally armed, unless expecting the worst.

Serene, patrician figures, most possess spotless manners and erudition. They favor chain mail and light,

one-handed weapons such as maces and short swords (which may be selected as a paladins weapon of choice at

3rd level). They rarely wear helms and almost never carry shields. Paladins of Rao typically wear gray or blue-gray

tunics trimmed in white or gold and sometimes don a cowl. Raos symbol is embroidered over their chests.

Raos paladins have friendly relations with followers of St. Cuthbert.

Raos clerics are mediators and negotiators wise and quiet people. Most are male. The priesthood is

very studious, but one motto is, There is time to think, and more rarely to act; but in that time, action is wisdom.

(These clerics are not wholly pacifistic!) Raos clerics have warm relations with those of Zilchus. There is some

chiding between them, for Raos clerics say that Zilchus clerics are too materialistic; Zilchus clerics say that Raos

followers are too idealistic. Nevertheless, there is a genuine liking by each for the other.

Clerical level titles are standard, but there do exist some regional variations. For instance, Raoans in Veluna use no

title higher than Canon(ess), while those in Greyhawk and its environs prefer Patriarch/Matriarch. It is quite possible

for a 9th-level High Priest in one land to be outranked by a 16th-level Canon in another!

Upon attaining the 7th level, a cleric of Rao may cast one emotionspell per day (as the 4th-level illusionist spell).

The emotionprojected is calm, which causes all creatures in the area of effect to feel peaceful and serene and show

no aggression or fear unless attacked first. Creatures of at least lowintelligence are entitled to a saving throw to avoid

the spells effect. Those who fail (and those ofanimalor semi-intelligence) suffer a 2 saving throw penalty against

any subsequent charmspell cast upon them while the cleric continues to maintain the emotion.

Red Fox is the most clever and cunning of animal spirits. He is credited with teaching men crafts such as making

weapons and pottery as well as the summoning and controlling of fire. Despite the generous side of his

personality, however, Red Fox is a cowardly thief who often resorts to trickery. Red Fox can polymorphhimself into

any natural animal. He can make himself or any object invisible for an indefinite period and can animate any object

for up to one week. His true form is that of a giant, red-furred fox.

Red Fox is greedy and conniving. During his frequent attempts to swindle a fellow god, he often assigns difficult jobs

to his worshipers, promising great rewards if they succeed. Most often, he forgets to keep such promises. He is

not above bullying a mortal to get what he wants. Typically, he will only punish his clerics for failing at an assigned

task or daring to cheat him. Such punishments take the form of a cruel trick, such as stealing a cherished possession

and giving it to the victims enemy.

Relatively new to the ranks of deities, Vecna is seldom recognized as a demigod by any but his worshipers.

Known as the Whispered One, Maimed Lord, Master of Secrets, Vecna has a small but increasingly active cult in

the lands of the Flanaess. Vecna is a patron god of black secrets, especially those magical in nature.

Still, for the majority of mortals, Vecna is identified as an arch-lich, although he transcended this paltry honorific

ages ago. Although other gods might find the lack of recognition displeasing, the condition has suited Vecnas needs

and matches his secretive nature. He enjoys the position of outsider among the great deities of the Outer Planes.

Their attentions are diverted elsewhere and he is allowed to continue his plans and schemes undisturbed.

Formerly a lich, Vecna has retained the horrid appearance of these monsters. His body is mummified with patches of

dry rot showing through the tatters he wears for clothing. His left arm ends in a crumbling stump. Vecnas face iscovered by a silken scarf, veiling his features underneath.

Vecna prefers to act indirectly in the affairs of men, guiding and steering his followers to goals only he understands.

Nursed on treachery and deceit, the Whispered One has no compassion for mortals, even his own worshipers.

Those who follow him must commit themselves to being utter pawns in his schemes. Followers who serve him well

are rewarded with knowledge, usually damning secrets others would prefer stayed hidden. Those who anger Vecna

often find themselves betrayed and blackmailed, their darkest sins suddenly known to those who can hurt them most.

Clerics of Vecna are rare, primarily due to the stringent requirements needed to qualify they must be dual- or

multi-classed magic-users. However, the clerics have a large degree of freedom in their activities. Their most

important duty is to recover the Eye and the Hand of Vecna, so these can be returned to their god. Beyond this,

the clerics are expected to collect and study strange magical items, destroy or weaken any threat to Vecna,

and restore his empire for the day when he returns. Twice yearly, they must sacrifice large quantities of magical

items to Vecna. Clerics of Vecna may substitute the druidic spells heat metaland/or repel insectsfor clerical spells of

the same level.

Her Most Enigmatic Excellency, Sublime Mistress of the Whispered One, the Heart of Vecna is the high priestess of

the cult. Through her, the commands of the Whispered One are transmitted to the faithful. The Heart always wears

a blood-red robe with no decorations on it. After the Heart come the Thoughts of Vecna. The Thoughts of Vecna

lead the Organs, the name for congregations of worshipers. Since the cult is small, there is seldom more than one

Organ to a city or area. The Thoughts wear robes emblazoned with a pattern of lightning bolts, signifying the

devastating power of thought.

The lesser clerics of a given Organ are known as the Memories of Vecna, for it is through them that the day-to-day

existence of the cult is assured. Thus, they guarantee that his name will never be forgotten. The number of

Memories under a Thought depends on the size and importance of that Organ. However, there is only one lesser

cleric of 5th level or greater in a given Organ. The Memories wear robes decorated with abstract designs.

Zodal is a servant of Rao. He espouses kindness and compassion in situations of anger and vengeance, and he

defuses negative emotions of those around him. Depicted as a man in simple gray robes with large, careworn hands,

he considers even the most hateful and destructive gods his friends, for he believes that with enough effort on his part

they might change their ways. He continues his ministrations despite the evil and pain in the world, believing that his

efforts will eventually make change happen. His symbol is a mans hand partially wrapped in a gray cloth. Temples

to Zodal are hospitals for the sick and homes for the poor. They are always humble structures.

Zodals clerics spend their lives in simple circumstances, using their knowledge and abilities by helping people in need

and alleviating pain. They are drawn to warfare, to minister to the wounded and convince evildoers to change

their ways. They adventure to bring attention to their cause, to discover artifacts of Good (like the Crook of Rao),

and to destroy items that promote woe. Good deeds and silent prayer are the only worship these clerics perform.

They will never retain wealth, keeping only sufficient treasures to support themselves in a modest manner,

pay henchmen and hirelings, and construct or maintain a temple/hospital.

Clerics of Zodal may not start a fight and may only use weapons (or martial arts) defensively. If any such cleric ever

strikes the first blow, he or she is immediately stripped of all clerical abilities and must seek atonement. Clerics of

Zodal are taught to incapacitate their opponents with a minimal amount of pain. Zodal does not allow the taking

of any life unless every other option has been exhausted, or if the clerics life or the lives of innocents are in

immediate danger. If an enemy asks for mercy, it must be given.

At the same time, these clerics have worked out ways to deal with anyone abusing their kindness. These involve

anything from imprisonment (with hours of daily lectures on kindness and mercy) to the use of questspells. The

questspells are never meant to put someone in harms way. Examples ofquestsmay be to legally raise a certain

amount of money for the poor, to bring food for the hungry, or in rare cases with hardheaded or cruel people to

treat everyone encountered with respect and kindness.
