The New Gods

After the death of the Babylonian and Sumerian gods, a group of “New Gods” stepped in to take over the abandoned clergy.

The New Gods (“Human”)
Deity Alignment Areas of Influence
Asmodeus Evil Power, domination, tyranny
Avandra Good Change, luck, trade, travel
Bane Evil War, conquest
Erathis Unaligned Civilization, invention, laws
Ioun Unaligned Knowledge, prophecy, skill

Sehanine Unaligned Trickery, moon, love, autumn
Tharizdun Chaotic Evil Annihilation, madness
Torog Evil Underdark, imprisonment
Vecna Evil Undeath, secrets
Zehir Evil Darkness, poison, serpents

In addition to the above “Human” gods, the following gods are sometimes worshiped by humans, even though their primary sphere of influence is one of the non-human races:

The New Gods (Non-Human)
Deity Alignment Areas of Influence
Bahamut Lawful Good Justice, honor, nobility, protection
Corellon Larethian Unaligned Arcane magic, spring, beauty, the arts

Gruumsh Chaotic Evil Turmoil, destruction
Lolth Chaotic Evil Spiders, shadows, lies
Moradin Lawful Good Creation, artisans, family
