Unfortunately we were not given a Divine Rank for every single god, not even all human gods (gods revered by humans); though most of the popular ones did. This is why you won't see all gods from the Faerunian Pantheon on these 2 videos, we will however talk about the gods left out on Part 2 of this video and when we cover all gods in their own separate videos...we will make sure to have those as well. Also keep in mind that these rankings are for 3rd edition, and a lot has happened in the story within 3rd and 5th edition (what i believe is around 150 or so years in the story). Some gods have gone up or down in power, some dead gods have resurrected, etc. When we cover the gods in detail we will talk about those things. We are not planning on covering demigods, except for some extreme scenarios (by extreme i mean the extremely cool ones :D like Jergal and maybe the Red Knight) Also please consider helping us out with the Raid Shadow Legends Campaign! It really helps the channel out. Thanks to these sponsors we are getting, we are planning on upping a lot of the quality on these videos. Very soon enough i am hoping of having professionally made art for all the thumbnails on the channel. I have already started paying some of the art contributors for the channel (who previously just helped out to see their art showcased on the videos) and more. Thank you all for being here and being awesome.

The problem with having god-power based on worshipers is that realistically, gods of harvest, fertility and fortune and health would always be the most powerful. The most numerous of humans (or any species really) will always be peasants, and this is what they care about. A war-god may indeed be high in power, but their power would wane during peace time. A goddess of harvest and fertility (think Freja) would always be the undisputed, defacto lead deity in any settings. But in DND we regularly see the powerful gods to be deities that control time, space etc. Even in reality, where we find pantheons where the lead deity controls some lofty concept (like Norse with Odinn, Greek with Zeus etc) They are venerated for sure, but when it came down to it. the peasants actually PRAYED to, and actually worshipped the harvest ones. The common man doesn't even know what space IS. Time for him is the day to day struggle and making ends meet so he can feed his family.

Reminds me of how the most prayed to Hellenistic deity was Hestia, Goddess of the Hearth, because that gave her a portfolio over things like house fires and your home's heating. But because she doesn't cover some lofty concept or have a melodramatic story, she's completely ignored by modern people. Since most people don't worship any of the Hellenistic deities, they just focus on the ones that draw their attention. Meanwhile, the people who actually prayed to them tended to pray based on things that were important to them. Like their house not catching fire.

Two things count towards a gods power... The number of followers, and their devotion/fervour/zealotry. If the relationship between been fervour and the amount it fuels a god (god-fuel) was non-linear then it could easily overcome sheer numbers. (Now watch as I misuse the words exponential and logarithmic... But you'll get what I mean...) If there are 10 stages of worship (1 being a peasant praying for a good harvest and 10 being a 20th level cleric and literal avatar of the god) then it depends on how much god fuel the deity gets from each level. If it's 1-1 linear then you get Fervour = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 God fuel = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 And a 20th level cleric is worth as much as 10 farmers If the god fuel grows exponentially compared to the fervour then it's... Fervour = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 God Fuel = 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256, 512 And a 20th level cleric is worth as much as 512 farmers If it's logarithmic then you have Fervour = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 God fuel = 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000, 100,000,000, 1,000,000,0000 And now your cleric is pumping out a billion dei-watts of Jesus juice. A super devout cleric being worth a billion peasants seems a bit ridiculous, but even if it was 500 peasants then agriculture gods would still have the numbers... But you see what I'm getting at, somewhere in the middle lies your answer, allowing zealous religious orders like Paladins to provide more power to their deities than the common masses.

In Toril specifically, yes. In the greater D&D mythos though, absolutely not. For instance, greyhawk dragons do not have the religious civil war that Faerun's dragons did, and so revere deities freely, including bahamut and Tiamat. Bahamut (as Paladine) and Tiamat (as Takhisis) are also the two primary gods of Krynn. A case could be made that the Sovereign Host and Dark Six of Eberron also tie to Tiamat and Bahamut; especially as worshipepd by the dragons of Argonessen. Also fun fact; while metallic dragons have little issue revering Bahamut, Chromatic dragons are fairly reluctant to offer prayer to Tiamat; because doing so would make her aware of their treasure hordes. However, Tiamat also has more non-dragon followers than Bahamut. So they probably balance out that way... Unless you want to include Golarion and Earth; both of which *technically* exist in the WotC D&D universe. In Golarion, Bahamut is revered under the name of Apsu. Tiamat also exists but (weirdly) scorns any worship from Golarion (their offspring Dahak takes the "evil dragon stuff" prayers in Golarion.) On earth, a deity named Apsu was revered by the babylonains, and a semidivine being known as Bahamut is found in mythology; Tiamat also existed but never was worshipped, instead she was killed as part of the Sumerian creation myth. SO, with the way deities work in D&D? Kurtulmak is stronger than Tiamat or Bahamut *specifically in Toril* (though would probably present himself as a lower rank to either of htem, because of the kind of being Kurtulmak is) but both Tiamat and Bahamut are much stronger outside Realmspace; with Bahamut probably having hte upper hand, if only by a margin.

Glad you went over Gond. I was looking for more information on him and get a better feel for the context of him. My reason is a recent character I put together. I made them an artificer but also decided to multi class them into a knowledge cleric. This was a god recommend for knowledge and fit the first tool proficiency I chose which was smith’s tools. I figured a follower of this god would be encouraged to pursue and understand crafts, particularly what an artificer brings to the table of a party. Of course, my artificer doesn’t stop there, how could they, more tool proficiency the better. Anyway, thanks for the lore!

I just recently made a drow that was born on the surface, and my character ha been having dreams from Eilistraee. So I decided to go look her up to get more info and stumbled on your videos. Awesome to hear she's your favorite, and after learning more and more about her, I think I'm going to try to become a champion of her though my character is a male. Her goals are beautiful and in many ways reflect a true cause in our world today. To be a light to salvation for the damned, and those that feel their world does not need to be this way, especially for the drow that have never known a different way of life or that there even could be.

Another tidbit about Azuth, god of spellcasting, back in 2nd edition, while playing in Forgotten Realms, I was alerted to the simularities between the god Azuth, and the gold dragon Nexus; including Azuth is (obviously) the god of spell casting and the dragon Nexus [according to the Realms Guide to Dragons] is thought of as the original dragon that developed dragon magic, which in turn was adapted by humanoids to form their magics; Furthermore the worship of Azuth had been started 600 years previously [in the timeline back in 2 ed], and the dragon Nexus [again, according to RGD] had only started dabbling in the affairs of mortals 600 years ago; Azuth was originaly a mortal that Mystara had elevated to being a god, and the most popular assumtion was that he used to be human, it is supposed that once he was the Magister of the age, but I think there are subtle hints that Azuth was once the gold dragon Nexus, and at times still holds the form.

One of my favorite characters I ever played was a Blood Hunter who worshipped Ilmater. In my DM's setting the Blood Hunters as an organization was more akin to the Inquisition from Warhammer 40k, a shadowy organization with a ton of power, and who were willing to sacrifice as many people as it took to get the job done. He eventually left the Order after a particularly bad mission and started to take up Oath of Redemption Paladin (He came into this campaign as a backup character after a previous character I had been playing died to peer pressure and the deck of many things, so we were about 8th level at the time) And at that point he became an adventurer, his entire paladin oath driving him to be compassionate, to be the shield of those suffering, and to always at least offer the same chance at redemption he had received to any evildoer he fought. A big part of his faith to Ilmater was based around trying to actually help people, but also as a plea to help take away the pain of the guilt for the things he, and his comrades had done in the name of the Blood Hunters.

Take a shot every time he says “my link” in the ad.

I love this.. please.. make deep dive in the dwarven pantheon. there is great lore about them. and they are really interesting

Wait, selune answer to all requests? You mean that If my character is diying in the wild under the moonlight I say a quick pray and she save me? Maybe resurrect me? How much are adventurer more powerful than what we think?

I assume there is a difference between "answers you" and "does exactly what you asked for," otherwise she'd probably be rank 20 for sure. So if you're bleeding out and pray for her help maybe the answer will just be something like "ok, I'm going to magically calm you and numb your pain, so this whole death thing isn't as horrible for you" rather than just making you immune to all mortal threats forever.

@@TheSquareOnes or maybe something on the line of "you die but you can reincarnate into a spirit guardian that defend the adventurers that pass near where you die". One of the things that I really don't like is that there are no rule for the players to use npc magic, those spell like abilities that grant, for example, some monsters liar action. I think it would be really good if they created a rulement for like a wizard to consult an arcanaloth to create a custom spell or for a paladin to pray to a God to have momentarily powers, like in the Greek mythos where a lot of heros would save themselves just by asking a god

A bit outdated i think. since the third edition ranking was done a lot has happened. Lot of the gods have died and come back and some gods have gotten upgrade and downgrades and some dead gods are even back i think. Also hahahaha Kurtulmak being more powerful than Tiamat. that's hilarious Irony. Yeah Kobolds are weak but at least they worship you and there is alot of em.

You should a series on the various planes of existence. I feel like some planes get way more attention then others, but are as interesting.

Makes me sad my boy Pelor got was essentially removed from this edition. He's not mentioned in the book at all. He used to be a faerun god as well. There was a temple to him in waterdeep in the Nat19 campaign. No explanation is given, they just stop mentioning the sun god :( Still in Greyhawk though. That's something I guess.

Um, Pelor was never a Forgoten Realms deity, the sun god was Lathendar the morning lord, you're refering to a bit of homebrew.

It is curious that Kurtulmak is a higher rank than Tiamat, being his servant for a long time. I understand why, but it's curious nonetheless

Simply put: Her own people do not worship her. An overwhelmingly high number of her followers are Humans and other humanoid races. As for Bahumet, he doesn't ask for direct worship so his followers are all very casual amd don't offer much devotion.

I hope you will go back and cover some of the lower tiers in-depth later. The almost gods are my favorites

You just gave my campaign a plot twist. Thank you.

You'd think that these gods would do more to sell themselves Like I would hire a marketing team and I'd be granting blessings like mad. They get how things work, so it's not like they don't know to do things that way.

To be fair, isn't that what clerics and priests are? Door to door god vendors? Of course if more gods were as generous as Selune is, it would definitely help out their cause. It would be intersting to explore why more gods don't grant blessings as freely. Perhaps generosity draws the ire of opposing gods and puts your faithfull in more danger, so that while a god might help you, perhaps some followers of evil gods make it their job to "Punish" those who cry for help.

I absolutely love these videos MrRhexx. There is a TON of information that can be used to really spice up our campaigns in your content. You ever do any GMing on stream?

Shaundakul is often overlooked, but according to Ed Greenwood, he saved many magic users during the Spell Plague. He also has had stepped on the toes of many deities, and got away with it. I think that even in the 2 Edition Pantheon book, it mentions that he killed a god or two during the Time of Troubles. He also has a unique worshiper alignment strip, going through all the Chaos Alignments (CG, CN, CE). He was a one time (possibly on an off again) lover of Selune. An interesting fact, his temple in Myth Dranor has a permanent avatar (of a sort) of his, yet not counting against the number of avatars he can control at a time. His favorite weapon for himself and clerics use Bows and Great swords. They get some Ranger abilities, and every so often, he shakes up his following, and turns them into mist forms, and they wind walk the day away, to be relocated in new locations. Honestly, he deserves some attention in 5th Edition, especially after Ed Greenwood's tweet about what happened to him. His history is very interesting.

Somewhere in the Wizards of The Coast office there is a spreadsheet with formulas to calculate the Divine Ranks of each god.

I cant wait for silvanus. I always like having that primal, wild god aspect in the game

videos on every single god ?! I.AM.HAPPY!

Umburlee, We were doing a pirate campaign in Saltmarsh and I made a deal with her. I'd do her a favor or two and she gave me a single wish. Me being a Tortle Pirate captain. I chose to become a Dragon Turtle at will. Only used it once but it was fun having that power up my sleeve.

The best reason to follow a lesser ranked deity - they have fewer people asking them for things, so are more likely to hear your prayers. It is a balance - greater gods have these awesome abilities, but almost always ignore you.

Thank you.

I hate that the god of Kobolds is more powerful than both the dragon gods 🤣

Great video, but I miss some fairly important gods of the Realms: Auril, Beshaba, Lovitar, Leira and Talona off the top of my head. All lesser gods I think, though Leira is supposed to have been murdered by Cyric at some point.. but with the goddess of illusion you newer know for sure hehe. Bhaal deserved a mention as he was god of death (but not the Dead) before those upstarts Cyric and Kelemvor, and a pretty iconic Faerunian intermediate power.

Idk if you read the comments for ideas but doing a list of the biggest or most dangerous aquatic threats would be pretty interesting.

Then there's Wee Jas, the greater diety that gave herself a demotion to intermediate goddess just to share some of the "excess" power with a select few. She's a law/death/magic goddess; she likes to delegate, make deals and enforce death as a part of nature.

Love how you care so little for the god of travel and portals that you use a picture of a caravan being trapped and attacked.

You think you might be able to do a video about the Forgotten Realms god Garagos? He's always been a personal favorite of mine even though there's little info about him. Heck even his wiki is only about 4 paragraphs long. I'd just like to see more info about a more vicious human god of war. I always imagined Garagos is Ares to Tempus's Athena in terms of what aspects of war they exemplify.

I haven’t seen the 20-30min vid on all the greater dieties. I’m looking forward to the one on MYSTRA
