Deities of Breon: an Overview

Breon has inumerable deities some with unfathomable power others with very specific and limited power. Some entities are not truly gods or even immortal but are so powerful and long lived that they walk among the pantheons rather than mortal circles. The two primary defining attributes of a god or deific entity are the following:
  • Followers, worshipers, or some other group possesing strong faith in the entity
  • The ability to bestow powers upon their believers (i.e. to have clerics)

Entities fulfilling these requirements can largely be categorized into one of three groups:

Major Deities
Minor Deities
Lesser Deific Entities

Major Deities

The following list of deities are those commonly believed in around the world of Breon. Anywhere the common tongue is spoken, these beings are known. The gods are separated into 4 groups, each least powerful than the last. At the end of the document, Spirit Deities are discussed. These constitute lesser or specific patron deities which have limited scope or power.

The Forebearers

The forebearers are those gods who proceed all others. Gaillen, Sonath, Thamos, and Dunnean. From them came all others and everything.

Sonath
Gaillen
Dunnean
Thamos

The Children

The children, or the primes in some areas, are the four children of Gaillen from which all life on The Planes is formed. From them flow the prime elemental energies which give shape to all of known existence. While their power is vast, it is unbridled and wild not like the controlled powers of the greater gods.

Aciona
Koruk
Daegon

The Created Ones

The created ones are those gods who were forged in part or wholly by the forebearers. Each was given a select purpose and a spark of their creator’s power. This makes them fractions as powerful as the Forebearers, but still stronger than any of the ascended

Kavos
Thyron
Kulkemos
Zultos

The ascended Ones

The ascended ones, or simply the ascended or ascendants, are mortal beings who were either endowed with a spark of godhood or somehow unlocked the means to rid themselves of The Planes of existence. They exist as both forces of control and reminders of ancient greatness even though they have the least power among all the gods
