Deity

A deity is a member of a pantheon (or other demigod or entity) that is worshiped on Faerun (and other worlds).

At character creation, one must choose a deity from a list Forgotten Realms deities. These are common deities worshiped and include pantheons from remote areas like Mulhorand and Chult. If a character's current deity is not compatible with his current alignment or class, the deity will need to be changed to one that actually fits the character.

Heterodox Domains

Aside from their normal, canon domains, some deities on Baldur's Gate: The Sword Coast Chronicles also have access to several extra domains. These domains are considered heterodox domains - they are at odds with the traditional worship of that god, representing independent interpretations of that god's doctrine. In some cases, these domains represent outright heretical beliefs, and they are opposed, sometimes violently, by the mainstream church. In other cases, heterodox followers are accepted as a valid interpretation of their god's doctrine, even if more traditional priests do not agree that they "have the right of it." The Luck domain is a particularly common heterodox domain, representing a more free form interpretation of that god's will - Luck heterodox clerics differ from mainstream beliefs typically by believing one should allow the whims of the world and their god to guide them. Luck heterodox clerics are often much less attached to the dogma of their god than more traditional clerics, believing that their god's message can be found in many different ways.

How a god is able to bestow the powers of domains they do not normally grant is unclear. In some cases, another god or entity may be granting the domain's powers in place of the god the priest thinks they are venerating, while some gods may actively seek to foster conflict and debate within their worshipers.

Heterodox Domains are marked in italics on the deity list.

Examples

Every heterodox cleric has their own reasons for believing the way they do. Some examples of why priests of a certain god might have these uncommon domains include the following.

Myrkul (Travel, War)

Clerics of Myrkul with the Travel domain focus on Myrkul's role as a god of transition and new beginnings. He is the ferryman that brings souls from one life and into the next, and so should not be feared.

Clerics with the War domain believe Myrkul to be the king of war, that the truth of war is death, not honor, glory, freedom, conquest, or any of the other hollow causes claimed by those who fight. In the end, the only kingdom that ever wins in war is Myrkul's.

Selûne (Darkness)

Clerics of Selûne with the Darkness domain often come from the Dark Moon heresy, the idea that Selûne and Shar are two sides of the same goddess. Others favor the outcast and the lost, and believe strongly in the importance of internal judgment over external judgment, that what is hidden is private and that personal truths are more valuable than absolute truths.

Siamorphe (Luck, Magic)

Clerics of Siamorphe with the Luck domain believe that there is no divine right in blood - kings can produce incompetent fools while the simplest peasant can give birth to the wisest rulers of men. These clerics place little value in the aristocracy and do not care about heritage or lineage. They seek out rulers from whereever they can find them, such as among the common folk or local minority groups.

Clerics of Siamorphe with the Magic domain often come from or advocate for magocratic societies where the ruling class is comprised of spellcasters. These clerics believe that those with magic have been blessed directly by the gods, or else that their arcane knowledge makes them wiser than non-magical rulers.

The Gods of Fury (Fury)

Though the Gods of Fury is not an uncommon belief, representing the alliance between Talos, Auril, Malar, and Umberlee, some priests take this belief further and worship Fury as a whole. This is most commonly represented by expanding which gods are considered a "god of fury." They often believe that the entire orcish pantheon is an aspect of the Gods of Fury (and that Gruumsh is Talos, or vice versa), as well as various other gods of pain and destruction like Loviatar and Urdlen.

The Gods of Renewal (Healing)

The Healing and Renewal domains represent two sides to rejuvenation. To renew is to accelerate or empower natural growth, to purge the body of poisons and toxic elements (physically, mentally, and spiritually) and emerge on the other side as a better, cleaner person. To heal, on the other hand, is to impose one's holy power on another. It is the divine miracle, the grace of the cleric and their god bestowed upon the subject to restore them to strength. Heterodox Healing clerics serving Renewal gods - who tend to be gods of nature - are often priests in civilized communities, rather than rural ones, and are typically more self-sure than the traditional priests of that god. They usually come from two extremes: those very new to the faith, impatient and eager, and those elder members of it - where long years of power and leadership has lead to arrogance.

Deity List

The following deities are used in NWN2. Player characters may also opt to worship no deity at all (unless class requires one). If the character is a cleric or favored soul, they must have one of the god's provided alignments. If the character is a druid or spirit shaman, they must have an neutral alignment that is within one step of the deity's alignment. If the character is a cleric, they must choose domains associated with their deity.
