Your character's choice of deity represents the higher being that he or she worships. Choice of deity has no significant impact on your character, though it may be referenced during the game. The list below contains only a brief summary of each deity.
Note: For those of you interested in a significantly more in depth look at the Gods in the Forgotten Realsms, we urge you to check out the Deities of Faerun section. It contains detailed profiles, histories, dogma, and descriptions of individual relationships with other Gods. It's WELL worth a read.
