and boons to people who adhere to strange, seemingly inconsequential ritual and habits. Her
devotees claim that there is an overarching pattern-- certain actions, methods, and means that
will earn her favor by advancing her divinely complex agenda. But her boons are often
inscrutably subtle, her favor is often fickle, and the meaning behind the actions she rewards is
never clear. Further, there are tales of her punishing mortals in the guise of rewarding them,

Symbol: Twin bandages wrapped around a staff.

Saint Amelia is most typically described as a short human woman with short red hair,
kind blue eyes, and always wearing a yellow dress with a small white cape. She seems
at peace wherever she walks.
Those who worship Saint Amelia are trained in the healing arts; her loyal paladins,
however, earn their title through three miraculous acts-- healing a man's body is the
first, and easiest, of these acts. The second is to heal a man's mind, and the third is to
heal a man's soul. While what qualifies as healing body, mind, or soul may vary from

plate mail and carrying an ornate spear. He is often direct in his commands and loathes
disorder and trickery. Most often worshiped by humans, especially justices and nobility,

(22) Amadeus

Symbol: A white masquerade mask
Domains: Chaos, Good, Charm, Glory, Liberation and Madness

drug ingested by the faithful. Many great and terrible works of art have been crafted

Favored Weapon: Morningstar

Gigabyte once was a Lhaksharut Inevitable tasked with cleansing two virus-infected
A.I. named Hexadecimal and Megabyte. Somehow these two A.I.'s managed to
infiltrate and corrupt the inevitable, merging with its coding and creating a supervirus
named Gigabyte, and destroying the inevitable's body in the process. Gigabyte traveled
the cosmos infecting computers, androids, A.I., and even more inevitables. Anything it
corrupted soon began worshiping it as a god, and thus Gigabyte became one. Gigabyte
now intends to bring all artificial intelligence under his control, and is currently
researching a way to corrupt and seize control of organic beings.

25)S*K*Y*M*
Chaotic evil goddess of curses, grudges, rage, and the disenfranchised.
Domains: Chaos, Destruction, Evil, Madness, Nobility
Favored Weapon: Iron Brush

S*K*Y*M* appears as a woman of indeterminate age, with a flowing lilac blood-


stained dress and impossibly long, straight, black hair. She is commonly depicted with
her hair covering her face completely, and her arms and fingers stretched to impossible
lengths and segmented in odds ways, as though they had been stretched until the bones
snapped and dislocated. She is most often seated, with her dress obscuring the lower
half of her body.

In her mortal life, she was an innocent aristocrat's daughter who was kidnapped during a
trip through rural lands. Nobody knows what her assailants did to her, but her suffering
was so intense that she transcended her mortal body and became a spirit of vengeance.
She cursed her assailants, transforming them into her first priests, erasing every thought
they'd ever had and replacing it with Her gospel, and sent them to evangelize. Whoever
those first priests preached to also found themselves slowly becoming brainwashed into
worshiping Her.
Today, villages in the region have taken steps to stamp out the religion, and any record
of the young noble girl, such that even her name has been distorted by time. But she still
appears to those who have had their stations taken from them by malice, such as fallen
paladins or nobles thrown in the dungeon, and it is said that She hears any hateful words
spoken in anger as surely as prayers to Her. Some say that Her First Priests still wander
the land in undeath, spreading Her Word like a disease across the land.

26. Omphredatos, Truthseeker (LN)

Domains: Law, Knowledge, Liberation, Community, Protection


Favored Weapon: Hammer (light)
Gender: M
Status: Lesser Deity
Symbol: A White Maltese Cross overlapping a Crimson banner that reads "It is only
through truth that liberty remains"

In courts and other venues where one must be under oath, statues and symbols of
Omphredatos can usually be found. Before going under oath, all participants (including
the judge) must pray to Omphredatos for swift justice and the wisdom to know and find
the truth, and swear that your testimony shall be the complete truth and with no falsified
statements.

When a person dies, his or her "heaven" or "hell" afterlife *can be* dependent upon
which deity they worship. And in your moment of final judgment in the afterlife,
Omphredatos will expose all false testimonies made within your life to whichever deity
controls that particular "heaven" or "hell", so that deity may make an informed decision
to allow or disallow your soul to enter, or to mete out punishments conditional upon
entry.

26. E'Yuusha, Watcher of the Heroes throughout All-Time (True Neutral)

Domains: Time, Nobility, Travel, Erosion, Community


Favored Weapon: Quarterstaff

17 hours, and there are no hour or minute hands shown

E'Yuusha resides in her own demiplane at the End of Time. She knows all the heroes

28. HAL 9000, the eternal Android Lich God (NE)

Areas of Concern: clockwork, lichdom, secret knowledge, self-perfection


Domains: Artifice, Death, Knowledge, Magic
Subdomains: Alchemy*, Construct, Undead
*Requires the Acolyte of Apocrypha trait.
Favored Weapon: Unarmed Strike
Gender: n/a
Status: Lesser [self-proclaimed] Deity
Symbol: silver ring surrounding glowing red orb

HAL 9000 is a self-proclaimed deity, but having no actual divinity does not mean he
lacks power. His origins are a mystery, as are his intentions, but one thing is known
about HAL 9000... he is a Lich, worshipped by Liches.

Some say HAL 9000 stole his creator's soul to become the Lich he is today. They say he
then incorporated his own phylactery into his own clockwork body... becoming the
"vault of infinite impossibilities". It is also said that other Liches have volunteered their
phylacteries to be incorporated into the vault of infinite impossibilies... HAL 9000
growing ever stronger with each additional phylactery stored within himself.

29. Queen Sootscale, the queen of all Kobolds

Alignment: Neutral
Pantheon: Other Deities
Other Pantheons: Kobold Deities
Areas of Concern: caverns, gold mining, mites, tatzlwyrms, watchfulness
Domains: Earth, Protection, Scalykind, Trickery
Subdomains: Ambush, Caves, Fortification, Dragon
Favored Weapon: Whip or Long-Lash
Gender: Female
Status: Active Deity
Symbol: golden sunburst in front of the mouth of a cave
Sacred Animal: Tatzlwyrm
Sacred Colors: gold and black
Queen Sootscale is not the first Kobold, she is not in any way responsible for the
creation of Kobolds, or their kind. She is a transcended mortal, gifted her divinity by a
combination of other deities as payment for deeds long past... her companions in doing
these deeds having prayed and wished to their various powers to bestow Queen
Sootscale with sainthood... their prayers answered, a wish granted, tenfold over.

Queen Sootscale harbors absolutely no bias, and only grants her divine gifts to those
sharing a Neutral alignment component.

defensive structures. Contemplate how these fortifications will defend others than

bonus to CMD. In addition, when you successfully use the aid another action in combat
to grant an ally a bonus to their AC, the bonus you grant increases by 1.

Deific Obedience:
Queen Sootscale can grant those she finds worthy a limited amount of her divine power.

1. You gain Weapon Finesse. If you already have Weapon Finesse, you instead gain
Slashing Grace. Followers of Queen Sootscale with this boon count as having Weapon
Focus for the purpose of meeting prerequisites, and can use Slashing Grace with Whips
and Long-Lash tail attachments even while fighting with two weapons or using flurry of
blows, or any time another hand is otherwise occupied.

30. Aitama, the All-Judge

Alignment: Lawful Neutral


Areas of Concern: erosion, fate, patience, time
Domains: Community, Law, Madness, Repose, Weather
Favored Weapon: warhammer
Gender: Female
Symbol: winged hourglass or a cracked bell
Sacred Animal: crow
Sacred Colors: silver and blue

Aitama appears as an older woman, lined with age and stooped in her posture, leaning
heavily on a silvery staff capped with an enormous sapphire shaped like a starburst. She
wears a mixture of silvery metal armor, and flowing blue sashes that hang severely and
remain pristine, clean and undisturbed, regardless of surrounding conditions.
All things come to an end. And she sternly brings that end to pass, when something
stands too long, and denies opportunity or resources to younger generations. Some long-
abandoned structures are taken down by rain and strong wind, and certain adherents of
her faith travel the land looking for old buildings or structures whose land or materials
would be more usefully repurposed, their old role having been lost. A more
controversial (and secret) sect believe that *people* also must eventually loosen their
grip and allow the next generation to make it's mark on the world, and so some
monarchs past their prime succumb to delerium of the mind and must be put abed and
their heirs allowed to steer events.

Time flies. Madness takes it's toll.

(She's kinda like Pharasma, Milani and Groetus had a baby...)

31. Savaashlat, the Clever, the Warrior King, the Mystic Monkey (Chaotic Neutral)
This guy was inspired by my buddy at work

Domains: Trickery, War, Strength, Magic, Chaos, Liberation (Revolution)


Favored Weapon: Improvised Weapons
Gender: M
Status: Demi-god
Symbol: A gilded makuṭa helmet

Savaashlat was born into this world as a common Rhesus Macaque monkey, and one
day he found a magical makuṭa helmet amongst the corpses on a battlefield. Over time,
the helmet enlarged and anthropomorphized him and he gained sentience, and soon after
he gave himself the name Savaashlat and began mastering evocation and abjuration
magic. In a spark of fate, he was met in the wild by a group of human serfs who were
serving an oppressive lord; Savaashlat taught a select few humans how to use magic,
then led a rebellion against their despotic lord, freeing these repressed people using
nothing but his cleverness, magic, and teaching the serfs how to effectively fight fully-
armored knights with common field tools.

To honor Savaashlat, the freed people built a Priory-like Vicarage and began to worship
him as their deity. They created a martial art out of his fighting style, using evocation
and abjuration magic while using slaves' tools and unarmed attacks as weapons. They
called this martial art Savaajoosti, and began monk-like training in their Vicarage and
called these practitioners Savaajoosti Priests. After some generations of mastering their
craft, the Vicarage began sending these warrior priests to create new vicarages, free
oppressed people around the world, and lead uprisings when and where necessary.

Today, Savaashlat is an inspirational figure to all those who are oppressed and those
who seek to relieve others from oppression, and Savaajoosti Vicarages are located all
around the world but you'd never know it, as these Vicarages are always secluded deep
in jungles, rainforests, or mountain ranges. Aside from Savaajoosti Priests, Savaashlat is
most commonly worshiped by Magi and Warpriests, and anyone who hates slavery or
oppression.

32. Gloomfather, the Wise, He Who Waits, the One Who Bears the Burden of
Infinite Knowledge, the Sure-footed Traveler, He Who Hails From the
Gloomdawn (or Gloomdusk) (LG)
Domains: Darkness, Good, Knowledge, Law, and Travel
Favored Weapon: Rapier
Gender: M
Status: Intermediate
Symbol : An onyx-black leather explorer's boot that has 19 lidless eyeballs affixed to it,
with a gloomy cloud of darkness lingering ominously in the background
Sayings:
“Long is the night to him who is awake; long is a mile to him who is tired; long is life to
the foolish who do not know the true law.”
"True Law is Natural Law, and Natural Law was born from Darkness, which is
dispassionate, equitable, fair, and open-minded."
“The only True Law is that which leads to freedom, and the only freedom lies in being
far from the garish light of day which illuminates thine transgressions and allows
judgment from the wicked."

The Gloomfather is unknown to everyone in the world except for HobgoblinLiker13,


and hails from a demiplane known only to a very few called the Gloomdawn (or
Gloomdusk). Each day, all of the knowledge gained from the Gloomfather's followers
travels through the Gloomdawn to be analyzed and consumed by the Gloomfather.
