Editing Quelmar Deities

__NOTOC__ {{Worldbuilders}} {{Expand list}}
'''The Quelmar Deities''' are a pantheon of divine powers that create, patrol, and manipulate the various planes of the [[Quelmar Universe]]. Quelmar, as a project of the gods, is watched over by the council of '''Greater Gods''' who helped create it, as well as a handful of '''Lesser Gods''' who later became attached to the Quelmar project during the [[The Plane Wars|Plane Wars]] or otherwise, followed by nearly countless '''demi-gods''': creatures recognized by the gods for their significant impact on Quelmar and granted divine immortality and spectating capabilities over the realm. 

While individuals in Quelmar may find themselves attached to many powerful beings, the following lists encapsulate the most popular and well-known deities in the realm.

{{GreaterGods|About=This list of gods is LOCKED. The creator gods are SET IN STONE. Add your god to a lower tier.}}

== The Tied: Lesser Gods ==
'''Lesser gods''' would be offended to be called demi-gods, but unlike the creator deities, they often involve themselves with mortals. They are usually concerned with their worshipers. At the very least, they value their worshipers for their own existence, for without them, they would lose their power. At most, they are sympathetic and may directly involve themselves in the happenstances of the mortal world. However, this involvement is usually indirect.

=== Quelmar Originals ===
These gods were invented by players and DMs for stories set in the Quelmar Realm

=== Transplants ===
These gods were popularized elsewhere, but brought into Quelmar (and now canonically exist here) thanks to a player's passion for them.

== The Granted: Demi-Gods ==
'''Demi-gods''' are aspiring gods who may have few worshipers, but desire greatness. They are the most likely to be granting spells to mortals, interfering in their affairs, or even just observing the mortal realms. They are often so new to their divinity, they cannot yet shake their interest in mortality and it may take them several centuries to truly feel beyond it. 

Demi-gods are sometimes created from one of the greater gods as aspects, avatars, or extensions of their divine will. [[Pelor|Pelor's]] aspect [[Lathander]] is an example of this phenomenon.

== The Servants: Exarchs ==
'''Exarchs '''are servants of a greater or lesser god. They possess powers comparable to demi-gods, but whereas demi-gods generally strive to bolster their own divinity, exarchs exist to serve the interests and enforce the will of a more powerful deity. Exarchs can be just as inclined, however, to intervene in the mortal realms as gods or patrons. For more information on who an exarch serves, see their article.

The Nordic-inspired gods of [[Ysgard]] who serve under [[Odin]] are examples of exarchs.
