Deities

The world of ShadowGate is pantheistic and includes many deities who may be worshipped by mortals. While any mortal may make offerings to any deity to appease him or her, each mortal is also encouraged to choose a patron who will help guide the mortal’s life. These are the deities and their spheres of influence, their spell domains.

The Great Old Ones

The Great Old Ones are otherworldly entities of almost unimaginable power – beings completely alien to the mortal, physiologically and spiritually. They don't exactly experience existence and remain in lost dimensions outside of known cosmos, yet their power is so great they can influence mortal minds in their dreams and nightmares, even if such influence is as accidental as a star's gravitational pull on a tiny mote of dust adrift in space.
