A
- AgmonThe god of trade, one of the lesser gods loyal to the Greater God Alarath, whom no wise one wants to anger.
- ArcaneusThe god of time, one of the Draconic Gods, whose domains are time and knowledge and whose symbol is the hourglass. The Empire counts him a guardian of time set by Alarath; the Order of Nus'ar held him the only true god.
- AuxigonThe proper religious term for divine beings whose portfolios and influence are limited to a narrower concept or a single region, such as nature spirits, gods of the seasons and local deities. Calling them Lesser Gods is thought disrespectful.
D

- The DaughterOne of the Old Gods of Geron, the goddess of knowledge and arcane, whose domains are knowledge and magic and whose symbol is a sitting child.

G
- Geroni religious traditionThe faith of the Geroni city-states as told in the Yeni Dünya campaign, from an old shared theocracy to a turn towards reason, with gods whose names were erased yet who are still honoured as the Mighty Father, the Merciful Mother and the Wise Child.
- God-Spirits of FrazaThe pantheon of the Fran people of the north, made up of the Great Wolf, Skadri, Stagdal, Ursa and Yrmoghl. The northerners do not worship them as the Empire worships its gods, but bargain with them for protection from cold, monsters and a bad hunt.
- Gods of The VoidNameless and incomprehensible entities that belong neither to the material world nor to the upper or lower planes. They were not created by the Dark Father, and their power reaches the world only as a kind of distortion.
- Gods of TradeThe gods who value the growth of society through trade and commerce, and whose dogmas hold that civilisations grow along trade roads and with the signing of deals. Agmon, a lesser god loyal to Alarath, is the god of trade.
- Great WolfOne of the God-Spirits of Fraza, the god of fury, whose domains are strength and valour and whose symbol is a wolf's head. The people of Fran name the Great Wolf Ulfa the mightiest of their gods.
