The people of Nentir Vale, by and large, worship a syncretic collection of deities known variously as the Lords of the Sky, the High Gods, the Elders, and the Great Ones. They are drawn from the ancestral pantheons of the four dominant races, but have largely been combined into a single unified pantheon over the years. | The people of Nentir Vale, by and large, worship a syncretic collection of deities known variously as the Lords of the Sky, the High Gods, the Elders, and the Great Ones.

Some people feel especially drawn to one individual deity or another, but most respect and revere the pantheon as a whole, and most churches are dedicated to the gods in general. Collectively, this is known as the High Church. There are regional variances, of course; a given deity may have especial prominence in one community, only to be relegated to secondary status in another, but it’s a rare community that doesn’t at least acknowledge them all. | Some people feel especially drawn to one individual deity or another, but most respect and revere the pantheon as a whole, and most churches are dedicated to the gods in general.

By and large, the Lords of the Sky are distant beings who do not directly interfere in mortal affairs; they may send prophetic dreams and cryptic messages, but they almost never take a direct hand. | By and large, the Lords of the Sky are distant beings who do not directly interfere in mortal affairs; they may send prophetic dreams and cryptic messages, but they almost never take a direct hand. | ||
