[[folder:Races]]
!!Deva
Angels from the Astral Sea who became so enamored with mortal life and the world they lived in that they chose to give up their connections to the heavenly realms. Now, they reincarnate over and over, roaming the world that they grew so fascinated with. As a playable race, the devas largely replace the aasimar following the shift from 3.5e to 4e.
----
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: A variation; they're essentially this to the aasimars of earlier editions, but Wizards of the Coast owns the rights to both aasimar ''and'' to devas. They were created because [=WotC=] felt that the aasimars of old were rather lackluster in execution, being defined almost entirely by their status as the GoodCounterpart to the tieflings. Ironically, their "Ecology" article in ''Magazine/{{Dragon}} #374'' brought up the theory that devas being able to have partly-angelic children with other races may make them something of a counterpart to the elementally-touched genasi.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Deva skin is two-toned, being comprised of a unique pattern of dark colors (hues of blue, violet, gray or black) and pale colors (white or pale gray), with either light or dark dominating and being offset by markings from the other. Their hair is usually either one of these colors or even two-toned, but occasionally is an entirely different color.
* BornAgainImmortality: While devas are usually reborn in adult bodies, they are sometimes reincarnated as infants instead.
* FaceHeelTurn: Devas are usually strongly Good-aligned, but those that fall to evil may be reincarnated as fiendish rakshasas.
* ImmortalProcreationClause: Zigzagged. Devas can and do have offspring through sexual encounters with mortals. However, their own numbers are fixed; aside from redeeming rakshasas, or having other angels make the pact with the Primal Spirits, the total number of devas can never increase. The offspring of devas are instead mortals of their other parent's race with a deva heritage, granting them the power to call upon the astral splendor of their souls.
* MonochromaticEyes: Deva eyes are always a solid pale gray or white color, completely without iris or pupil.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: For all intents and purposes, devas are angelic beings incarnated in physical, humanoid bodies.
* ResurrectiveImmortality: Devas can be killed, but they don't ''stay'' dead. Instead, they ultimately come back in a new body at certain special spots, although this can take centuries and their past existence becomes nothing but vague memories in the back of their head. There are implications that devas can change their physical shapes, and perhaps even their genders, as a part of this process, but nothing really explicit.
* WingedHumanoid: A few devas retain angelic wings.
!!Shadar-Kai
One of the more complex-to-explain races in ''D&D'', the Shadar-kai initially began as an unplayable species of monster in 3rd edition, then changed into a culturally different species of playable humanoids in 4th and 5th. The 3e version are a race of fey who became trapped in the Plane of Shadow after a failed attempt to use it to enslave the mortal races, which causes it to begin eating their souls. The 4e version are a race of once-humans native to the Shadowfell who, through a combination of a pact with the Raven Queen and migration to the Shadowfell, achieved immortality at a cost. The 5e version are former elves who became bound to the Shadowfell during the great civil war between Corellon and Lolth as a result of their attempt to stay neutral and broker peace.
----
* CantArgueWithElves: Subverted with the 3e version. Nobody feels at all sorry for them having doomed themselves to the Shadowcurse, and nobody is disinclined to point out that they brought everything on themselves. Often at swordpoint.
* CastingAShadow: Consistent to all versions of shadar-kai is an elemental affinity for darkness. The precise powers vary somewhat between editions. 3e shadar-kai also have a fondness for classes based around using shadow magic.
* ChainPain: The spiked chain, which is a length of metal chain covered in barbs and blades, is the iconic weapon associated with the shadar-kai.
* CombatSadomasochist: Because shadar-kai of all editions need stimulation, they display no fear of death and often revel in taking injury as much as they do inflicting it. Indeed, the 3e shadar-kai have a signature item called the gal-ralan, a cold iron armband with its interior lined with long spikes, requiring the shadar-kai to viciously impale its forearm in order to close it; the pain this inflicts helps keep the shadow-curse at bay. 4e shadar-kai don't normally go to that same extreme, but are huge fans of tattooing, piercing and scarification as a result of their own shadow-curse.
* DarkIsEvil: 3e shadar-kai are universally evil, horrible creatures.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Shadar-kai from 4th and 5th edition are more morally and culturally diverse, and evil shadar-kai are not the norm.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Consistent throughout the editions is the shadar-kai's color scheme; black hair, black eyes, and pale gray skin along with their connection to the spooky Shadowfell.
* {{Emo}}: With their "edgy" appearance and living in the plane of despair, a common joke among fans is that Shadar-Kai round out the trifecta of Elven cliques, along with goth Drow and prep High Elves.
* FlashStep: 4e shadar-kai can meld into shadows and use those to reappear almost instantly at another point on the battlefield.
* HumanSubspecies: 4e shadar-kai were originally humans, but made a pact with the Raven Queen and migrated to the Shadowfell in pursuit of immortality.
* MoralMyopia: 3e shadar-kai hate all other races because of their shadow-curse, which ultimately consumes them and leaves behind nothing. They never stop to think that maybe it's their own fault for trying to merge the Plane of Shadow with the Material Plane in order to create TheNightThatNeverEnds, which they wanted to do because they believed it would give them the power to enslave all other races.
* NamesTheSame: Aside from the basic concept of "humanoids cursed to ultimately fade away into nothing and with an elemental affinity for darkness", the shadar-kai of each edition have very little to do with each other.
* NeverMyFault: 3e shadar-kai refuse to admit that they brought the shadow-curse upon themselves and instead take out their pain and frustration on all other races as a result.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: 5e shadar-kai are an elven subrace, born of the designer's decision to try and marry elements of their past two incarnations together.
* PerkyGoth: 4e shadar-kai are dark and gothicpunk-looking figures, with their propensity for garish colors, vicious-looking ornaments and extreme body modification. Personality-wise, they're a vibrant, active and passionate people with a "live fast, die young, leave a good-looking corpse" philosophy and a culture that considers bragging a sport. It's justified; acting with typical goth apathy or despair will actually kill Nentir Vale shadar-kai faster, so acting more "alive" does the inverse, which leads to an odd juxtaposition of gothicpunk appearances and jockish culture.
* ShoutOut: They're consistently depicted in a manner very reminiscent of a more PG-rated version of the Cenobites from ''Film/{{Hellraiser}}''.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: All Shadar-kai know that death is inevitable; if not killed by violence, then they will inevitably die of ennui, fading away into nothing as the shadow energy consumes them from the inside out. 3e shadar-kai rail against this fate and lash out at other races in spite because of it. 4e shadar-kai accept it as the price they pay for their longevity and strive to live life to the fullest whilst they can.
!!Revenant
Originally living humanoids of any of the races native to the TabletopGame/NentirVale world, revenants died and were then brought back by some eldritch entity -- usually, but not always, the Raven Queen. Transfigured into white-and-black hued humanoids with raven-like limbs, revenants either are driven by a compulsion to complete a task that brought them back, or else are desperately seeking a purpose in life.
----
* BlackEyes: A revenant's inhumanity is made clear by the solid black color of its eyes.
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Many revenants awaken into unlife with no clear reason as to ''why'' they did so, and
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Revenants almost universally have pale white to ash gray skin, black hair, and BlackEyes. The black talons and reddish-black scales on their limbs only to the monstrousness of the effect.
* RedRightHand: The forearms and lower legs of a revenant are covered in scales, which combined with the long, black talons that sprout from their fingers and toes makes their appendages resemble the legs of a giant raven. This trait ensures that few people could mistake a
!!Vryloka
Descendants of a collection of human aristocratic families who made a pact with an entity known only as The Red Witch for power, being transformed into beings with powers similar to those of vampires whilst still remaining living beings. Though the peasants they formerly ruled over rose up in revolution when they discovered the now-inhuman nature of their masters, the vryloka successfully scattered to the four winds and have since integrated themselves into cultures all over, maintaining their own secret society that strives to entertain them through the long nights of their existence.
----
* {{Dhampyr}}: Whilst technically a separate creature -- dhampirs ''do'' exist in the TabletopGame/NentirVale as the descendants of living beings and vampires -- vryloka are very similar, in that they share the same kind of "living vampire" racial motif. They have many vampire-like abilities, and powerful vryloka can even transform humans into new vryloka, but they aren't undead, don't need blood to survive, and are completely fine with sunlight, holy symbols and garlic.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: The rare vryloka who doesn't have red hair is invariably pale-skinned and black-haired.
* FieryRedhead: Vryloka are almost universally redheaded, with hair colors ranging from deep scarlet to strawberry blonde, and they are all characterized as highly passionate and emotion-driven by nature.
* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Whilst vryloka only live about 300 years "naturally", they remain strong and vital up until the end, and the downside of their highly passionate natures means that they really struggle with ennui, albeit not quite as much as the shadar-kai.
!!Shardmind
A race of psionic crystalline beings brought into existence when a crystalline structure/entity known as the Living Gate was shattered; many of its shards spontaneously awoke as newly sapient humanoids. They now seek to fulfill what they believe is their purpose by restoring the Living Gate, but they don't agree on ''how'' that should be done: Thought Builders strive for its reconstruction, God Shards believe that strengthening themselves will cause the Living Gate to be restored, and Shard Slayers believe that only by destroying all Shardminds and other physical remnants of the Living Gate will it be restored.
----
* SiliconBasedLife: They're made of living crystals, and even have the ability to dismantle themselves into a spinning vortex of loose crystals and then reform.
!!Wilden
A race of humanoid plants from the Feywild, the Wilden are dedicated to protecting the wild places of the world from defilement.
----
* PlantPerson: They're humanoid plants with a very human-like appearance, having leaves for hair and wood for flesh.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Gods]]
!!Asmodeus
God of Sin, Lord of Devils. Originally an archangel in service to a deity now known only as "He-Who-Was", Asmodeus led his fellow angels into turning on his master and slaying him before erasing all but the barest vestiges of knowledge of him from existence. As he perished, He-Who-Was pronounced a dying curse on his betrayer, warping Asmodeus and his traitorous angels into the first devils and imprisoning them in Baator, which was similarly warped into a blasted hellscape.
----
* BigRedDevil: Has a classic "Satanic" appearance.
* EvilMakesYouMonstrous: His fiendish visage is a curse for his act of treachery and deicide.
* FallenAngel: The very first FallenAngel in the World Axis, and defined the concept; there are plenty of evil angels, because the angels serve all the gods indiscriminately, but a true fallen angel has actively rebelled against service to the deities.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: None of the other gods trust or like Asmodeus, but they tolerate him because the gods who survived the Dawn War are too few to risk throwing more lives away through divine squabble.
!!Avandra
Goddess of Freedom, Luck and Adventure.
----
*
!!Bane
God of War and Tyranny. Originally known as Achra, Bane slew his brother Tuern because he perceived Tuern as a threat to the gods' successful defense against the primordials during the Dawn War. He claims credit for inspiring the gods to act together and use combined tactics to prevail against the individually stronger and more numerous but highly disorganized primordials. He believed that this would make the gods continue to operate under his leadership and was incensed that they turned their backs on him to go their own ways.
----
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: Despite his arrogance and tyranny, Bane is one of the evil gods most widely accepted and worshipped by mortals of all kinds and characters; in a world as dangerous and lawless as the Nentir Vale, Bane's doctrine of strength, discipline and duty is appealing as a bastion against the dark forces that lurk in the wilderness.
* BadBoss: Originally, Bane was the beloved patron deity of the bladelings, whom he created from the first mortals to serve him. However, he betrayed them by leaving them to hold the line against a massive invasion by Gruumsh's forces whilst he went off to personally subjugate the goblin god Maglubiyet and claim dominion over all goblinoids; when he returned, he cared nothing for the casualties his faithful bladelings had taken in repelling Gruumsh's army and only cared iabout his new goblinoid slaves. This offended the bladelings so much that the vast majority of the race turned against him and abandoned Chernoggar, with some going so far as to form an underground army dedicated to expelling Bane and Gruumsh both from Chernoggar and reclaiming it as their own homeland.
* EvilVersusEvil: Is locked in an endless civil war against Gruumsh for dominion over his realm of Chernoggar.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: According to his myths, his true name is Achra, but he came to be known simply as "Bane" due to the skill he showed in defeating and slaying primordials and their elemental followers during the Dawn War.
!!Bahamut
God of Honor and Justice. One of the two gods created when the dragon god Io was split in half by the primordial Erek-Huss, Bahamut embodies all that is noble and pure about his progenitor.
----
* ChromeChampion: He is known as "The Platinum Dragon" because his scales are always a brilliant metallic platinum in color. Even when he takes on the form of a humanoid, he still typically has hair and/or eyes of platinum.

Goddess of Death, Fate and Winter. Originally a mortal sorceress-queen who died and ended up in the domain of Pluton, realm of the god Nerull, God of Death and the Dead. With an indeterminate amount of aid from other deities who disliked Nerull, she seduced and then murdered Nerull before taking his place. However, the gods refused to let her claim both of Nerull's domain, afraid that she would become as tyrannical as he, and instead only permitted her to claim dominion over death -- something that rankles her. She later claimed the domain of winter after its former owner, Khala, was slain in a godly civil war, and likewise snatched up dominion over fate after its former owner, Lolth, was ousted from the ranks of the gods.

[[folder:Races]]
!!Deva
Angels from the Astral Sea who became so enamored with mortal life and the world they lived in that they chose to give up their connections to the heavenly realms. Now, they reincarnate over and over, roaming the world that they grew so fascinated with. As a playable race, the devas largely replace the aasimar following the shift from 3.5e to 4e.
----
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: A variation; they're essentially this to the aasimars of earlier editions, but Wizards of the Coast owns the rights to both aasimar ''and'' to devas. They were created because [=WotC=] felt that the aasimars of old were rather lackluster in execution, being defined almost entirely by their status as the GoodCounterpart to the tieflings. Ironically, their "Ecology" article in ''Magazine/{{Dragon}} #374'' brought up the theory that devas being able to have partly-angelic children with other races may make them something of a counterpart to the elementally-touched genasi.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Deva skin is two-toned, being comprised of a unique pattern of dark colors (hues of blue, violet, gray or black) and pale colors (white or pale gray), with either light or dark dominating and being offset by markings from the other. Their hair is usually either one of these colors or even two-toned, but occasionally is an entirely different color.
* BornAgainImmortality: While devas are usually reborn in adult bodies, they are sometimes reincarnated as infants instead.
* FaceHeelTurn: Devas are usually strongly Good-aligned, but those that fall to evil may be reincarnated as fiendish rakshasas.
* ImmortalProcreationClause: Zigzagged. Devas can and do have offspring through sexual encounters with mortals. However, their own numbers are fixed; aside from redeeming rakshasas, or having other angels make the pact with the Primal Spirits, the total number of devas can never increase. The offspring of devas are instead mortals of their other parent's race with a deva heritage, granting them the power to call upon the astral splendor of their souls.
* MonochromaticEyes: Deva eyes are always a solid pale gray or white color, completely without iris or pupil.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: For all intents and purposes, devas are angelic beings incarnated in physical, humanoid bodies.
* ResurrectiveImmortality: Devas can be killed, but they don't ''stay'' dead. Instead, they ultimately come back in a new body at certain special spots, although this can take centuries and their past existence becomes nothing but vague memories in the back of their head. There are implications that devas can change their physical shapes, and perhaps even their genders, as a part of this process, but nothing really explicit.
* WingedHumanoid: A few devas retain angelic wings.
!!Shadar-Kai
One of the more complex-to-explain races in ''D&D'', the Shadar-kai initially began as an unplayable species of monster in 3rd edition, then changed into a culturally different species of playable humanoids in 4th and 5th. The 3e version are a race of fey who became trapped in the Plane of Shadow after a failed attempt to use it to enslave the mortal races, which causes it to begin eating their souls. The 4e version are a race of once-humans native to the Shadowfell who, through a combination of a pact with the Raven Queen and migration to the Shadowfell, achieved immortality at a cost. The 5e version are former elves who became bound to the Shadowfell during the great civil war between Corellon and Lolth as a result of their attempt to stay neutral and broker peace.
----
* CantArgueWithElves: Subverted with the 3e version. Nobody feels at all sorry for them having doomed themselves to the Shadowcurse, and nobody is disinclined to point out that they brought everything on themselves. Often at swordpoint.
* CastingAShadow: Consistent to all versions of shadar-kai is an elemental affinity for darkness. The precise powers vary somewhat between editions. 3e shadar-kai also have a fondness for classes based around using shadow magic.
* ChainPain: The spiked chain, which is a length of metal chain covered in barbs and blades, is the iconic weapon associated with the shadar-kai.
* CombatSadomasochist: Because shadar-kai of all editions need stimulation, they display no fear of death and often revel in taking injury as much as they do inflicting it. Indeed, the 3e shadar-kai have a signature item called the gal-ralan, a cold iron armband with its interior lined with long spikes, requiring the shadar-kai to viciously impale its forearm in order to close it; the pain this inflicts helps keep the shadow-curse at bay. 4e shadar-kai don't normally go to that same extreme, but are huge fans of tattooing, piercing and scarification as a result of their own shadow-curse.
* DarkIsEvil: 3e shadar-kai are universally evil, horrible creatures.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Shadar-kai from 4th and 5th edition are more morally and culturally diverse, and evil shadar-kai are not the norm.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Consistent throughout the editions is the shadar-kai's color scheme; black hair, black eyes, and pale gray skin along with their connection to the spooky Shadowfell.
* {{Emo}}: With their "edgy" appearance and living in the plane of despair, a common joke among fans is that Shadar-Kai round out the trifecta of Elven cliques, along with goth Drow and prep High Elves.
* FlashStep: 4e shadar-kai can meld into shadows and use those to reappear almost instantly at another point on the battlefield.
* HumanSubspecies: 4e shadar-kai were originally humans, but made a pact with the Raven Queen and migrated to the Shadowfell in pursuit of immortality.
* MoralMyopia: 3e shadar-kai hate all other races because of their shadow-curse, which ultimately consumes them and leaves behind nothing. They never stop to think that maybe it's their own fault for trying to merge the Plane of Shadow with the Material Plane in order to create TheNightThatNeverEnds, which they wanted to do because they believed it would give them the power to enslave all other races.
* NamesTheSame: Aside from the basic concept of "humanoids cursed to ultimately fade away into nothing and with an elemental affinity for darkness", the shadar-kai of each edition have very little to do with each other.
* NeverMyFault: 3e shadar-kai refuse to admit that they brought the shadow-curse upon themselves and instead take out their pain and frustration on all other races as a result.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: 5e shadar-kai are an elven subrace, born of the designer's decision to try and marry elements of their past two incarnations together.
* PerkyGoth: 4e shadar-kai are dark and gothicpunk-looking figures, with their propensity for garish colors, vicious-looking ornaments and extreme body modification. Personality-wise, they're a vibrant, active and passionate people with a "live fast, die young, leave a good-looking corpse" philosophy and a culture that considers bragging a sport. It's justified; acting with typical goth apathy or despair will actually kill Nentir Vale shadar-kai faster, so acting more "alive" does the inverse, which leads to an odd juxtaposition of gothicpunk appearances and jockish culture.
* ShoutOut: They're consistently depicted in a manner very reminiscent of a more PG-rated version of the Cenobites from ''Film/{{Hellraiser}}''.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: All Shadar-kai know that death is inevitable; if not killed by violence, then they will inevitably die of ennui, fading away into nothing as the shadow energy consumes them from the inside out. 3e shadar-kai rail against this fate and lash out at other races in spite because of it. 4e shadar-kai accept it as the price they pay for their longevity and strive to live life to the fullest whilst they can.
!!Revenant
Originally living humanoids of any of the races native to the TabletopGame/NentirVale world, revenants died and were then brought back by some eldritch entity -- usually, but not always, the Raven Queen. Transfigured into white-and-black hued humanoids with raven-like limbs, revenants either are driven by a compulsion to complete a task that brought them back, or else are desperately seeking a purpose in life.
----
* BlackEyes: A revenant's inhumanity is made clear by the solid black color of its eyes.
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Many revenants awaken into unlife with no clear reason as to ''why'' they did so, and
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Revenants almost universally have pale white to ash gray skin, black hair, and BlackEyes. The black talons and reddish-black scales on their limbs only to the monstrousness of the effect.
* RedRightHand: The forearms and lower legs of a revenant are covered in scales, which combined with the long, black talons that sprout from their fingers and toes makes their appendages resemble the legs of a giant raven. This trait ensures that few people could mistake a
!!Vryloka
Descendants of a collection of human aristocratic families who made a pact with an entity known only as The Red Witch for power, being transformed into beings with powers similar to those of vampires whilst still remaining living beings. Though the peasants they formerly ruled over rose up in revolution when they discovered the now-inhuman nature of their masters, the vryloka successfully scattered to the four winds and have since integrated themselves into cultures all over, maintaining their own secret society that strives to entertain them through the long nights of their existence.
----
* {{Dhampyr}}: Whilst technically a separate creature -- dhampirs ''do'' exist in the TabletopGame/NentirVale as the descendants of living beings and vampires -- vryloka are very similar, in that they share the same kind of "living vampire" racial motif. They have many vampire-like abilities, and powerful vryloka can even transform humans into new vryloka, but they aren't undead, don't need blood to survive, and are completely fine with sunlight, holy symbols and garlic.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: The rare vryloka who doesn't have red hair is invariably pale-skinned and black-haired.
* FieryRedhead: Vryloka are almost universally redheaded, with hair colors ranging from deep scarlet to strawberry blonde, and they are all characterized as highly passionate and emotion-driven by nature.
* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Whilst vryloka only live about 300 years "naturally", they remain strong and vital up until the end, and the downside of their highly passionate natures means that they really struggle with ennui, albeit not quite as much as the shadar-kai.
!!Shardmind
A race of psionic crystalline beings brought into existence when a crystalline structure/entity known as the Living Gate was shattered; many of its shards spontaneously awoke as newly sapient humanoids. They now seek to fulfill what they believe is their purpose by restoring the Living Gate, but they don't agree on ''how'' that should be done: Thought Builders strive for its reconstruction, God Shards believe that strengthening themselves will cause the Living Gate to be restored, and Shard Slayers believe that only by destroying all Shardminds and other physical remnants of the Living Gate will it be restored.
----
* SiliconBasedLife: They're made of living crystals, and even have the ability to dismantle themselves into a spinning vortex of loose crystals and then reform.
!!Wilden
A race of humanoid plants from the Feywild, the Wilden are dedicated to protecting the wild places of the world from defilement.
----
* PlantPerson: They're humanoid plants with a very human-like appearance, having leaves for hair and wood for flesh.

!!Asmodeus
God of Sin, Lord of Devils. Originally an archangel in service to a deity now known only as "He-Who-Was", Asmodeus led his fellow angels into turning on his master and slaying him before erasing all but the barest vestiges of knowledge of him from existence. As he perished, He-Who-Was pronounced a dying curse on his betrayer, warping Asmodeus and his traitorous angels into the first devils and imprisoning them in Baator, which was similarly warped into a blasted hellscape.
----
* BigRedDevil: Has a classic "Satanic" appearance.
* EvilMakesYouMonstrous: His fiendish visage is a curse for his act of treachery and deicide.
* FallenAngel: The very first FallenAngel in the World Axis, and defined the concept; there are plenty of evil angels, because the angels serve all the gods indiscriminately, but a true fallen angel has actively rebelled against service to the deities.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: None of the other gods trust or like Asmodeus, but they tolerate him because the gods who survived the Dawn War are too few to risk throwing more lives away through divine squabble.
!!Avandra
Goddess of Freedom, Luck and Adventure.
----
*
!!Bane
God of War and Tyranny. Originally known as Achra, Bane slew his brother Tuern because he perceived Tuern as a threat to the gods' successful defense against the primordials during the Dawn War. He claims credit for inspiring the gods to act together and use combined tactics to prevail against the individually stronger and more numerous but highly disorganized primordials. He believed that this would make the gods continue to operate under his leadership and was incensed that they turned their backs on him to go their own ways.
----
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: Despite his arrogance and tyranny, Bane is one of the evil gods most widely accepted and worshipped by mortals of all kinds and characters; in a world as dangerous and lawless as the Nentir Vale, Bane's doctrine of strength, discipline and duty is appealing as a bastion against the dark forces that lurk in the wilderness.
* BadBoss: Originally, Bane was the beloved patron deity of the bladelings, whom he created from the first mortals to serve him. However, he betrayed them by leaving them to hold the line against a massive invasion by Gruumsh's forces whilst he went off to personally subjugate the goblin god Maglubiyet and claim dominion over all goblinoids; when he returned, he cared nothing for the casualties his faithful bladelings had taken in repelling Gruumsh's army and only cared iabout his new goblinoid slaves. This offended the bladelings so much that the vast majority of the race turned against him and abandoned Chernoggar, with some going so far as to form an underground army dedicated to expelling Bane and Gruumsh both from Chernoggar and reclaiming it as their own homeland.
* EvilVersusEvil: Is locked in an endless civil war against Gruumsh for dominion over his realm of Chernoggar.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: According to his myths, his true name is Achra, but he came to be known simply as "Bane" due to the skill he showed in defeating and slaying primordials and their elemental followers during the Dawn War.
!!Bahamut
God of Honor and Justice. One of the two gods created when the dragon god Io was split in half by the primordial Erek-Huss, Bahamut embodies all that is noble and pure about his progenitor.
----
* ChromeChampion: He is known as "The Platinum Dragon" because his scales are always a brilliant metallic platinum in color. Even when he takes on the form of a humanoid, he still typically has hair and/or eyes of platinum.
!!Corellon
God of Fae, Art, Beauty and Magic.

With an indeterminate amount of aid from other deities who disliked Nerull, she seduced and then murdered Nerull before taking his place. However, the gods refused to let her claim both of Nerull's domain, afraid that she would become as tyrannical as he, and instead only permitted her to claim dominion over death -- something that rankles her. She later claimed the domain of winter after its former owner, Khala, was slain in a godly civil war, and likewise snatched up dominion over fate after its former owner, Lolth, was ousted from the ranks of the gods.
