Ao the Overgod is the most important of them, for he rules over all other deities, even though he has few worshippers.

  • There are 6 major deities that created the land of Syrindof and have watched over it for centuries. These Gods take on diffrent forms, ranging from dragons to mermaids. Each god or goddess watches over a different aspect of Syrindof, aspects such as magic, water and hunting. These Gods get their power from the six fountains that can be found at the area. In the game eternal glory, these gods are brainwashed into destroying the world by an evil cult known as the eradicators, who wish to rebuild the area as the start of their new empire.

  • The deities of Polaqu are many. Where they dwell is unknown, how many there are is unknown, and where clerics draw their power from is unknown. For each island, nation, race, and village, there are separate gods. They draw their power, but not even the wisest archmages can determine the location of the gods.

Any other coincidences of similar names or ideologies are just that. There is one major god for each of the 9 specific alignments. These gods follow a loose and broad embodiment of their specific alignment. There are also some lesser gods beneath the major ones which generally "specialize" in one element or aspect of that alignment (Revenge, Justice, Greed, Archery, Murder).

  • Traditional Wiccan ritual addresses two deities, one male and the other female. The names of these are, in British Traditional Wicca, kept secret, making public descriptions of them necessarily incomplete. Some things that can be said about these deities are: In British Traditional Wicca, A Wiccan is introduced to the God and Goddess at their First Degree Initiation, but the names are not revealed until a later degree.

Despite having a role in human religion and possessing free will, the plurality of them are cruel, petty, uncaring, and only concerned with themselves and their survival. Some of them are neutral or indifferent to humans, and a handful of them have even been shown to be acting in accordance to the well being of humanity (Prometheus), but many are evil.

  • Deities are the most powerful and important beings in the worlds of the Legend of Zelda series. Deities vary widely in their form and the extent of their power.
