Celtic Pantheon
The Celtic Pantheon is old, deeply rooted in nature, and focuses on every
person's resourcefulness and work ethic. There are no lay-abouts
with this group of cutters. As a planar pantheon, they are relatively
young, but very popular with planewalkers. Why? Most of them
are based in Tir na Og in the outlands, and therefore their priests lose
no spellcasting levels around the great wheel. They also found in
many Dungeons & Dragons suppliments. As for resources, I used
(in order of age): (1) Legends & Lore by James M. Ward and Troy
Denning [pgs. 57 - 69], (2) On Hallowed Ground by Colin McComb [pgs.
66 - 75], (3)
Dragon Magazine #283, "Do-It-Yourself Dieties" by
Stephen Kenson [pg. 35], and Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting by
Greenwood, et al [pgs. 234-251]. All these works help me create this
pantheon guide for those interested in playing Celts. All the gods
below are in the following form:
Diety |
Power Level |
Diety Alignment |
Worshipper Alignment |
Portfolio |
Symbol |
Typical
Worshippers |
Domains |
Favored
Weapon(s) |
In all of the forms,
one domain will be in bold. To keep the flavor of the diety, it is
highly recommended that clerics of that diety chooses that as one of his
domains.
