Pantheon
The Eight are the primary pantheon of Kipernia, typically worshiped by humans their temples are by far the most common, although some more than others. Many non-humans also worship, or at least acknowledge these gods due to the prevalence of Human Civilization. Pelor and Bahamut are the most commonly worship, often having their temples together. It is not uncommon to see a temple of Erathis combined with the other 2 into a grand temple in major cities. Temples of Ioun are often either hidden or located in areas with large concentrations of magic users. And do to their very nature, Avandra and Melora often have their temples located in more remote locations, while Kord and The Raven Queen keep a respectful distance from the others.
