The Gods of Toril

The Gods of Toril

This is a simple modder's resource module for NWN:EE that includes custom creature blueprints for the 30 major gods of Toril as they are described in the 3e sourcebook, Faiths and Pantheons: Azuth, Bane, Chauntea, Cyric, Eilistraee, Gond, Helm, Ilmater, Kelemvor, Kossuth, Lathander, Lolth, Malar, Mask, Mielikki, Mystra, Oghma, Selûne, Shar, Shaundakul, Silvanus, Sune, Talos, Tempus, Torm, Tymora, Tyr, Umberlee, Uthgar, and Waukeen.

The only area in the module is just there for the purpose of getting to the templates in the toolset. There's nothing in it. The deity blueprints are in the Creatures palette on the Custom -> Special tab and grouped by alignment in the Custom 1, 2, and 3 categories.

Originally, I had planned to make this a small quest module where the player would have to go through a gantlet of the gods from weakest to strongest before reaching the end. A good chunk of the last year was spent creating and then pitting these gods against each other in order to get that ranking (some fights taking up to 45 minutes to complete - I thought they'd never end). Unfortunately, by the time I was ready for the quest creation part, I lost motivation, and so I decided to upload what I had as a modder's resource, instead.

If you're interested in the test results, they're at the end of this mod description along with notes about the gods' NPC AI.

Ultimately, you are free to use these blueprints in your own modules/creations so long as you give me credit for the extensive work I put into making them. Please don't upload this module as it is to any other website, however.

What You Need

As I planned from the beginning on releasing this mod eventually, even if I never made the quest for it, I tried to keep everything as vanilla-friendly as possible to avoid incompatibilities with other modules. The gods use vanilla portraits and voice sets (though I made them as appropriate to each deity as I possibly could). They do use slightly-altered vanilla heads in the screenshots, so if you want them to look exactly as they appear there, you will need Coloured Eyes, Lips, & Eyebrows.

What You Get

The deities included in this module were created using a combination of feats and armor enchantments, because not everything I needed to make them accurately was available in either area alone, so I had to use both in tandem. As such, their armor and weapons are not lootable, though this can be changed if you want. Most helmets and cloaks are not enchanted at all, and are there merely for aesthetic purposes, though there are a couple of exceptions. Kossuth, Lolth, and Malar use rings.

What's included straight from canon:

• []Outsider classification and alignment.

  []Ability scores, skills, saving throws, divine immunities, and elemental resistances.

  []Most at-will spell-like abilities (or as close as NWN allows), though their usage is capped at 20 each for sanity's sake.

  []As close to their canonical class combos as I could get, though I had to cobble a few together (reducing 5 classes to the toolset's limit of 3, for example).

  []All feats that are available in the toolset to give to them (with a few exceptions, see below).

  []All weapons (or as close as NWN allows). This includes the bite and claw attacks of Lolth and Malar.

  []Appearances - I either went by official artwork, descriptions, cameos in other games, or all of the above.

  What is close to canon but not quite there:

  []AC - I'm pretty sure NWN caps out at a +20 AC bonus, so they probably don't quite make it to their canonical AC totals (though they do get close - I added the number of extra points they needed on their armors, even if it required duplicate AC enchants to reach - probably doesn't work, but I tried). Natural AC numbers in their toolset entries are indeed the natural AC scores provided in F&P, however.

  [*]SR - I'
