Gods of Hollow
Like any other fantasy-based realm, Hollow has its own deities, which are geared toward worshiping and following. Generally, these beings leave the mortal realm to govern themselves, only interfering in the direst of circumstances. Examples of these types of happenings would be the gods' actions (Sven, Hind, and Lore initially, then ultimately Xalious) against Khasad and Elazul.
The Gods of Hollow are as follows:
The Triad
These three men were given godhood when they fought the forces of the dark immortals and gave their lives to protect Hollow. They now sit at the table of the Greater Gods in their Sacred Realm.
- Sven - Supreme God of Hollow, God of Wisdom, Archmage of the Xalious Frontier
- Hind - Deity of Nature
- Lore - Archknight of Cenril
Elder Gods
Gods of the Natural
- Q'na - Deity of Time and Space

- Zaytor - God of Tempests, Lakes & Rivers
- Xalious - God of Magic
- Vakmatharas - God of Death
Gods of the Mystic
- Cyris - God of Freedom, Travel & the Crossroads
- Cire - Deity of Chaos
- Loda - Goddess of the Forge & Ale
- Aramoth - God of War
- Delisha - Goddess of Pleasure & Inspiration
- The Spider Goddess
Racial Gods
These gods tend to be worshiped by one particular race or racial group; it is unknown whether they are truly gods in the divine sense, though it is known that their shamans do seem to possess the same kind of divine blessings afforded other priests.
- "He Who Hungers" (Gerthaog) - Neutral Evil Ogre God
- Aka "Gerthaog of the eternal hunger." However, ogres avoid saying his name outside of prayers because they consider it bad luck.
- Rothik - Chaotic Evil Orc God
The Trærne
There are three holy trees in Hollow's lands, which rise above the others in majesty and power.
One lies in Xalious, another in Sage, and the last In the Kingdom of Enchantment. Druids, Dryads, and natural creatures of all kinds revere these trees with the utmost respect.
The Røttene
The Ascendi
The Nine Ascendi and Three Dark Immortals (Elazul, Khasad, and Arrecation) no longer have access to the physical plane and thus cannot influence the affairs of mortals. Other gods from popular games or mythology also hold no power here! Characters are free to pray to, or worship, whatever other "god" they wish, so long as the Player fully realizes that their character is merely being superstitious and praying to something that doesn't exist within this realm and can grant no favor.
