Lesser Deities of Illnaya

Lesser-Deities

These beings aren’t worshiped outside of small cults around the world, though they may have followers or servants upon their home planes. These beings are a step below the Greater Gods, but are not to be taken lightly, for not even the gods will attempt to slay these beings without urgent need.
