Ralishaz
The Uninvited
Ralishaz, the Uninvited, is the god of madness, chaos, and misfortune. This makes him less awful than gods such as Gruumsh or Llolth, but make no mistake, he is a threat. Ralishaz brings woe to the lucky man, and inflicts madness on the sane. To him, only the insane can truly know the universe.
Followers of Ralishaz are as unpredictable as one might expect. They believe that nothing really matters, so they are equal parts stoic and reckless; they commit random acts of chaos ranging from harmless pranks to shocking violence, and those who aren't already crazy indulge in mind-altering substances in the hopes of glimpsing the truths of the universe. Most of Ralishaz's faithful are society's outcasts: the mad, the downtrodden, rebels without causes, and nihilists who just want to watch the world burn. He's particularly fond of the derro, whose minds were shattered by mind flayers long ago.

Tenets of Faith
- Only the mad can see the world as it truly is.
- There is no order, only random chance. Do what you will.
- Sanity and good fortune are curses in their own right. Work to undermine those of sound mind and good luck to even the balance.
