Deity

Radiance beaming from his eyes, the indescribable form of what at one point was an elf shines upon a mass of extraplanar invaders. The being waves its hand, and all that is left of the intruders is a smoldering pile of ash.

At the top of Mount Celestia, an ascendant human holds out her palms, breathing in the revitalizing winds. Her skin shimmers with starlight reminiscent of the skyline in the astral plane. In front of her she sees a town of her most devoted worshipers, and with a clap of her hands, rain begins to fall, shielding this summers crop from a heavy heat.

The sounds of battle clang from every direction as a legion of orcs bear down on their enemies. From the front line, the commander sends a prayer to their god of war, who answers with a clap of thunder, and a strike of lightning that takes out a battalion of foes.

A deity is just that, a god in every right. Though they may not have started that way, or asked for this power, fate has chosen them to play a part in the grand course of the multiverse. Deities are often people of incredible poise and presence, they can seldom walk in a room without drawing eyes.

Creating a Deity

When creating a deity, try to choose ahead of time which domain your deity will control. Your domain will determine the strengths of your deity.

Once your domain is chosen, consider how your deity views the world. The alignment of a deity plays a greater role in the multiverse than a normal adventurer. Your alignment will decide how you eventually govern your domain, whether you reward devotion and kindness, or granted power to those who reveal in destruction.

Quick Build

You can make a deity quickly by following these suggestions. First, put your highest ability score in either Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma, followed by either Strength or Dexterity. Second, choose the noble background.

Hit Points

• Hit Dice: 1d20 per deity level
• Hit Points at 1st Level: 20 + your Constitution modifier
• Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d20 (or 11) + your Constitution modifier per deity level after 1st

Proficiencies

• Armor: All, shields
• Weapons: All
• Tools: Choose any three artisan’s tools or musical instruments
• Saving Throws: One of Strength, Intelligence, or Charisma, and one of Dexterity, Constitution, or Wisdom
• Skills: Choose any two skills

Equipment

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:

• (a) A heavy crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) any weapon
• One equipment pack of your choice
• (a) A shield, or (b) any weapon

Divinity

You are destined to shape the fate of the planes. The maximum for your ability scores is 30, and while not wearing armor, your AC equals 15 + your proficiency bonus. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.

However, your power overshadows mortal magic. You cannot benefit from magical bonuses to your ability scores, AC, attack and damage rolls, proficiency bonus, saving throws, or save DC of any kind. Other magical effects, such as increased speed or advantage on saving throws against spells, apply as normal.

Divine Implement

You manifest a weapon reflective of your divine status. On your turn you can summon your divine implement in your empty hand (no action required). It is a martial weapon with which you are proficient, and you choose when you gain this feature whether it has the Finesse, Heavy, Range (150/600), Reach, or Thrown (20/60) property. Alternatively, you can forgo choosing a property to instead use either Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma for its attack and damage rolls (choosing when you gain this feature). If you choose Range, it also has Two-Handed, otherwise it has the Versatile (1d12) property.

Your divine implement deals 1d10 damage on a hit, and the damage type depends on your alignment: radiant (good), force (neutral), or necrotic (evil). Your divine implement counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Your divine implement disappears if it is more than 5 feet away from you for 1 minute or more. It also disappears if you use this feature again, if you dismiss the weapon (no action required), or if you die.

Arcana

The Arcana domain covers the existence and use of magic. Deities of the Arcana domain have command over magic like no other mortal can comprehend. Whether for creation or destruction, knowledge, or power, Arcana deities govern the nature and use of magic all across the multiverse.

God of Arcana

18th level Arcana feature

You can use this feature a number of times equal to half your deity level, rounded up, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

On a failed save, the target takes a additional number of d8s equal to your proficiency bonus as necrotic damage and is frightened of you for one minute. On a success, the target takes half as much damage and isn't frightened. A frightened creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on a success.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. You can also use this feature by expending a use of Shape Fate. Once you do, you must finish a short or long rest before you can do so again.

• Smelt - The object glows red-hot. Any creature in physical contact with the object takes a number of d10s equal to your proficiency bonus as fire damage. If a creature is holding or wearing the object and takes the damage from it, the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against your Shape Fate DC or drop the object if it can. If it doesn't drop the object, it has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of your next turn.
• Warp - The object warps, becoming drastically less effective. Any weapon affected this way becomes an improvised weapon, while any armors give the wearer a -2 penalty to their AC. Any object not being worn or carried takes a number of d10s equal to your proficiency bonus as force damage. An armor can only be warped once. Magical items cannot be warped.
• Refine - The object is refined, regaining hit points equal to a number of d10s equal to your proficiency bonus. For 1 hour, any weapon affected this way deals an additional 2 damage of that weapon's type on a hit, while any armors reduce all bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage taken by the wearer by 2.

Soul Herder

3rd level Grave feature

When a creature within 120 feet of you dies, you can use your reaction to draw its soul to you. It appears as a dull mote of light that hovers and circles around you. If the creature's soul would be destroyed or trapped from its manner of death, you can expend a use of Shape Fate as part of the same reaction to prevent that effect, safely bringing the creatures soul to you instead. While you have at least one soul, you can use your action to do one of the following:

• Send the soul safely to the afterlife.
• Expend a use of Shape Fate to return the soul to its body if it is within 120 feet of you and the DM decides the body is capable of returning to life. The creature then stabilizes at 0 hit points.
• Consume the soul, destroying it and causing you or a creature within 120 feet of you that you can see or that is at 0 hit points to regain hit points equal to the number of Hit Dice that soul had.
