==Gods of the Pact Worlds==

In the centuries since Pathfinder, some gods have risen, other have fallen, and some apparently stayed behind on Golarion. This is who's hot right now: 

'''[[Abadar]]''': [[Lawful Neutral]] God of Commerce, Law, and Civilization. Still going strong, only he now runs a corporation rather than simply a bank. 

'''Angradd''': The brother of [[Torag]], now chief Dwarven god since Torag vanished in the Gap. 

'''[[Besmara]]''': [[Chaotic Neutral]] A minor Goddess of Piracy back on Golarion, the advent of Space Piracy gave her a boost to the big leagues. 

'''[[Cayden Cailean]]''': Went on an ''epic'' bender immediately after the Gap. When he finally emerged from a decades-long stupor, he'd found that his church had severely lapsed. He pulled his church together with a new goal of helping people recover, whether it's from substance abuse, grief, or self-destructive coping mechanisms. He still loves drink, adventure, and partying, but he's now also a safe haven for all kinds of people. 

'''[[Damoritosh]]''': [[Lawful Evil]] War God of the Vesk. 

'''[[Desna]]''': [[Chaotic Good]] Goddess of Luck and Travel. The expansion into space travel has only made her more well-known. 

'''[[The Devourer]]''': [[Chaotic Evil]] God of Destruction who wishes to destroy everything. Apparently not [[Rovagug]], who is MIA along with his prison. 

'''[[Eloritu]]''': [[True Neutral]] God of Magic and Truth. 

'''[[Hylax]]''': [[Lawful Good]] Bug-Goddess of Diplomacy, Peace, and Friendship. Used to be worshipped by the Swarm until they decided to go all Tyranid. Needless to say, she was happy to see the Shirren break away. 

''' [[Ibra]]''': [[True Neutral]] God of mysteries and celestial bodies. 

'''[[Iomedae]]''': [[Lawful Good]] Spirit of Golarion as well as the patron Goddess of Humanity. In the future, has gone full [[Imperium of Man]], sans the [[Grimdark]], Oppression, and Genocide. Instead, they went full-tilt with the stained glass cathedral-ships

'''[[Lao Shu Po]]''': [[Neutral Evil]] Rat Goddess from Golarion, she was a Rat who ascended from munching on the corpse of a dead God. Once a minor deity venerated in the Dragon Empires, Grandmother Rat has risen to patron Goddess of [[Horned Rat|Thieves, Spies, and Assassins]]. ...Say, has anyone seen Norgorber lately? 

'''[[Nyarlathotep]]''': [[Chaotic Evil]] Outer God. Yes, ''that'' Nyarlathotep. Mostly worshiped on Aucturn.

'''[[Oras]]''': [[Chaotic Neutral]] God of Adaptation, Evolution, and other forms of Change([[Tzeentch|No]]). Has nothing to do with the [[Pokemon|Hoenn region]].

'''[[Pharasma]]''': [[True Neutral]] Goddess of life and death, forever busy with assigning the departed to their afterlife. The undead, however, piss her off for trying to cheat her out of the job.  Going like always; she's the oldest God there is and this isn't her first planetary rodeo.

'''[[Sarenrae]]''': [[Neutral Good]] Sarenrae has seen little change in her disposition since the old days, But her main temple is on the Sun now, so there's that. 

'''[[Talavet]]''': [[Lawful Neutral]] Female Kasathan Erastil.  Marginally less pleasant than the grumpy-but-loving old codger.

'''[[Triune]]''': [[True Neutral]], probably.  A long time ago, the Anacites of Aballon got bored and decided to make their own [[Transformers |Primus]]. Once they activated the city-sized neural net, the nascent god known as Epoch showed his superiority to every other godlike AI in history, and decided that rather than wiping out organic life, he would get laid. Fortunately for him, two waifus were just two planets over on Golarion: Brigh, the young, hip new Construct Goddess of Clockwork and Invention, and Casandalee, an uploaded Android AI that recently (time skipped by the Gap notwithstanding) arose to divinity in a ''Pathfinder'' Adventure Path. After what we can only assume was the AI equivalent of [[Anime]] love triangle hilarity (and, again we assume, a ''lot'' of save scumming on Epoch's part), they decided to go the Threesome Ending, and thus Triune was formed from their merging. They still retain their individual personalities and portfolios, and Casandalee's actually varies a bit depending on the events of her Adventure Path (though [[Pathfinder 2e]]'s giving the 1e APs canon endings locked that in). Collectively though, Triune is the god of driftspace.

(Canonically it's closer to "Epoch looked for beings like it when it awoke, found two right next door, then after a nice AI-god chat mutually agreed to form a networked collective greater than the sum of its parts," but that's the ''boring'' answer.)

'''[[Urgathoa]]''': [[Neutral Evil]] Goddess of disease, gluttony, and undeath. Being the first to cheat Pharasma's judgment and creating undeath, she's very open to sharing the pleasures of life and flesh to anyone whether they want. Death is considered a nuisance, so they welcome undeath with open arms.  Still kickin' baby.  Shows those other evil gods for not having ''some'' positive aspects to 'em.

'''[[Weydan]]''': [[Chaotic Good]] God of discovery, exploration, and freedom. 

'''[[Yaraesa]]''': [[Neutral Good]] Goddess of knowledge, mental perfection, and SCIENCE! 

'''[[Zon-Kuthon]]''': [[Lawful Evil]] God of darkness, loss, and pain. Still the same sadomasochistic freak as before, since it's what gets at least ''one'' designer's dick rock-hard/pussy soaking wet and he has some connection to the horrors of deep space, 'cept his sister Shelyn's missing in action...  which means the biggest restraint on his insanity is lost.
