Lesser and demi-gods

Apart from the main god in the Primal, Divine and Draconic pantheon, a number of less powerful deities are also worshiped across different cultures. These beings broadly fall into two categories: lesser gods and demi-gods, the main distinction being that demi-gods are subservient to and/or get their power from a greater deity, and lesser gods do not.

All of these deities may only have one domain. Beings such as Archfey or Archdemons are often considered to be of a similar power level to these deities, and sometimes (but not usually) put in the same category.

Lesser gods
Lesser deities are beings whose divinity is not dependent on a greater deity, thus, effectively commanding their own religions. Most of the time, at least according to legend, these are powerful mortals who earned their own divinity through their great feats in life, and are commonly regional deities and important ancestors.

Examples include:

Ra-Aton

The Moon King

Demi-gods and saints
Demi gods are deities who have been granted a form of divinity by a greater deity. In most cases, these demi-gods are subservient to this greater deity, and the greater deity reseerves the right to remove the demi-gods power. Usually, these are particularly accomplished champions (often clerics or paladins) of a particular religion who are elevated for their deeds, or powerful celestial lieutenants to a particular god.

In the Divine Pantheon, these demi-gods are known as saints, and often are worshiped in place of the divines themselves by those who wish to have a more "humanized" connection to the gods.

Examples include:

Vaino

Saint Juliena

Simbarr

Serel
