The Chosen are individuals imbued with divine power by one of the deities of the Realms, which grants them various abilities and boons, such as stopping the process of aging.[citation needed]
It is believed that all deities are capable of choosing mortals, though it is impossible to say whether all of them take advantage of this power.[citation needed] It is possible for one being to be the chosen of more than one deity.[1]
As of 1485 DR there were no Chosen who weren't also exarchs.[2]
