Demigod

From Forgotten Realms Wiki

Demigods, also known as Exarchs are considered the first rung on the ladder of the gods. As gods, they are immortal and capable of granting spells to the clerics of the roughly 300 to 3,000 worshippers that typically pray to a deity of such power.

Due to their very natures, demigods represent a very narrow and restricted ideal or aspect of existence. This means only a certain group of mortals will consider the demigod suitable for worship, until either the ideals that the demigod embodies become more popular or the demigod is given or takes the portfolios of other deities.^[1]

[edit] Demigod Abilities

A demigod may create and control a small realm (generally within one of the Outer Planes) that can be shaped and controlled as the demigod wishes. Additionally, the demigod has a small ability to shape reality in regards to his or her portfolio as it relates to mortal life, become extraordinary in some skill related to his or her portfolio, and extend his or her senses to a mile away from an avatar or any holy sites dedicated to him or her.
