I am a player in an interesting game. In this game, our characters are "lost souls" from dead worlds destroyed by some unnamable horror, and we have been called back from our various and sundry afterlives/nonexistances (I think we would technically qualify as vestiges if binders were allowed and we were much older). We remembered nothing of our previous identities, and are starting to recall it. My problem is I need a WotC published campaign setting and deity to fit me well.

The character is a Chaotic Good Illumian Warlock with a Fey Heritage who refers to himself simply as Kyrish. Just reached level 2, power sigils are "magic" and "soul".

I was thinking of maybe the Doubter or the deity of inspiration if I go with something out of the Illumian pantheon, but none of them seem terribly appropriate. Possibly a fey deity of some kind/form (in acknowledgement of my nature)? I don't know enough about various settings pantheons to be able to name something appropriate, or even what setting can accept a CG fey heritage illumian warlock without being more rare than highly cultured upper class orc aristocrats. =)

The other sorts of information the DM wants as part of what we remember I can coem up with, I just lack a broad enough knowledge of campaign settings and pantheons to come up with an appropriate choice.
