I have to build a pantheon of gods for my game's campaign setting. I took the few Homebrewed gods we made up, and filled up the rest of the pantheon with gods I found in assorted books I have. (mostly Deities & Demigods...) I chose gods based on anything from "that god's teachings really fits well with one of the new races we made" to "that god has a cool picture". So far, I have 41 gods altogether. I still have to go make sure I've covered everything. ("No one grants the travel domain!" "Lawful Rogues don't have anyone to worship!" "There's no god of Magic!" etc.) And make sure there aren't too many redunancies. ("I've got seventeen CE gods granting Destruction, War, and Death domains!?") What problems with a homemade pantheon are less obvious than that? Is there anything that I'm not likely gonna see until comes up in the game? Who else has create a pantheon from scratch, and what problems did you have?
