Lore · The gods

The Pantheon of Norrath

EverQuest’s gods are sorted here by the alignment printed in the EverQuest Role-Playing Game Player’s Handbook (White Wolf, 2002), the one official source that gives every major god an alignment. The live game never put alignments on screen, so take the sorting as tabletop canon. Each name links to its full deep dive.

Unaligned here: other gods and powers

The Handbook gives no alignment line for Brell Serilis, and the remaining powers are minor gods, demigods or later arrivals. We haven’t sorted them rather than guess. The 2001 manual describes Brell’s faithful as the “chosen inhabitants of the underground; slightly antagonistic.”
