A lot. There's a bunch of ones most people follow, but elves and dwarves and gnomes and halflings and others all brought their gods with them, so people follow those as well.
Does one have to be in charge? I don't think we have a god in charge.
[They do, but it's not common knowledge]
The first elves were born in the Feywild. That's a different plane than the one I'm from. So that's why there's an elven god of the moon who isn't THE god of the moon.
Well, it's weird goin' from hearin' Ashera's watchin' over stuff to...uh...she's not, an' we ain't sure if anyone is now. Sure isn't Yune...Ah think.
[Maybe someone knows, but it isn't her. Theology isn't her strong point. And she's admittedly not making much sense, probably, all things considered, but she doesn't think about that, because that requires a level of self-awareness she doesn't possess at the moment.]
Reckon different groups havin' different gods makes sense... [In theory. She thinks.] Plane...so it's like a different world from yours?
Yeah, but... you can have planes that are pretty much like this world, or our homeworlds, but you can also have planes, which are... kind of linked to an idea of something. Like the Elemental Plane of Water is... well, full of water. Land and air aren't really things there, and it has people who just went there and now they, or their kids, just live there now, but also elementals. Basically magic water spirits?
[not to mention the Outer Planes which you can go to with enough magic, but is also where souls end up after death]

Given the stuff here, magic makes as much sense as anythin'. Though Ah'd love to see somethin' that counts as 'moon plants'.
Wait, so if she's not your patron, how many gods are there your way?

Brought them with them?
