Colldria being a continent on Toril, shares the same gods as other continents on the world such as Faerun. The world of Toril is defined by active divinity. Gods walk the world through avatars, empower mortals directly, feud openly, and sometimes die. Most people worship many gods situationally, while clergy and chosen champions devote themselves fully to one.
Portfolio: Magic, the Weave
Alignment: Neutral Good
Expanded Notes:
Mystra is not merely a magic goddess—she is the regulator of magic. All arcane spellcasting passes through the Weave, her divine construct. When Mystra weakens or dies, magic becomes unstable, wild, or catastrophically dangerous.
She encourages magical innovation but enforces limits—especially against spells that threaten reality itself. Her Chosen (such as Elminster) wield Silver Fire and act as living anchors of the Weave.
Portfolio: Dawn, Renewal, Birth, Creativity
Alignment: Neutral Good
Expanded Notes:
