Gods of Kislev
Kislev, the region of the Old World corresponding roughly to the Slavic lands of Russia, Czech Republic and Poland, has its own gods, as well as worshipping Taal and Rhya, and Ulric. These gods may be intended by the designer to be part of a greater northern pantheon.
- Ursun, Father of Bears, is the ruler of the Kislevian pantheon, appearing mainly as a giant bear.
- Dazh is the god of fire, the hearth, and hospitality. Apparently based on Svarog and Dažbog.
- Tor is the god of thunder and lightning, and a popular warrior god. Obviously related to the Norse god Thor.

“Then she journeyed back to her own house
and the gods of the world were shut in the lavatory.
At last!

“He serveth the servant,
The brave he loves amain;
He kills the cripple and the sick,
And straight begins again.
For gods delight in gods,
And thrust the weak aside;
To him who scorns their charities,
Their arms fly open wide.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
