Egyptian
Pantheon
The Egyptian Pantheon is one of the most famous in history, along
with the Greek and Roman Pantheons. The Egyptian Pantheon,
however, was in widespread use for a much longer period of time.
As such, this pantheon has a much more robust flavor about it. It
is much more appropriate to a fantasy campaign than the Greek and
Latin Pantheons due to the complex mysteries that surround it.
Listed here is the
pantheon as a whole. Research done by xylodawn@scientist.com. Note that this is not intended
to be an accurate portrayal of the Egyptian mythos - which is
much too vast to compile on a single page - but rather an
artist's conception of what the Egyptian mythos would be like in
a fantasy setting.
