The gods of Krynn came from beyond out of chaos to forge the universe during the Age of
Starbirth, as told in the Tale of the Creation. The origin of the gods is unknown, although it is believed that they came from a different sphere of existence. All of the facts of the Age of Starbirth are now heavily obscured in myth and legend, especially since the Cataclysm, when knowledge of the true gods departed from Krynn.
All the information in this section was gleaned from the Disks of Mishakal, which
were found by the Innfellows in the ruins of Xak Tsaroth. If a person reads the Disks with
the proper devout attitude, he can become a true spell-using cleric. Clerics of Krynn wear a Medallion of Faith engraved with the symbol of the god they follow. These medallions have only one power—they magically duplicate themselves when a new cleric comes into
being. The new medallion bears the symbol of the god the new cleric follows—regardless of
what symbol was on the original. Only the gods themselves know their true
names, and certainly do not disclose them to mortals. The names given here were in common
use in the years following the great Dragonlance Wars in the different cultures on
the continent of Ansalon. The list is by no means complete.
There are twenty-one known gods of Krynn:
seven gods of Good, seven of Evil, and seven of Neutrality. All the known gods
are represented in the heavens. Six gods of Good and six gods of Evil make up the zodiac.
Six gods of Neutrality are represented by wandering stars (planets). The remaining three
gods—of White, Black, and Red magic-are represented by the three moons that orbit Krynn.

Many believe that the ancient hero Huma was actually Paladine in mortal form, when he
drove the dragons from the land during the Age of Dreams. Paladine’s constellation traditionally guards the Gate of Souls, keeping the dragons from returning to Krynn.

Aunque esta forma es su favorita, ocasionalmente ocupa avatares enormemente distintos.
Sacerdotes: Un sacerdote de Mishakal busca a aquellos que están enfermos y los cura.
