The Primordials
Born of the early aetherial density of the universe, the Primordials are timeless ephemeral beings that took it upon themselves to form the aether into planets, stars and the denizens of the universe.

Werlythian Gods
The gods of Werlyth were uplifted from their respective races by Ord when they achieved some aspect of the ideal that Ord set upon that race. The Cleansing happened before Ord could do the same for humans and being so cut off from the aether of the universe and any other aspects humans put all their worship into Ord, except for some minor cults which the Ordian Church spent many resources on suppressing and persecuting. Orcish and Dwarven gods also cover Hobgoblins, Gobins and Halflings, Gnomes respectively.

The Minor Gods of Werlyth
With the rise of Aether within Werlyth, the fervent prayers of true believers have resulted in the manifestation of many minor gods, these gods were usually worshipped alongside the gods that Ord created by uplifting paragons. Now that these gods have been given substance they have been able to begin providing their worshippers with their power. While some of the uplifted gods have accepted these new comers into their domain, there are tensions between the new gods and the uplifted. Ord has not deigned to step in to these disputes and nobody is sure if Ord is just watching, or has already left to other pursuits. Half-Orcs and Half-Elves are followers of their primary parent races minor gods and have not manifested any minor gods of their own, Eladrin worship nature itself as a concept in general though Eladrin clerics have typically been inducted into other religions.

The Cults of Werlyth
The power of belief is very strong and with The Cataclysm (and the The Return for other races), cults that were previously quite powerless have managed to manifest their own minor deities which grant their most fervent followers with some small measure of power.
Humans have dozens of pagan minor gods covering most minor aspects, most are not kept track of and fall in and out of use regularly. Prior to the Cataclysm, these cults were actively hunted down and persecuted under Ordian law but with the loss of the church's absolute grip on religiosity in the 75 years since the catastrophe, many major and minor religions have established churches in most major towns and capitals, they've also managed to usurp some cults that worshipped similar concepts. Some major cults that have managed to gain some prominence (and not just amongst humans) are listed below
