With all the talk of the upcoming pruning of the deity lists, I got to thinking about how many deities have been used/presented/mentioned in various FR/D&D video games.

I'll list the ones I can remember being mentioned in the Baldur's Gate series, as that is the game I am the most familiar with. Feel free to add to my list if I miss anything, or list deities mentioned in other games

Baldur's Gate Series

Ao
Bane
Cyric
Lathander
Mystra
Oghma
Shar
Silvanus
Sune
Talos
Tempus
Tyr

Selûne
Tymora
Umberlee
Auril
Lliira
Mask
Talona
Tiamat
Torm
Waukeen
Jergal
Eilistraee
Ghaunadaur
Vhaeraun
Clanggedin Silverbeard
Moradin
Aerdrie Faenya

the other ones look good.

Demogorgon is a lesser power of the evil ixitxachitl rays in second edition. An avatar of his is trapped in watcher's keep by Helm, preventing him from manifesting additional avatars on the Prime Material Plane.

And yes, Vecna may not be a god at the time of the game, so that would scratch him off the list.

Another one to add Cyrrollalee. There may also be a reference or two to Dragonlance deities, but I can't recall which one.

The PC can get items of Vecna (like the robe of Venca) in BG2. But back then, he wasn't a deity.

Where is Vecna mentioned? I can't remember seeing his name in the BG games. Also is Demogorgon a deity? I'm pretty sure Velsharoon is mentioned in ether the BG games or at least in the NWN games. Red Knight in IWD II.

Kelemvor--there's a monument to him in BG2.
