My DM was thinking of including an actual avatar of Vhaeraun in our campaign, but myself and the other players didn't think it to be probable. True, Vhaeraun frequently dispatches his Avatar to answer a summoning ritual performed by his clergy, but we are only around levels 12-14, and though this could be considered somewhat high, I don't believe that we should be graced by the presence of a deity. |

*Ahem* Correction: A DROW Shade, who worships Vhaeraun..... |

Well then, that presents an alternate case, and one that you could build upon to bring any 'Shadow'-type deities into your campaign. Although, the Shades have never had much need for deities outside of the regular and necessary worship of arcane magic deities...

Actually, I, as a shade, have repeatedly visited the Plane of Shadow....... |

The Bookwyrm has a point. Unless your party is heavily involved in planar travel (where they may come to the notice of deities, to be used as pawns for their games of celestial chess), I don't think deities should have much more impact upon the general Realms than they do now...and even that is a little too much sometimes.
There may be times when deity exposure is necessary, and their stats, or those of their avatars need to be included, but if the adventure doesn't leave the Material Plane at least once, then it's probably not a good idea.

Thanks, Bookwyrm, but we already agreed not to feature him. Alaundo, this topic is free for deletion. |

Personally, I don't like the idea of any party coming to a deity's notice, unless that group has seriously irritated or pleased him/her. I especially don't like the idea of a campaign that requires stats for a god's avatar.  The gods play into the Realms too much as it is, I think. |

Oh, many apologies....... The stats have been taken out. Only the question remains..... |

These aren't his 'official' avatar stats are they Shadowlord, because I don't think it's really appropriate for you to be posting them here with the author's consent.
If they are, I would suggest you contact Alaundo for confirmation on what I just said...
