Any idea where to find it? I had wondered which deities he meant when he wrote that Gilgeam kicked out the remaining gods except Ishtar and Ramman. P&P and OE neither ever mentioned names.
I personally wouldn't make druaga a god. They did in the 1e deities and demigods, but I'd personally make him some kind of powerful demon with possessing ability based upon what I read of him in that resource (and there weren't such possibilities way back then). Hell, I can barely find anything on the guy outside of D&D references. Almost like he isn't even common in the mythology. |

Any idea where to find that source I asked about - Ancient Gods: 'Forgotten Deities' and the Old Empires ? |

It's mine and its 2E homebrew from way back when in the listserv days. It's also why Eric dubbed me Marduk in the credits to Demihuman Deities. It included info on Bahamut, Entropy, Gilgeam, Ptah, Ramman, and a little on Apshai, Bes, and Anubis. It is mostly canon (of the time) with some minor inferences, but would need some updating to match up with 3.5E through 5E (especially Entropy). I'm happy to share with anyone interested. Just email me at THOMASC148@aol.com with your email address.
I had also started a similar file on Elven interloper gods, Celestian, goblinoid interloper gods, a new bunch of young gods (all made up from whole cloth), other dwarven gods, which I'm also happy to share (though some are more complete than others).
