| Are you only interested in Faerun? I've done tons of stuff related to this for Zakhara on the wiki. |

The only Faerunian god mentioned as being worshipped in Kara-Tur was Chauntea after a group of westerners brought it east.
Her faith on the island of Wa brought about the Juzimura Rebellion which was brutally put down by the shogunate. Worship of Chauntea (or Chantea as she became known by there) was declared illegal, punishable by death, and what was left of the faith had to go underground in that nation. Other countries tended to distrust worshippers of Chauntea, basically because they didn't fit the Kara-Turan schema of what is considered normal. |

Interesting. Must have been a peasant/farmer rebellion…. since Chauntea is primarily an agricultural deity. |

| I came across this in the Candlekeep library and I have to say that it is a great resource although I don't believe it to be complete just yet; http://www.candlekeep.com/library/articles/temples.htm |
