Shar is one of those Greater powers that is interesting. Given that we live in an Electric Universe, night is regarded as the shadow of Toril. However, if Toril was created the same way as Earth was, Toril would have been bathed with light in the plasma of a Red Dwarf star (like Earth was). Shar is still a Greater power, as recounted in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting (1e) and subsequent campaign settings. Shar represents the dark shadow of Toril. And is a feared deity.

Keep in mind, calling Shar the Dark Maiden may cause mortals to confuse her with Eilistraee, who is a VERY different deity.

I might do Eilistraee next, though. Thanks for the heads up!
