A wide variety of gods have moved in and out of power over the many millennia since Sanctuary was form. The most powerful gods are those who's statues sit on the Arcanum Crystals at the five kingdom capitals. This page describes those gods, their related divinities, and those gods currently worshiped by the Noble Houses. As noble houses come and go, this page will need to be updated.

- Io, occasionally known as Asgorath or Asgoroth
- A neutral primordial over-deity, father to dragon gods and is worshipped across many a world by other names. An entity of seemingly conflicting motivations and alignments, known for doing either very little or a whole lot depending on the incarnation. Anyone who views dragons with awe or wishes to imitate them can turn to Io for guidance and strength.
- Although Dragons in their own right, Jormungandr and Ancalagon who form the world here are viewed by many of the Children to just be another pair of Primoridal children of Io.

- Manea
- Goddess of the undead, ghosts, and other spirits of the night

- Odin and Fenrir
- The Valdrdómr worship Odin and Fenrir above all else. An interesting combination considering both Gods have been shown to be in opposition. Like Odin, the Valdrdómr seek knowledge—in particular why they have been chosen to inhabit this new world—and are determined to gain it by any means necessary. They also show devotion to Fenrir, who is often depicted as a monstrous wolf, because while knowledge is valued and sought, those of the Valdrdómr recognize something primal and reckless (that often cannot be ignored), lives within all men and women. Additionally, they often compare themselves to the great wolves Odin has; Geri (the greedy one), and Freki (the ravenous one), since they are both greedy and ravenous for glory.
