Oct 27, 2022 · Demonlords have statts in DnD like Orkus. A lesser Deity would be Tiamat and a Greater Deity are only a handfull of the strongest gods out there. But that is my Interpretation of things and i build my world with the concept that every god is just a very powerfull being and everybody can kill/become a god if they are powerfull enough.
