O Lord of the Continuum, I have a question for thee. In your opinion, was Corellon an Overgod proper? As this is still a hotly debated topic amongst theologians, I'd adore to know your uniquely qualified thoughts on the matter.

Hiya Gale! What a nostalgic greeting Short answer: Corellon was, in fact, an Overgod.

Long answer: Corellon's sphere was obviously the Seldarine, since he isn't exactly quiet about being the father of Elvenkind. From what I can remember, before the Time of Troubles, Corellon was one of the only known Overgods (by mortal scholars, I mean). However, when Lord Ao cast most of us out of our domains, Ao became well known as the Overgod due to the panic among commonfolk. This caused the definition of Overgod to shift a bit, and since most people have a hard time comprehending that both Ao and (comparatively) lame Corellon could be in the same rank, it called into question whether the definition of Overgod fit Corellon, as with many other Overgods like Asgorath and the Lady of Pain. I had honestly thought that the misconception got cleared up within a few years, but we all know I wasn't one to care either way. Very interesting.....

As Corellon's platonic side hoe overgod nepo baby closest ally, I was often let in on the doings of the Overgods, to which I remember him often being criticized for being boisterous. So, pretty ironic that the loudest of the Overgods is the one being debated on by theologists. I do specifically remember that Corellon was pressured into making me his vice (stand-in incase he up and dies so the fellowship doesn't shatter) since I fit the aloof personality of the Overgods much more LMAO.

Thank you for this! I'm always a bit sad that I missed so many years of history among the non-elves, so getting let in on what scholars were thinking is always exhilarating.
