This is the second god that I’ve done for the book I have been working on. It’s basically about adding Piety Scores (basically perks for worshipping a particular god) to Forgotten Realms Gods. Amaunator was a tough god to follow because of his demise and mysterious resurrection and attachment to Lathandar.
Amaunator appeared as a lanky man with silver-white hair, a short, tenday growth of white beard, and skin that glowed constantly with a quiet golden radiance. He carried a scepter in one hand and a large legal tome in the other, and wore the dress of a magistrate: a long, flowing, black or purple gown trimmed in silver or gold.
Amaunator’s Other Manifestations
Amaunator often appeared as a glowing woman dressed in a flowing opalescent dress bearing a balance of the purest gold—an almost translucent gold. It was said that if the scales tipped toward the right, the one seeing the apparition had met with disfavor. She or he could expect to lose of all profits and to bear the weight of seven years of poverty, debt, and servitude. If the balance tipped to the left, the viewer had met with favor. She or he could expect rewards and contractual pledges to fill his or her pockets with the profits of the world. Those who saw an apparition with perfectly balanced scales were said to be met with the greatest of favor: to be invited to join Amaunator’s priesthood. The clergy were probably notified by Amaunator himself of such favored folk since they always approached such people within a tenday to take them to Amaunator’s temple in Unity (now long dust) for rigorous study and instruction.Amaunator brought revenge to those who deserved it, righted wrongs, punished the wicked, and avenged those who could not avenge themselves. He did this by sending a group of 13 giant hyenas with maximum hit points that appeared from thin air to rip and tear at the flesh of the condemned until his or her body was spread over an acre of land.Amaunator sometimes acted or showed his favor or disfavor through emerald dragons, sapphire dragons, steel dragons, golems, takos, birds of prey (especially sunfalcons), sunflowers, yellow-eyed daisies, golden lilies, topazes, fire-colored or red gemstones of all sorts, tan dogs, cream-colored cats, pure white wolves, and white stallions.
Amaunator’s Divine Realm
Amaunator’s divine realm, the Keep of the Eternal Sun used to be on Mechanus. He lost, with the fall of Netheril enough followers, to die of neglect. His death robbed his ability to maintain his divine realm and his corpse was ejected to the Astral Plane. Once he came back to life, he created the astral dominion Eternal Sun and lived there with Siamorphe and Waukeen.

Amaunator’s Major Center of Worship
Unity, a sizable Netherese enclave, was the home of the largest temple to Amaunator, the Forested Enclave of the Face on the Sun. The steeple of this monstrous three-story pentagonal, hemispherically roofed building thrust 17 stories above the landscape, allowing the solar disk of Amaunator to be seen far above the surrounding trees.
Amaunator’s Followers Garb
Priests of Amaunator dressed in bright, long- sleeved, ornate robes of yellow, red, and orange that were covered with sewn-on arcane symbols for the sun or depicted the sun through embroi- dery, artful dying, or gold decorations and gemstone encrustations placed to form a sun face.
Amaunator’s Adventurers Garb
Adventuring clerics usually wore utilitarian garb, but preferred reds and oranges for cloaks, tabards, and accessories that were not part of their armor. When possible, they wore armor that had been washed or plated with gold.
