Fharlanghn, god of horizons, distance, travel, and roads, is a well-known deity on the world of Oerth. He wanders that world in person, his petitioners present in spirit form at crossroads and in mysterious oases.
Relations
Fharlanghn is the lover of Atroa, goddess of the east wind. He is allied with Atroa, Celestian, Lydia, Brandobaris, Keoghtom, Charmalaine (whose apotheosis he co-sponsored), Murlynd, Olidammara, Heward, and Aasterinian. Fharlanghn's brother Celestian, who is popular among planewalkers, is attempting to spread knowledge of Fharlanghn on the planes as well, though (as there are precious few horizons on planes other than the Prime Material) this is slow going.
Clergy and temples
Roadside shrines to Fharlanghn can be found throughout the Flanaess. Many cities, villages, and towns, including Greyhawk, have churches to the Dweller on the Horizon.
