A covenant is a group of beings or divine entities worshipped as a singular collective. Unlike pantheons, which are formally defined by deities and can include those with differing personal beliefs working toward a shared goal, covenants are composed solely of entities who share the same outlook and can be formed by non-deific entities, including mortals.1

In addition to deities, some covenants include members as diverse as spirits, genies, elementals, proteans, fey, shadows, intelligent magic items, planes, battlefields, and potentially the Starstone itself. All such covenants can themselves be worshipped and confer powers such as divine magic and sanctification in manners similar to deities if their adherents follow their edicts and anathema.2
