This article is incomplete and will require additional work.

The Petrenean Pantheon is a catch-all collection for the cults and churches of various dieties revered by the Petreneans and other people in the Shimmering Shores. As a great many of these dieties are believed to be Ascended or Awakened former mortals, most of these beliefs are also married to a form of ancestor worship, of which recognition of the diety themselves is often an extension. Unlike the case with many of the other pantheons, it is not always a given that follower of one god within the Petrenean Pantheon recognizes the divinity of all the other gods in the same pantheon.

The Pantheon does not have a truly unified teaching on life or death, though the traditional theme is that death is followed by a period of existence in the Bardo, followed by complete or partial reincarnation, a cycle which may or may not be escapable - the Awakened One, for example, teaches that one can reach a similar state to their own, eschewing the cycle of mortality in the process.
