Encyclopedia entry

Ghaunadaur, god of fallen stars, slime, outcasts, and the discarded, is best known as a peripheral member of the drow pantheon.  However, he is also an ancient, pre-humanoid entity, thought to have emerged from the primordial ooze, or even to have born that ancient life  with him to this world from some forgotten home.  Most  slimes and oozes are mindless and unable to worship Ghaunadaur, but the deity is known and revered by shoggoths, from which its most powerful priests are drawn.
