In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, Wastri is the Suloise god of Amphibians, Bigotry, and Self-Deception.

Wastri is said to dwell deep in the Vast Swamp, where he is served by bullywugs and corrupt humans.

[edit] Worshippers

Wastri's faith is based from his lair in the Vast Swamp, though his followers have been found as far as the Hool Marshes, and even in Greyhawk City.

[edit] History

Wastri is rumored to have once been a mortal human, a member of the Scarlet Brotherhood who became overly powerful and corrupt. In 505 CY, he was captured and imprisoned beneath Castle Greyhawk by the mad archmage, Zagig Yragerne, and did not escape until decades later.
