Midkemia
The Higher Gods are connected with the basic matter of the world. They show no interest in the conduct of man. Prayers aren't heard, an answer is not forthcoming. From the four Higher Gods that remained we know: Abram-Sev, the giver of laws, the thunderer; Ev-Dem, the worker from within, the calculator of chances; Graf, the weaver of wishes; and Helbinor, He Who Abstaines. The other three were Ishap, The One Above All; Arch-Indar, the goddess of good and Nalar, the destroyer.
Prayers are made to the Lower Gods. They can be described as forces of nature who are prepared to interact with man. They have a soul and a consciousness, and the more people pray to them, the more powerful they become. That's why supposedly 'dead' gods can return. The Lower Gods who have dealings with Midkemia are divided into three categories:
- The orderly gods:
- Silban: the mother of the earth, the bringer of crops, the dreamless sleeper
- Sung the White: the follower of one path
- Ka-hooli: the beater of refugees, the indefatigable pursuer, the wargod of revenge, the tracer of the truth behind mysteries
- Astalon: the righteous, the builder
- The neutral gods:
- Ban-ath: the cunning evader, the teaser, the walker through the night, the silent thief of valuable merchandise
- Kilian: the singer of green silences, the collector of sweet pleasures, the goddess of love
- Tith-Onanka: the wargod, the tactician, the fortunate warrior
- Dala: the shield of the weak, the goddess of passive strength, the patroness
- The chaotic gods:
- Ruthia: she who dances through the hearts of men, the goddess of unreturned love, the lady of fortune
- Guis-wa: the howler under the moon, the hunter with the red jaw, the lover of forbidden knowledge, the one who desires everything
- Prandur: the burner of cities, the spreader of confusion, the bringer of light
- Lims-Kragma: the stretcher of snares, the mistress of death
Besides these gods there's made a mention of four 'disappeared' gods, among them Sarig, the god of magic. These four will return sometime.

Supernatural
Many deities have appeared in Supernatural, and some other characters have been deified, such as Lucifer. The angel Castiel also became a deity when absorbing the souls of monsters from Purgatory. The gods in the show include:
- God, the main deity, known just as "God", is the unseen controller of the show's events and the Jewish-Christian god
- Death is an entity of equal rank to God
- Eve, a creature who spawned every monster in existence, making her "the Mother" "of All" (Monsters)

- Prometheus
- Artemis, the god of hunters

Charmed
- The Angel of Death - A being who supervises the transition from death to the afterlife
- Angels of Destiny - Beings who supervise the destinies of all and protectors of the "Grand Design"
- The Avatars - Beings with tremendous power, they exist outside of time and space
- Barbas - The Demon Of Fear
- Cole Turner - Once a high level half-demon, he became The Source of All Evil, then turned indestructable with a multitude of powers and then an Avatar with infinite powers. After he was finally vanquished, he was sent to "the Void between life and death" as punishment for all his past evil deeds.

Greek deities, Hindu deities, and many other mythological beings have been adapted into the Charmed version of them. One example of this would be; thousands of years before the main storyline, the Titans once ruled the world, but were abusive of their powers. Seeking to entomb them, the Elders of that time created the Greek gods by infusing mortals with a mystical power beyond their own. Ironically, the self-declared Gods of Mount Olympus would later force the world to worship them too for many years.
Doctor Who
British sci-fi drama Doctor Who's setting has featured many god-like beings, with rational explanations for their presence. Earlier seasons presented the White Guardian and Black Guardian, personified forces of the universe. There was also the Mara, an evil entity which occupied "the dark places of the inside (or mind)", during the Fifth Doctor era. The first story that featured the Mara, entitled Kinda, contained elements of animistic tribal beliefs, whereas the second story, Snakedance, contained elements of Buddhist belief. The new series features the demonic, Devil-like adversary "The Beast" and its son Abaddon. References have also been made to a Kaled god of war and various other deities inspired by the Beast. In the far-flung future, the feline humanoids called The Sisters of Plenitude worship a Goddess of Antori, although it's clear that some elements of Christianity, such as its hymns, still exist in this era.

RuneQuest
The world of RuneQuest, created by Greg Stafford, was one of the first to bring myths, cults and religions to become major plot themes, rather than plot devices, in a fantasy setting. It is also very diverse in that it features 13 main pantheons and "arrays" of deities, and numbers some 250 single or small groups of divine aspects.
Gothic
- Innos, god of fire, light and life. Worshipped by the people of Myrthana and Nordmar, fire mages and paladins. Controls the dominance magic. King of Myrthana Rhobar II is the highest representative of Innos among men.
- Beliar, god of darkness and death. Worshipped in Varant and by the orcs, dark mages, orc shamans and Hashishin priests. Controls the summoning magic. King of Varant, Zuben is the highest representative of Beliar.
- Adanos, god of neutrality and balance. Worshipped by the water mages, druides and nomads. Controls the transformation magic. In the neverending battle between good and evil, between Innos and Beliar, Adanos mission is to maintain balance between both sides, never letting any side win. A small group of water mages led by Saturas and supported by 'Ring of Water' fighters is representing Adanos.
- Sleeper, also called Krushak by the orcs, is an evil demon associated with Beliar and seeping its power from the magic ore deposits of Khorinis. He was sealed in an underground temple hundreds of years ago, but managed to obtain mental control over many people, most prominently the ones to form the Swamp Camp sect. Banished by the hero in Gothic 1.
Guild Wars
- Balthazar, God of War and Fire.
- Grenth, God of Death and Ice.
- Dwayna, Goddess of Life and Air.
- Lyssa, Goddess of Beauty and Illusion.
- Melandru, Goddess of Nature and Earth.
- Kormir, Goddess of Truth.
- Abaddon, Former God of Knowledge and Water, God of Secrets.
- Dhuum, Former God of Death.
- Menzies, Lord of Destruction, half-brother of Balthazar.
- The Great Dwarf, Patron God of Dwarves
- The Great Destroyer, Nemesis of the Great Dwarf
Legacy of Kain
- The Elder God - The main antagonist of the Legacy of Kain series. Immortal, omnipresent and omniscient this ancient being claims to be the power behind the "Wheel of Fate"; a cycle of birth, death and rebirth.
- The Ancient Vampires - were one of the two dominating races of Nosgoth. A race of blue-skinned, cloven hand & footed, winged humanoids; they've been described as "god-like" and were the creators of the Pillars of Nosgoth. It was their sworn enemies the Hylden who cursed them into becoming the world's first blood-drinking Vampires. Janos Audron is the last survivor their race.
- The Hylden - were one of the dominating races of Nosgoth and sworn enemies of the Ancient Vampires who had banished them to a Demon Dimension. They've been described as similar to the Ancient Vampires in power but "different in method and intent". Their stay within the Demon realm not only granted the Hylden immortality, it also warped theirs minds and deformed their bodies. Their most common appearance is that of pale-skinned humanoids with green-flaming eyes and head; along with various deformities. Although they can use magic, the Hylden are usually depicted using their own highly advanced technology; preferring machinery over sorcery.
- Kain - as the Scion of Balance Kain is the only being capable of harming the Elder God. After having gained and evolved numerous powers and abilities over the centuries, as well as adding that with his role as Balance guardian, which provides all the magic that the position grants; Kain is one of the most powerful beings in Nosgoth; having far surpassed the power of any ordinary Vampire.
- Raziel - is a wraith; champion to the Hylden & Vampire races and destined to be the spirit of the Soul Reaver sword. His ability of Free Will makes him completely unpredictable by all beings who can observe time; even the Elder God can't see or anticipate what his next move will be. His other ability makes him virtually indestructible/ immortal and keeps him from returning to the cycle of the Wheel of Fate. Nosgoths destiny hangs largely on the choices Raziel makes, constantly making him the focus of most, if not all of the forces around him.
- The Pillars of Nosgoth - are a manifestation of the elements that preserved and gave life to the world. A semi-sentient edifice towering high into the Earth's atmosphere and deep into the ground; it consists of nine mystical columns of white marble, each representing a different function; Mind, Nature, Energy, States, Time, Dimension, Conflict, Death and Balance; which binds them all together. Selecting nine random beings from birth, the Pillars empower each individual with magical abilities related to the element of the Pillar they will serve and protect.
The Legend of Zelda
Various characters are described as gods or deities in The Legend of Zelda series. While the three primary gods of Hyrule are its three creator goddesses (Din, Farore and Nayru) as worshipped by Hylians, Dekus, Gorons and Zoras alike, there are other guardian spirits on Earth such as The Great Deku Tree, Lord Jabu-Jabu (or Jabun) and Valoo who act in a divine, planetary guardian role and are worshiped as deities. Operating in a similar protective role of the planet are the Light Spirits, Ordona, Faron, Eldin, and Lanayru. Other characters such as Zephos and Cyclos, while clearly demonstrating godlike abilities, have not had their place in the pantheon of Hylian gods and spirits clearly established. The major gods are channeled through various sages and oracles, the oracles carrying names in likeness of their gods. Separate from the rest of the species and races of Hyrule, the Gerudo worship a fourth sand goddess, although it is unclear whether or not she actually exists.
Alternate worlds such as Termina seem to carry their own pantheon of gods, such as its creator gods, The Four Giants and "The Fierce Deity". Foreign lands seem to also have gods or spirits protecting them separately, such as the Maku Tree of Labrynna and Maku Tree of Holodrum. The Wind Fish is another deity of power enough to create an entire living world within his sleeping mind. In addition to these, several central villains of the series who did not start life as gods have either achieved the status, power or at least belief in themselves as such later in their character histories, including Ganondorf, Vaati and Majora.
