I also liked those that Paksennarrion served in Elizabeth Moon's books including St. Gird (yeah, he's not actually a diety); I was actually rather moved at one point by one of the short stories set in that world.
Who are your favourite gods/deities in fiction... and why? What do you like about them?
My favourite remains the Valar written by Tolkein. I especially loved all their history and lore in the Silmarillion, as well as their different abilities, personalities and exploits against Morgoth. I also like how he wrote about the various Maia and what they all got up to.

Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

I'm definitely a fan of the Valar. Partial to the Dragonlance pantheon, too.

I'm afraid I have to take issue with you grouping the Endless among the gods.
