Angadar began his deific career as the god of Arcane Knowledge. Arcane knowledge is defined as any facts pertaining to magic spells, artifacts, items, people, places, deities, and similar things. Casual followers of Angadar once sought his knowledge for a number of reasons ranging from helpful to odious. However, the more serious followers of Angadar believed that Arcane Knowledge, as Angadar saw it, was to be used as a weapon. "He who dies with the most knowledge does not die," was the general motto of Angadar's faithful.
Not too long before the beginning of the Second Fairy War, Angadar was involved with the death of the goddess Tianna, lover of Valok and former goddess of Deceit and Trickery. He was able to assume her mantle as a product of her death circumstances, and although Tianna's followers did not believe it at first, assuming it to be another of her tricks, they eventually warmed up to Angadar.
Angadar created the race of Drangonari Elves as his own by corrupting the Avariel, and he remains strongly associated with them.
Angadar was the patron of all those who seek power through gaining knowledge of magic and other arcane facts. As a mortal, Angadar worked very hard to amass as much power and magic as he could in order to advance himself. Becoming the most powerful spellcaster in history was always his goal. When he was master of Arcane Knowledge, Deceit, and Trickery, he was constantly seeking new means to extend his influence among gods and mortals, be they wizards or not.
Angadar was a psion when he was a mortal. In 2261 O.D. through consuming the corpse of Auppenser, Angadar gained control of Psionics in Avlis and added it to his portfolio.
In 2 A.R., during an event now known as "The Humbling of Angadar", Angadar was stripped of the mantles of Deceit, Trickery, and Arcane Knowledge by the gods Ethraeli, Stephanus, and Andria respectively, aided and abetted by a group of mortal agents. Since then, Stephanus has gained uncontested theocratic control over Grantir, and Angadar's holy places in Grantir have been destroyed, vandalized and desecrated.
