Lord Ao (AY-oh) is the Overgod of the world of Abeir-Toril. As Overgod, all deities and primordials of Toril, even those who also operated in other spheres and planes such as Lolth, were subject to him. To be more precise, only aspects of gods directly connected with Abeir-Toril, were under Ao's power. Otherwise extra-planar deities were unaffected. If it were not for Ao's involvement in the Time of Troubles, he would most likely be forgotten by the mortals of Faerûn. Ao did not want to be known, for cults once dedicated to him only a decade ago began to die out, and Ao's name disappeared from written records.

Clergy and Temples

The cult of Ao was led by ministers instead of clerics, since these cultists never received any spells from the Overgod. His followers are likely considered "faithless".
