In Ravenloft, Manannan mac Lir is worshipped only in the domain of Tepest. Here, he's the brother of Brigantia, and one of the more commonly worshipped gods in the domain. He still retains dominion over water-dwelling creatures, but is known as the god of rivers and lakes instead of oceans, since Tepest is located inland.
