Helm is the Lawful Neutral (bordering on Lawful Stupid) God of Watchmen, Guardians, Soldiers, Duty and Loyalty in the Forgotten Realms setting of Dungeons & Dragons.

Helm sits in that unfortunate place where he's most known for being either really boring or for being a huge dickhead.

History

During the Time of Troubles, he succeeded in not getting thrown out of the heavens by Ao simply because everyone knew that there was no way he could have been the one to steal the Tablets of Fate, after which he was assigned the role of guarding the doorways back and keeping the other gods from returning. In his heavy-handed zeal, when Mystra tried to order him to let her pass, he struck her dead, permanently damaging the Weave and creating the existence of wild magic and dead magic zones all over Faerun. During 3rd edition, such places were often referred to as "Helmlands", a huge blot on Helm's record and one that his worshippers never quite got over.

Further compounding this is the infamous Maztica disaster, where a bunch of Helm-worshippers discovered Faerun's South America expy and proceeded to turn into a band of psychos, committing acts of brutality, mass slavery, and attempted cultural and literal genocide. Even though he hadn't told them to do this, Helm's reputation was absolutely shot after news of this got back to the Sword Coast, to the point he had to found an entire new Paladin order to try and atone for the damage done and save his reputation.
