'''Pharyd''' is a dead, forgotten or just really obscure demigoddess from the [[Nentir Vale]] setting of [[Dungeons & Dragons]]. She is part of that small contingent of deities who only get mentioned once in a single [[Dungeon Magazine]] adventure, like [[Refnara]], leaving fans to pick her up and run with her entirely of their own volition.

Appearing in the adventure "Blood of Gruumsh" in [[Dungeon Magazine]] #210, all we know of Pharyd is that she was born to an [[elf]] mother who was ravished by either [[Gruumsh]] or an [[orc]] champion of the One-Eyed God possessed by Gruumsh's spirit. After he was done, Gruumsh left Pharyd's mother in the hands of one of his champions... however, rather than killing her, this orc fell in love with her, and spirited the pregnant elf-maid away to safety, where she gave birth to an [[Tel-amhothlan|elf-orc]] demigoddess daughter. Pharyd attempted to heal the breach between orcs and elves, focusing on the fact that, in the [[World Axis]], the two races were originally one race, with Gruumsh and [[Corellon]] being twin brothers, but in the [[Nentir Vale]] canon, she died a martyr's death. The adventure revolves around the party finding the ruins of an ancient sect of Pharyd worshippers, a place where elves and orcs lived together in peace... until they were wiped out by followers of Corellon.

Aside from the fact that her holy book was known as "The Five Truths", this is all the canonical information we know about Pharyd. As with [[Kecuala]] or [[Refnara]], her statblock provided here is an estimation by 1d4chan.
