'''The Daghdha''', or '''Dagda''' as he's called in [[Deities and Demigods]], is the leader of the Celtic pantheon and the oldest child of the [[god]]dess Danu.

==Personality==
The Dozen King is a trickster and generally happy-go-lucky. He enjoys being comical, but can become stern when needed. He keeps watch over both the Celtic people as well the gods and their followers, regardless of their [[alignment]], and will act to protect their well-being.

==Priesthood==
The Daghdha's priests are all [[druid]]s, who dress in an unusual manner to draw attention to themselves but generally kept to themselves, gathering in large numbers only when important ceremonies are held. Their main duty is the creation of new standing stones with which to track the seasons and exercise their magical powers.

Mechanics-wise, The Daghdha's speciality priests are the same as druids in [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons#AD&D 2nd Edition|2nd edition]], having the same prerequisites and restrictions, but gain the ability to accurately predict the weather one week in advance at 1st level, and at 8th level the ability to cast ''Heroes Feast'' once per day.

Daghda is worshipped differently depending on where exactly you are.

In the realm of Forlorn, Daghda is the god of fertility and the chieftain of the gods, and is one of the two gods the druids worship. He's often associated with the oak faction, who believe that balnce can be restored to the land by bringing in more good-aligned creatures.

In the realm of Tepest, Daghda is the god<u>dess</u> of fertility, the mistress of untamed wilderness, consort to the god [[Lugh]], and one of three creators of the [[fey]]. Daghda is seen as being a dark and simple-minded reflection of [[Brigantia]], though not an evil one, merely a misguided one.
