Lathander is/was the main god of the Sun in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting. While he is one of the most significant gods of the setting, his status is in a bit of uncertainty. He is probably the reborn aspect of a much older god of the Sun: Amaunator (see below) but unusually for divine aspects, the two deities have quite varied goals and portfolios.

Lathander is probably also Pelor from the core setting, though probably a younger, more handsome version of Pelor.
