Could someone tell me what supplement(s) contain information on the Specialty Priests of the Greyhawk gods?

Thank you.

From the Ashes is the main source.

A Dragon article called "Servents of the Seldarine" had info for specialty priests of the elven gods, including Lloth.

I would not be suprised if the other demi-human races received similar treatment in other Dragons.

Demihuman Dieties by Erik "Moondancer" Boyd included rules for specialty priests for just about all the demi-human powers, even obscure ones, ones arrived from FR, etc.

Iuz the Evil expands the Iuzian specialty priest rules given in FtA.

An excerpt from the book is at http://www.wzrd.com/home/thyle/Sehanine.htm

"From the Ashes" has already been mentioned.

"The Scarlet Brotherhood" has a complete list of the Suel deities in very good detail.

"Slavers" also has stats for priests of Kelanen and Murlynd.

You might also want to check out this link to the Greyhawk 2e forum:

http://www.canonfire.com/cf/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=29&sid=0d970e33c0e4162656be67b2fa826993

Most of the entries there are ones that I wrote long before a more comperehensive look was taken at the specialty priests of the various deities. They are not the same as any published source however so use them if you like, or not.

Thanks for the info guys and uh Andy also :)

Looks like it's off to ebay to search for From the Ashes. I have the other resources, so I should be covered there.
