are we including up through deities and demigods and what not? if so, that list will wind up including the elder elemental princes and dragons plus the entire ex-council of eight and a few others. =D

Greyhawk was created prior to any distinction between normal and epic characters. A few (Mordenkainen, Eclavdra) are mentioned in the Epic Level Handbook. And the LGG says that Rary and the Mage of the Valley are both lvl 20+.

As mentioned, there are tons of semi divine characters running around that might or might not qualify for what you mean. Most of these... and quite a few others with even less justification... have been turned into godlings in later material.

But I'd argue that the "quasi-deities" of 1e should have been treated as the equivalent of Epic Level characters, not promoted to full godhood. So Murlynd, Heward, Keoghtom, and that ilk are who I would have named.

Duicathon has a thread on this board:

Some of the characters on there are higher level than in official sources, in order to bring them into an Epic Campaign. But it is a great starting list.
