In the August 1982 issue of ''Dragon'', Gygax gave advice on how to adapt deities from the previously published ''[[Deities and Demigods]]''<ref>{{Cite book | last1 = Ward | first1 = James M. | author-link = Jim Ward (game designer) | last2 = Kuntz | first2 = Robert J. | author2-link = Robert J.

In addition to his original Greyhawk deities, St. Cuthbert and Pholtus, Gygax added seventeen more deities. Although later versions of the campaign setting would assign most of these deities to worship by specific races of humans, at this time they were generally worshiped by all humans of the Flanaess.

Shortly after the release of the folio edition, TSR released the adventure module C1 ''The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan'', designed to familiarize players with the [[Olman]] race of the [[Amedio Jungle]]. Largely based on [[Aztec]] and [[Incan]] cultures, this adventure introduced the first published deities of the Greyhawk campaign: [[Mictlantecuhtli]], god of death, darkness, murder and the underworld; [[Tezcatlipoca]], god of sun, moon, night, scheming, betrayals and lightning; and [[Quetzalcoatl]], god of air, birds and snakes. This area was further explored in ''[[The Scarlet Brotherhood]]'' (1999), which expanded the Olman pantheon, and newly introduced the [[Touv]] people, including their nine gods.
