Large temple complex in Dref Dral claiming to have worship facilities for all gods known on the Prime Material Plane. By city law, all religious institutions in the city must be in this complex, or are illegal.

In charge of the Temple is Horwin Draemarx, who heads a large staff of sub-priests, who run the various temples located within the Temple's sprawling courtyards, amid gardens, magically recorded and always-playing harp music, and illusory celestial/fiendish birds.

When one approaches the complex's outer wall and golden gate, a recorded voice welcomes you to "salvation". Inside the lobby building, a large waiting room holds those waiting their turn to go through various doors that lead to walkways, along which are built the small temples of each god. One tells the clerk behind the big marble counter which god you want, pay a tithe, and are directed to the right door, all to the sound of harp music.

Little known to the public, at the heart of the Temple, in a deep underground cavern, is the Font of Light, a source of direct divine energy that alternates between good, evil, and neutral in nature unpredictably. The Temple was built around and over it, centuries ago, and it is the reason why so many gods can be connected to here. It appears as a massive ball of light, ever-changing in color, and is guarded by paladins from several different religions.

Among the sub-priests who formerly worked at the Temple are Byuhm Dreban and Cinda Tregor. Jeela Aestrea works there currently.
