Basically when I say dieties of the past I mean all of them not just the 9 that we have now. Then with those dieties past objectives including the ones we have now we can maybe see what's happening. I'm looking for lore behind them concerning what their motives were and what it is they wanted to do.
"I suppose you could ultimately say that each deity strives to nurture and exapand their influence in Norrath as much as possible, and they usually do so through their mortal followers. That said, some deities also seem content with the standings of their followers, and don't seem to be actively trying to take over the world.."
Inny I would say fits the very deffinition of expanding their influence since he corrupted the High Elves into Dark Elves. Then you had the Fae corrupted into the Arasai.
As for the last part for some reason it reminds me of Quellious where she maybe content with those that choose to follow her. Same could be said with Tunare, but i'm unsure of that one.
The deities that make up the Wheel of Influence are really only concerned with spreading their influence, thereby gaining more followers and thus power. While they may have their own little plots here and there, in the end everything they do serves their own ends as a means to gain more influence amongst the population of Norrath. That is really the only objective they have, or have ever had.
