The Old Gods of the Forest are worshiped mainly in the North, while the Drowned God is followed by the ironborn of the Iron Islands.

The Lord of Light has few followers in Westeros but a significant presence in Essos. The Many-Faced God is worshiped by the Faceless Men assassins, and the Ghiscari religion influences Slaver's Bay.

These religions play a pivotal role in the events of "Game of Thrones," from starting wars to influencing characters' actions.
