Landron: God of Order, Winds and the Seasons, Landron has fallen out of favor with the people of the Flanaess and now enjoys worship in only large centers of religion, such as Innspa. He is a lesser power and LN. (For more information regarding Landron, see "Quag Keep," by Andre Norton)
Om: A little known lesser power devoted to patterns and totality of action, the followers of Om preach a form of predestination in that all mortals enact the plans of the gods. Therefore, free will is not honored by this deity or his ascetic followers. In my campaign, Om is N. (For more, though not much more, see "Quag Keep")

Nice.
I once made a cleric of Dalt for a game, but it didn't end up happening. Or maybe I just lost touch with the DM.
I am a fan of adding demigods, godlings, deified heroes and saints, civic deities, etc to the setting.
There's some speculation in this thread about reconciling the plot of Rose Estes' novel Master Wolf with canon by treating the Iuz who serves as that book's antagonist (who is killed at the end of the novel) as one of the false Iuzes mentioned in the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer (which I think was probably the intent of that line in the LGG).
Here's a blog post detailing the World of Greyhawk as it was, more or less, when Andre Norton was writing Quag Keep. Some of the lands mentioned in that novel that don't exist in the modern Flanaess, such as the Duchy of Maritz, appear on that map.
There's been some discussion of the T.H. Lain novels over at the Piazza, under the New Koratia tag.

-If you want to retcon it, the Duchy of Maritz could be an old name for the Sea Barons (or part of it).
BTW, if you can find Jon Peterson's Playing at the World, read it. It actually rises to the level of serious academic research. Amazing.
