It is said that The Old Lords were leaders of tribes that survived the God Wars, who banded together in the early years to give their tribes a better chance to survive - and they were once among the most powerful of the New Gods. However, over time, others have grown and surpassed them and the Old Lords, with their 'country', perspective have drifted towards the periphery. The Old Lords promote the 'simple way' - villages are better than towns or cities, that compromise is good and that trade between self-sufficient villages is the way to retain both peace and dignity.

It is said that there were more of them, although only four are really remembered tody.

• Ogma – The Champion and Warlord. Patron of Chieftains and warriors.
• Cernunnos – Master of the Land. Patron of Hunters, Trappers and Woodsmen.
• Lugus – Master of Trade. Patron of Travellers and Merchants.
• Brigh - Mistress of Skills. Patron of Crafters and Makers.
