Deities marked with an asterisk have not AFAIK, been published with their runes listed. However, these are deities that I feel are likely to possess the Life rune. The list is certainly not complete, and some guesses may well be wrong. I have excluded deities which, AFAIK, are no longer worshipped in significant numbers (there's a whole bunch of Dara Happan/Pelandan possibilities there).
A number of the Hsunchen deities probably hold the Life rune, as will many eastern deities about which we know relatively little. Also, many of the gods listed have very similar counterparts elsewhere (who may or may not be the same deity). For instance, Somash and Kargzant may both hold the Life rune, since they are solar deities like Yelm (or they may not ;-)).
It's interesting to note that the Grain Goddesses *don't* hold the Life rune - or at least, many of them don't according to the Cults Book in GoG.
Forward the glorious Red Army!
