* ''[[Discworld]]''
** The Lady, the personification of luck, abandons all people who call on her by name. The only known temple built for her was destroyed by a lightning strike... several times. The Lady is an especially interesting example, because she may be the only example of this type of god in a world where [[Gods Need Prayer Badly]]. This is explained by everyone believing in luck, despite no one worshiping it.
** ''[[Discworld/Monstrous Regiment|Monstrous Regiment]]'' - {{spoiler|The Duchess isn't actually a deity, but due to the nature of belief on the Disc, the fact that people pray to her has sort of turned her into one. Even though she should have died from a painful disease long ago, and is being kept alive by their worship. She's not very happy about this.}}
** There is also a God of Evolution, who actively ''hides'' his existence so that nobody worships him anymore. He used to have worshipers, but they were all killed. Even he acknowledges his continued existence should be impossible in this setting.
** Bilious, the Oh God of Hangovers, who is worshiped by default whenever some miserably hungover wretch whimpers "oh god", is strongly in favor of temperance.
