Bes was a Lesser Power of the Pharaonic pantheon. He granted luck to those taking risks, as long as it wasn't too foolish a wager.[1]

Bes wandered the Outlands and had one proxy, a human called Amenemhab. Planar sages believed he was closely linked to the Dwarvish pantheon.[1] As a deity of luck who appeared as a dwarf, his worship in Mulhorand and the rest of Toril was eventually subsumed by the more prominent dwarvish power Vergadain.[2]
