There are two new deities worshiped on Gorilla Island: Der-Maga, the winged goddess of the derhii and vanara; and Gral-Bara, the demonic ape-god of the girallons and kech. Each cult possesses an enchanted idol of its god, kept under guard in a holy place (Der-Maga's in Her shrine; Gral-Bara's in Kadriku's lair near the stone circle).
Der-Maga
The winged ape goddess Der-Maga appears as an idealized female derhii (Bestiary 3 75) with silver-feathered wings. As a mother goddess, she is often depicted with swollen breasts and belly.

Gral-Bara
The Demon Lord of Apes appears as a four-armed gorilla with blood-red fur and large, curling horns. His primary servants are high girallons (Bestiary 154) and the demon-like baregara (Bestiary 3 34), both of which closely resemble him. He also has cults among other savage species, including keches (Bestiary 3 167), tribes of feral humans, and other primates.

The Idol of Gral-Bara
This statuette is carved of black stone that glows a dark blood-red when struck by bright light. While it appears to be obsidian, it is not easily damaged, having been magically hardened. This objects functions identically to a darkskull (Core Rulebook 508), creating a mobile unhallow effect centered on itself. Within this area (40 ft. radius), it also radiates a bane effect (DC 15) that affects all nonevil creatures.
