Helm (pronounced HELM ), also known as the Vigilant One and The Watcher, is the god of guardians, protection and protectors. He is worshiped by guards and paladins both, long being seen as a cold and focused deity who impartially took the role of defender and sometimes also enforcer.

Far back in time, the deity Lathander caused a divine purge known as the Dawn Cataclysm in which Helm's lover, a lesser deity of pragmatism called Murdane, was victim. However, Helm reserved his opposition for deities whose plots threatened the people and stability of Faerûn. Especially Bane, Mask, and Shar. He was particularly at odds with the wanton violence and careless destruction of the deities Garagos, Malar, and Talos.
