Character Backgrounds available somewhere?

Is the list of character backgrounds we can choose from available somewhere online to browse? The fluff one that you get to pick 'Druken Sailor' from Lantan or whatever as your background.

When the servers are up, I just want to play, but now that I have some spare time, I want to see what my options are :)

    A handy list of the dieties available (at least in the betas) would be nice too, rather than having to sift through videos.

    Maybe this help, until somebody come up with a proper text-based list:

    I'm working on this for the Neverwinter wiki. The deities list will be up today(and will include all the deities). The Character Backgrounds will take a bit longer but I hope to have at least a preliminary write-up done today with what is available from the various videos.

    Because I can't post new thread (I don't know why, but I guess because I'm ''new guy'' and that is some kind of anti-spam protection, but nevermind...), I have to share my very first impressions here, in ''close enough'' one (well... search tool found ''Deities - why so selective'', but that one was closed).

    As we know, there is no possibility to choose most of FR deities - only twelve most powerful ''good ones'' (including rather neutral Oghma and Kelemvor). But also we can choose Netherese background with ''Shadovar Elite'' ''subversion''. Where's the problem? Well... Most (which means ''almost everyone'') Shadovar Elite worships Shar, evil goddess of night, darkness and secrets. Even choosing Oghma in this case looks a bit weird.

    Exacly as choosing half-orc (or non-elf/half-elf even) ''Descendant of Coronals'' from elven Myth-Drannor.

    So, it would be very nice if some backgrounds would be restricted to worshipers of appropriate deities.

    ...And it would be even more nice, if there would be possibility to chose evil gods like Shar, Bane, Gruumsh (we have elven Corellon, so why not orkish Gruumsh, when we have playable half orcs?) or even Asmodeus and Cyric.

    ...And sorry for my rather poor english.
