Ishap (the Matrix/Balancer) is dead and gone. However his clergy (with the help of the 4 surviving Greater (Builder) Gods) is working towards his return.
Nalar (Chaos/Evil) is entraped.
Arch-Indar (the good goddess) is dead, but is still active as a ghost/shadow/memory, which we have seen is able to act against the agents of Nalar.

The remaining 4 of the 7 Greater Gods of Midkemia are still active, but are remote, as they are the Builder Gods.

Of the Lesser Gods that are still surviving, these are the most active in the world.

Many Lesser gods are dead, but some are just Missing. And the dead gods are able to return with the help of worshippers, so the line is a bit blurred.

It was my understanding that Wodar-Hospur was the "missing" god of knowledge, and that it was his Codex that Nakar was carrying around for centuries, which may explain his touch of godliness.

And we must remember that he did found the resurgent Church of the Good Goddess (Arch-Indar).

However, the point about Banath is interesting, and in Exile's Return it was pointed out that Banath (Kalkin) is safeguarding knowledge in Novidimus, similar to how the priests of Ishap are gathering the total sum of recorded information at Sarth (or now "that which was Sarth") up in the Kingdom (on the continent of Triagra).

Kaspar's conversation with Kalkin/Banath on his way to the Pavilion of the Gods does have a Nakar-ish feel to it, so I wouldn't be surprised if Banath was influencing our old friend.
