mateolog 1623 Share Posted January 9, 2018 The Dwarven Religions: The Religion of The Brathmordakin (Official Religion of the Dwarves) The Brathmordakin are a pantheon of gods, the divine rulers of the dwarven race. There are seven dwarven gods with Yemekar, the creator, as the strongest and the de facto leader. The other gods are a collection of six aenguls and daemons. The reason dwarves worship a god is to secure a place for their souls in the afterlife. When a dwarf dies, his soul travels to Dungrimm’s keep on the moon where it is auctioned off to the god who bids the highest for it. A dwarf that has faithfully served their god in life will have a much greater chance of bought by and serving that god in the afterlife. Yemekar, The Maker Symbol: Hammer & Anvil Alignment: Lawful Good Species: Creator Portfolio: Creation, balance, leader, smithing, protection, metalwork, stonework, fire Yemekar is the father and creator of the dwarven race. Honor him by emulating his principles and workmanship in smithing, stoneworking and other tasks. Wisdom is derived from life and tempered with experience. Advance the dwarven race in all areas of life. Innovate with new processes and skills. Found new kingdoms and clan lands, defending the existing ones from all threats. Lead the dwarves in the traditions laid down by The Maker. Honor your clan leaders as you honor Yemekar. Anbella, Hearth Mother Symbol: Two Silver Rings Alignment: Lawful Good Species: Aengul Portfolio: Safety, honesty, home, healing, marriage, family, fertility, records, oaths, water, nature, peace Anbella is the wife of Yemekar. Just as dwarven souls are forged on Yemekar's Ruhn-Anvil, they are ever warmed and nurtured by the loving embrace of the Hearth Mother. Tend to hearth, home, and land, drawing strength and safety from truth, tradition and the rule of law. Join with friends, kin and clan in common purpose. Do not succumb to the misery of greed or the evils of strife, but always bring hope. health and cheer to those in need. Once an oath is made, Anbella watches over its keeping - to break it is to wound her sorely. Children must be cherished and guarded well from harm, for they are the future of all dwarvenkind. Dungrimm, Guardian of The Dead Symbol: An Iron Mask Alignment: Lawful Good Species: Daemon Portfolio: Battle, valor, bravery, honor, defense, the dead, the moon The finest hours of dwarven kind come in the thrusts and feints of war. Seize the opportunity to defend your kin and ensure their victory when conflict erupts. Revel in the challenge of a good fight and never waiver in the face of adversity, no matter how ominous. Lives should never be thrown away foolishly, but the greatest honor is to sacrifice oneself for the cause of the field of battle in service to a righteous cause. Honor the dead and death itself and keep the places of the dead inviolate and well tended; the noble ancestors of our race will neither be robbed nor moved through the actions of thieves and defilers. Abide not undead creatures, especially those that take the form of dwarves, thus mocking the creation of Yemekar.

It is said the it is he who was responsible for the undead attacks on Aegis and his name is often used synonymously with the archdaemon, Iblees.
