Need Deity Assistance

[drawingfreak]

I'm looking for a god or goddess for the dwarves in a game that I am throwing together.
They usually keep to themselves more so than usual in this world and have to do business with a theocratic government. Don't know if that helps much.
Official and homebrew welcome.

'Nuff said.

If they're still lawful good just use Moradin, he's fine as-is.

What world? Greyhawk? General Faerün? Planescape (unlikely tho:P)? Dark Sun? Eberron? Underdark? Garweeze?

Planescape isn't a word. It also shares forgotten realms gods in many cases.

I always prefered Grungni myself. Just for the name. Moradin sounds dull in comparison.

[B!shop]

Dumathoin absolutely.

I've always seen him as the most dwarvish deity of the dwaven pantheon.

[rawling]

Mmm, diety.

I need some lunch

[warmachine]

Damn, beaten to it.

You need help with losing weight?

/me runs away.

[DraPrime]

As long as your dwarves are lawful good use Moradin. Just change a couple things about his doctrince, give him a nice new name, and behold! A diety that looks like it took originality to invent but actually didn't.

I don't get it....*sees misspelled title*

*smacks forehead*

You know what Diet is don’t you?

Its “DIE” with a “t” in it.

Does this qualify as irony? Great stuff. Well, it made me chuckle, as it took me several moments to work out what was meant...

Unless you are playing a cleric, I wouldn't worry about it. I have had a heck of a time looking for a good Forgotten Realms deity for a Chaotic Good barbarian, but they all tended to be fruity women or elves.
