Tholuk
A god of struggle and change, the mad god Tholuk has only recently
returned to prominence after centuries of abandonment. His symbol is a
Sword and a lunatic's face. Cults dedicated to Tholuk
usually crop up in times of great change, worshiping battle-lust and
celebrating life with equal abandon. He is ally to none and
enemy to none - more a temperamental force of nature. His worship is
strong amongst the
goblinoid races, who see him as the "Happy Death" and enjoy loosing
themselves in berserk rages while wearing bright colors and bells. He
has
always been popular amongst the Blue Elves (who's ancient tales tell of
how he
made the first mothers of their kind, Myndi & Thorkatlah before the
Dawn of
Time), the Slaadi and the Mutants of the Chaos Wastes, but none hold
him higher
than the Trolls. His priests often multiclass as Barbarians and
Fighters so as better to meet that aspect of their god. His Domains are
Chaos, Death, Destruction and War. His favorite weapon is the sword
(any sort will do).
Priests
often wear bells and clashing colors. To them, madmen are
sacred. Lunatics are obviously touched by god. Required
Observances include a libation of Beer (or your own blood, if no beer
is available) offered at Dusk, while facing West. This symbolizes the
passing of life into death. This is often accompanied by a few
minutes of silence while the Priest remembers those dead he has known,
followed by loud laughter, songs, etc.(all optional - only the libation
is
absolutely necessary).

Damaelrozolon
The Clever
God, Damaelrozolon
is one of
the last of the old gods. He is the Keeper of Secrets and the
Whisperer on
the Wind. He survived the birth of the world only by having the
foresight (so he claimed) to not be there when it happened. He is
worshiped by
a small but eclectic scattering of scholars and rogues, but has largely
become a myth in other people's religions and is suspected to be one of
the Lost
Gods. Being an oracular deity, he tends to keep from
taking an active hand in mortal affairs rather than stress fate.
His
symbol is a circle enclosing an eye. His Domains are Air,
Knowledge,
Trickery, and Travel.
Skahild
Mother
Moon, the Screaming One, the Black Druid, Merry Prankster, Silver Ghost
- Skahild was mother to the Founding Stone that rests at the heart of
the world. A Godcarrier who outstripped her station, it is said she
once served nature as a Druid but was seduced by Tholuk to the ways of
Chaos. She was captured in the Phantom Kingdom by the Litch Flossi, who
hoped to use the Stone to become a god himself. In the First Battle at
the Birth of the World Tholuk struck her head from her shoulders and
fasioned the moon. Her worship continues from all those who Her symbol
is a pale face, either screaming or laughing (sometimes both). Her
domains include Undeath, Madness, Moon, and Restoration.
