Goromund, The Stone-Sovereign
Colossal and unmoving as the oldest peaks, Goromund is the Titan of Earth—a being as ancient and immovable as time itself. Carved from the first mountains of Aigusyl and infused with the essence of stone, soil, and ore, Goromund is the embodiment of endurance, gravity, and stability. His form resembles a craggy mountain come to life: a monolith of granite and crystal, his face etched with the wear of ages, eyes glowing like veins of emerald buried deep within the earth.
Goromund is both the stillness of an untouched vale and the crushing force of a landslide. He rarely stirs, for every movement is tectonic—whole landscapes shift when he rises. Caverns are his veins, mountains his bones, and the roots of the world coil around his buried heart. Where Vulkhar burns and reshapes, Goromund endures and shelters. He is the keeper of hidden knowledge, of fossils and fossils-to-be, a being for whom time is measured in the settling of continents.
He is revered by dwarves, deep gnomes, earth genasi, and stone giants, as well as by monks and druids who seek balance and permanence. Temples to Goromund are often subterranean sanctuaries carved into ancient cliffs or beneath massive stone monoliths, where his faithful meditate on patience, strength, and the quiet resilience of the world.
During The Fracture War, Goromund remained a neutral colossus, rising only when the earth itself cried out in agony. He opposed the mindless destruction of The Revelry of Ruin but did not align with the Aether Alliance either. When provoked, he unleashed earth-shattering might: rending battlefields with chasms, entombing legions beneath collapsing cliffs, or raising ramparts of stone to shield the innocent.
