KARONTOR

Lesser Deity

Forgotten Realms

Karontor was one of the sons of ANNAM ALL-FATHER, the Father of all true GIANTS, and god of the FOMORIANs and VERBEEG. His brothers were GROLANTOR, STRONMAUS, SKORAEUS STONEBONES , MEMNOR, SURTUR, and THRYM. His sisters were HIATEA, IALLANIS, and DIANCASTRA.
ANNAM ALL-FATHER banished Karontor for his missdeeds, and the grudge he bore his father in return ran deep. The dwarven Father of Battle, CLANGEDDIN SILVERBEARD, considered Karontor one of his greatest enemies.
Karontor was known as the patron deity of the twisted FOMORIANs and VERBEEGs. Karontor was a purely evil deity. He resided in the plane of TARTERUS, ruling a frozen plain of ice, where ever-hungry winter wolves awaited his orders to hunt across the land. It was rumored among the FOMORIANs and VERBEEGs that at one point in time, Karontor was a great and beautiful being. But his greed and jealousy of STRONMAUS caused his form to become twisted and deformed.
