Skoraeus Stonebones (pronounced: skor-AY-us) was a titan worshiped as a god by the stone
GIANTS.
Description:
The avatar of Skoraeus was said to resemble large, bulky stone giant with granite skin. In stone giant art he is typically depicted as being twice as tall as any stone giant. This race's art most often depicted his hands, with one holding a chisel and the other a hammer. Though the most prevalent depiction of him was as a statue or a relief, the largest within any given tribe's cave.
Personality:
Skoraeus was a very dour and expressionless loner. In many giant legends he was said to have sat on the sidelines while his other siblings schemed or fought, acting as both an observer and a confidant to all parties. In some legends, he portrayed as a keeper of one secret or another that others try to either force or trick him into revealing. Skoraeus was generally considered the wisest and most knowledgeable of all the giant gods when it came to banes, magic, wards, hidden treasures, and secrets of the earth.
Following:
Skoraeus was typically worshiped by stone giants. In the absence of
ANNAM ALL-FATHER, they believed him to be the head of the giant pantheon. His priests were frequently on the lookout for his omens, especially in the raw caverns of the
UNDERDARK, though they spent most of their time either meditating or creating intricate sculptures or friezes. Priests of Skoraeus were known to be gifted spells related to
elemental earth, such as
stone shape,
stoneskin,
passwall,
flesh to stone, and
stone tell.
