G'shos

Lord of Silver

G'shos is a god associated with artifacts, golems, and truesteel . He is worshipped primarily by artificers, the Manatek, and sentient golems.   It is said that the goddess of art, Malthet, created him as a gift to her lover Onkke.

Physical Description

Identifying Characteristics

The form of G'shos is well known and documented across various stories, but is malleable so stories vary. Most describe him as a humanoid figure made of silver-blue metal standing at around 14' feet. Imbued with the grace and fluidity of the wind, the curves that make up his form are ever changing. Millions of points of detailed filigree constantly shift into new masterpieces that would take a mortal a lifetime to plan - let alone carve.   His face is one of the only details that seldom changes. It is said that G'shos chose it himself, rather than it being part of Malthet's design, and it manifests as a strong jawed humanoid that most describe with gentle eyes and high cheekbones.   His silvery-blue truesteel form is what earned him the incorrect title of Lord of Silver, though it is one that has stuck.

Social

Family Ties

Other golems created by Malthet are said to be G'shos' brothers and sisters. Many believe that destroying these golems, even non-sentient ones, to be bad luck and the fastest way to earn the god of silver's ire.
