Moradin

The All-Father

Moradin is the lawful good deity of creation and patron of artisans, especially miners and smiths. He carved the mountains from primordial earth and is the guardian and protector of the hearth and the family. Dwarves from all walks of life follow him, for he is their creator.

Divine Symbols & Sigils

Tenets of Faith

His disciplines for his followers are thus:

Approach perfection in all things. If you are to work, put your soul into it. If you are to create, make it a masterpiece. If you are to be merry, drink everyone under the table.
Wisdom is brought by experience, so never forget to live life to the fullest.
Do all things with honor, integrity, and respect.
Always work towards innovation, yet never abandon the traditions of your fathers.
Found new kingdoms and clans, but never fail to protect your old ones.

Holidays

Moradin is worshiped on what is commonly known as "Aldoftanim" or The Day of the Hammer, as it is considered to be the anniversary of when he forged the first dwarf. The holiday takes place on the 61st of Divahs. While it is predominantly only respected by dwarves, most forges and bars will offer a discount on their wares that day out of respect for Moradin.
