Blankalon, New God
Blankalon - God of Goblinoids and Blood, Wilderness, and Hunting
Blankalon appeared as an 11-ft (3.4 m) tall, Bright Green skinned goblin with flaming eyes, powerfully-muscled arms and sharp talons. He has bright orange hair that extends down his neck onto his back into a terrifying mane. He wielded a mighty coal-black battleaxe that constantly dripped blood.
Blankalon’s divine realm was Strefightelus located in one of the divine planes. The mightiest goblin city in Strefightelus was Blankussaron, a fortification with five bridges spanning the River Lorfang. Blankalon lived at the bottom of a waterfall of the river in a cavern of magnificently carved steel dripping with molten metal.
From his throne of flaming iron, Blankalon commanded the souls of goblins, hobgoblins, and worgs to wage eternal war against the orcish petitioners of Gruumsh.

Holy Books & Codes
In the holy mountain of Blankalon there exists a book made of human flesh and written in blood that holds the Goblin codes for worshipping Blankalon and serving his needs. There is a small group of elite priests that tend to these inner chambers and make sure the book remains where it is. Many rumors mention that this section of the mountain may be a portal into Strefightelus itself and Blankalon could travel into the material plane.
Divine Symbols & Sigils
The axe and the quarter moon with a red star in the middle.
Tenets of Faith
Blankalon communed with his priests through omens. Blood flowing from the edge of an axe, abnormal behavior in worgs and wolves, and speaking directly through shamans in a trance were all ways he made his will known.
Maglubiyet's holy day was the new moon and his holy weapon was the battleaxe. His goblin worshipers were sometimes referred to as the "sons of Blankalon."
“ Blankalon revels in conflict and destruction and constantly pushes his followers to wage war, particularly against dwarves and gnomes. He encourages goblins to increase their numbers in order to overrun their enemies. As a paranoid god he is prone to destroy lesser goblin deities when he suspects treachery or he thinks they are becoming too powerful. ”
