Kurtulmak

Alignment: Lawful Evil

Domains: War

Pantheon: Kobold

Symbol: Gnome skull

Kurtulmak was the patron deity of the kobolds, and they claimed he gave them life. After Kurtulmak created the kobolds and taught them the skills of thieving and pillaging, the gnomes entered into an eternal conflict with his creations, angering him.

According to legend, the gnome god Garl Glittergold stole something from Tiamat's hoard, and Tiamat sent Kurtulmak to retrieve it. unfortunately, Garl Glittergold lured Kurtulmak into a system of caves, which Garl Glittergold escaped from and collapsed, leaving Kurtulmak trapped for eternity.

Though not widely worshipped by kobolds, most still acknowledge Kurtulmak as their patron deity. More traditional kobolds may still harbour ill-will towards gnomes, but most forward thinking kobolds have moved beyond this.
