Greater god Clangeddin

Post by _LuCkY_ » Sat Jun 21, 2003 7:16 am

I was looking at the Pantheon and saw the greater god Clangeddin listed as god of dwarves and blacksmiths and this would be perfect for my character. However I can't find any information about him. Could someone tell me a bit more about him?

He is the pimpest of pimps. God of sexy bearded chicks, flowing ale, and bit of the throw down!


As for anything more, that's for Orl to put out. He is supposed to be similar to the FR god Clangeddin, which has him as the Dwarven god of Battle, War, Valor, Bravery, Honor in battle, according to the FRCS.

I've been looking at the FR god Clangeddin Silverbeard, but the alignment restriction is to lawfull there. In the avlis pantheon however Clangeddin is Neutral Good himself (in FR he is Lawfull Neutral). The dwarf I'm playing is Chaotic Good. Would this be a problem for worshipping Clangeddin? Also I was wondering about the presence of followers of Clangeddin. I've never met anyone speaking about him or will that perhaps come with deglos? Also when I look at the FR god, he seems to be just a wargod, while the Avlis Pantheon explicitly says he is for blacksmithing as well.

This is because in my oldest notes, it was Moradin, not Clangeddin. So I actually still have Moradin's stats there.... thanks for catching the mistake. Clangeddin is about war and most of his other FR attributes.

then what god is there for a chaotic good dwarf. I mean all chaotic gods are for those treehuggers. Gloi certainly doesn't fit between those. Then there's Fegall. Maybe I should look into that one, however that one is a real gnome god.

I'm actually still interested in Clangeddin, but he is Lawfull and I play a barbarian so I can never become lawfull. Would it still be okay to worship such a god?

i believe the 3E rules state that you can be 1 alignment step away from your diety with no problem.

So if Clangeddin is LG, his worshippers could be LG, CG, NG, and I think LN as well

According to FR he is LN. If you take into account the one step alignment rule that means the worshippers can be LG, LN, TN and LE and certainly not CG.

Unless Orleron changes it, this is from the World Info thread:
Clangeddin, NG, Any Dwarf or Gnome, Dwarves & Blacksmiths, Greater
so based on that that would mean, NG, LG, CG, and TN

Actually, that NG is a mistake, as I hinted above. I didn't change Clangeddin's stats over when I put him in instead of Moradin. Clangeddin is LN.

Chaotic dwarves would follow Fegall, CN.
