Which god do you prefer 2?

[Ariadne]

Enough gods now? I don't know, but I hope so...

I can't vote in this poll, because I voted for Khirdai allready. If you didn't found your god in the last poll, try it here...

[Azrai]

Finally Ruornil is available ...

[Temujin]

Those options:
Berronar Truesilver or Clangedin Siverbeard, Yondalla, Garl Glittergold, Abbathor or Vergadain

I doubt any of these gods officially exist in Birthright, and if they do, I for sure don't remember them. Remember halflings worship an aspect of Avani and there are no gnomes arround. So Yondalla and Garl should be out. The two other gods, I don't even have a clue who they are in the D&D world, so...

You can't say, I gave too few options. If they exist in Cerilia is an other question... :P

By the way, the dwarves of Mur Khilad would worship a lawfull good deity (Moradin)? I don't think so. So Abbathor is a good alternative...

[Emerald Greybeard]

'tis good to see other gods to vote for! Why wouldn't dwarves of Mur Khilad worship Moradin? The accepted alignment of clerics pretty much covers all the good alignments.

[Kappenkriaucheran]

Yes, those are enough gods for now ;).

The dwarves of Mur-Kilad are mostly lawful evil thanks to the Gorgon, but there are some small temples to Moradin there (PS: Baruk-Azhik). IMC the only dwarven deity is Moradin, although the BR box says that there are/might be other dwarven gods. DM´s call, I guess.

My take on the dwarven gods was that their pantheon was so orderly that
Moradin was the undisputed leader. There was only one temple, because
doctrine and teaching would not vary. I put individual temples in each of
the dwarven realms, and other places that dwarves were identified as
inhabiting, but it was only the ruler who was different. The ritual and
habit of the temples was uncannily similar. The Overthane of Baruk-Azhik
had a special devotion to Dumathoin, but the worship of Dumathoin took place
within Moradin`s Forge. All of this flows from the longevity and lawfulness
of the dwarves.

As far as Mur-Kilad is concerned, its not that the dwarves there are
instrinsically evil, they are an oppressed population. Its the realm
leadership which is evil, and that has to do with the Gorgon`s domination of
the place. The Gorgon resists the temples of Moradin`s Forge because he
knows that this other axis of power in his subject domain would be a rival
for his control. Given their druthers, the dwarves of Mur-Kilad would
prefer to be independent, non-evil, and worship Moradin.
