Garl
appears as a handsome golden skinned Gnome with ever changing gemstones for
eyes. His mischievous exploits form the basis of an entire cycle of stories.
Which are told and retold around the Gnomish hearths in the hills.
However,
there is another side to Garl than that of the witty adventurer who collapsed
the Kobolds king cavern. When his people are threatened Garl is a grim and determined
war leader who out thinks as well as out fights his opponents.
He
wields Arumdina, and intelligent +5 mithril steel battle axe that cuts stone
as easily as it does enemies. Arumdina strikes for 3-30 points of damage and
can heal Garl completely once per day.
The
Gnomes have 5 or 6 other deities besides Garl Glitter Gold, but he is their
leader, and none are as popular as he. Garl's clerics require gold ( or other
precious metals, if no gold is available) for sacrifices to the deity. Gnome
non player character clerics can advance to 7th level.

The
Orcs have many gods, but their leader is Gruumsh. His name is never spoken by
non shaman orcs, who refer to him as he who watches or he who never sleeps.
Gruumsh's symbol is a great unwinking eye, which represents the belief that
Gruumsh watches eye any every Orc and judges him fit or unfit. Gruumsh has but
one large eye in the center of his forehead. He appears as a huge Orish humanoid
wearing gleaming black platemail, holding a flaming torch in one hand and a
great iron spear in the other. This spear is a +5 weapon that strike for 3-30
damage plus paralysis (save at -4).
The
Orcs say that Gruumsh commands a mighty army of spirit Orcs in hell, and these
war continuously with a similar army of spirit goblins controlled by Maglubiyet.
The Orcs always defeat the Goblins, but the Goblin spirits always reform to
start the battle again.
To
become a shaman of Gruumsh an Orc must pluck out his own left eye. The proper
worship of Gruumsh requires blood in large quantities. Preferably blood from
a human or demi human race (Elves are best of all). Orcish shamans range up
to 5th level of ability.
