BANE. He was a god of war and leadership who ruled over all the goblinoid deities with an iron fist. As a god of war and a great general he was also known as The Battle Lord.

Following:
The priests and shamans of Maglubiyet were his mouthpieces on the
PRIME MATERIAL PLANE. They fulfilled his demands for blood sacrifices by dispatching victims with an axe. They believed that these sacrifices strengthened Maglubiyet. His clergy was almost always drawn from the goblin and hobgoblin races. The tasloi (Ancient Jungle Dwelling Goblins) also worshiped an aspect of Maglubiyet. Maglubiyet 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 Maglubiyet."
