Splitting of the Dwarves
After O'hl finished creating the dwarven pantheon, he sat back satisfied to watch the new beings and their gods. The dwarven god Kregur became jealous of Grumbarr and his ascension to the dwarven god throne, Kregur tried to convince the human pantheon to step in and dethrone Grumbarr in Kregur's favor. kregur's followers began murdering faithful of Grumbarr. Dwarves who followed Kregur rebelled, fighting their brethren. When O'hl heard this, he approached Kregur who cowered and angrily cursed the Overgod. With a swift hand, O'hl grabbed the Dwarven deity and ripped him in half. All of the dwarves goodness and positivity in one half, and negativity , evil, avarice and greed in the other.
The evil half, grew into a shorter, darker dwarf with dark skin and white hair. This half became Kreguraer- god of the Duergar
All the followers of Kregur fell, mutating to match their fallen god's visage, and they all become Duergar. Their god is renamed Kreguraer.
The good half, love, affinity to rocks, earth shrunk in size as well, the skin became ruddy dark like rock. The creature's hair fell out and became a new creature. O'hl attests to all pantheons this new being shall be a gnome. o'hl names him and becomes Dredgeigromlok, First gnome and god of gnomes. Dwarves continued to exist with new gnome cousins as allies of the Earth and defenders against those Duergar.
