Personal history
Little is known about the origin of Moradin as few beings existed at the time before the world. According to most scholars count Moradin among the first creator deities, those credited with the creation of the material plane. Evidence for this is most commonly given in the form of the myth the Creation of the dwarves, where Moradin is said to have pulled the mountains from the depths of the world.
