Garl Glittergold

The Joker, The Watchful Protector, The Priceless Gem, The Sparkling Wit

Once upon a time, the gnomish people were solemn, cold, and lonely, wandering in the deepest depths. Then, one day, they came across a man who glimmered like precious gold was woven into his clothes and hair. The man told them a joke, and for the first time, the gnomes knew laughter. Delighted by their joy, the man led them to the surface, and he would become their watchful protector, their priceless gem, their sparkling wit; Garl Glittergold. The gnomes' chief god teaches them that even when life is hard, they should always keep a sense of humor and never take themselves too seriously.
The Garlian priesthood serve their communities as protectors, educators, mediators, and certainly not least of all, entertainers. Though their highest priority is the protection of the gnomish people, and they dedicate themselves to the ever-vigilant defense against kobolds and denizens of the Underdark, the clergy are never so serious that they can’t stop to play a good-hearted prank, or tell a joke.
Garlian churches are places of charity in which every visitor has a seat at the table. Their plate might have a few too many spicy peppers hidden in it, but they will be fed. If they can endure the pranks and jests, visitors will find the church to be kind, welcoming, and generous. Libraries within these churches always contain a sizable section for jokes, pranks, and tales of dubious historicity.
The Communion of Laughter is held on the 13th of every month and lasts from sunrise to sundown. There are times for dancing, quiet contemplation, communal meals, and of course, for gold and silver to be thrown into the church’s alms bucket, knowing that every coin will go to the benefit of the community.
