Moradin, the All-Hammer Character in Mänterra | World Anvil

Moradin, the All-Hammer

God

Moradin is worshiped by smiths, artisans, and miners alike, granting inspiration in exchange for respect and prayer.
He shaped the mountains from the chaos of the Creation, and stands as the patron protector of home and family. The devotion to the All-Hammer is strongest in dwarven communities, and many temples to Moradin mark the center of a mighty dwarven stronghold.   Moradin lords over the soul forges within the massive tunneled mansion of Erackinor, deep beneath the slopes of Solania on the plane of Celestia.
