Durika Steelshadow (Keeper of Secrets under the Mountain)
Durika Steelshadow is the daughter of Folgrim Dwarflord and a maiden of the Duergar family Steelshadow. Durika has been jealous of her father’s power and has spent much of her life seeking a means to ascend to greater godhood. To that end she has gathered a number of ancient artifacts of dwarf make and built her cult around the gathering of secret power.

Tenets of Faith
The followers of Durika are truly a cult of personality focused on the racial superiority of the Duergar over the hill dwarfs. Their entire focus is to assure the ascendancy of their goddess and they believe she will eventually take over for Folgrim and reduce the hill dwarfs to a slave race under the Duergar. It is uncertain if this is the true aim of Durika herself or simply the natural xenophobia of her Duergar followers. Durika has also sought to expand her cult closer to the surface in the guise of the demigoddess of Mining.
