Depiction

  Rhemnys is depicted as a broad dwarven man, often dark-skinned and red-haired. He is depicted working at his forge, wearing a leather apron and covered in soot.   Rhemnys is a quiet, fatherly god who stresses the importance of toil and discipline. He is the patron of crafters and considered the god most tied to the elemental revolution. He does not interfere in mortal life as much as some other deities, although new inventions are said to be inspired by Rhemnys's hand. Although quiet and sometimes stern, he also has a jolly sense of humor and a warm regard for crafters and workers of all varieties.   

Relationships

Rhemnys is the brother of Caelus and Barasios, the husband of Loreali, the father of Sephira, Steyfano, and Athesne, and the grandfather of Kallias   Rhemnys deals fairly and evenly with all of the other gods, although some of the more anarchic deities tend to butt heads with him on occasion. He is very fond of his children and grandchildren and often gifts them with small things he has created. Rhemnys is the one who built the magical weaponry of the other deities, and helped Kelesta plan the design of Morwen's prison.
