Grumbar

Grumbar (pronounced GRUM-bar ), or the Earthlord, is the elemental embodiment of earth. He is one of the four elemental deities worshiped in Faerûn. Grumbar, like the other elemental deities (excepting Kossuth) has a minute following in Faerûn, and he does indeed care little for most of those worshipers, as his power comes from the many elemental devotees from both the Underdark and the Elemental Plane of Earth.

Worshipers
The church of Grumbar is organized into small sects known as Holds, each comprising seven clerics, seven monks, and seven rangers and as many laity as can be supported. Those who follow the Earthlord can often be found in public preaching against evils of boarding ships and setting sail to uncharted lands, preferring exploration on the continent of Faerûn.

Relationships
Grumbar has ties with other deities with ties to elemental earth, including Geb, Garl Glittergold, Dumathoin, Laduguer, and Urogalan, but these are loose at best. Grumbar is opposed to Akadi and her flimsy and ever-changing ways.

Dogma
"The eternal Grumbar is perfect and unchanging. Strive to be more like the eternal one, not to change or allow change to happen. One's given word is the bedrock upon which a stable society is built. To break an oath is to cause a crack in the foundation of civilization. Go forth and spread the word of Grumbar and show through your works the stability and safety he brings."
