Garl Glittergold

The god of gnomes, Garl Glittergold, was neutral good. He was known as the Joker, the Watchful Protector, the Priceless Gem, and the Sparkling Wit. Garl Glittergold discovered the gnomes and led them into the world. Since then, he was their protector. He governed humor, wit, gemcutting, and jewelrymaking. The domains he was associated with were Good, Protection, and Trickery. Garl’s favored weapon was the battleaxe. He was renowned for the jokes and pranks he pulled on other deities, though not all his victims laughed off his jests. Garl once collapsed the cavern of Kurtulmak, the god of the kobolds. Since then, the two deities were sworn enemies.

During the Cataclysmic God War, Kurtulmak led an army of kobolds against Garl. Kurtulmak's forces overwhelmed the gnome's defenses, and they murdered him in his palace. The invading forces then tore the realm apart before destabilizing the plane and moving on.
