Ferrakus

Ferrakus is the God of the Earthbound races, miners, engineers and stonecrafters. Ferrakus is True Neutral. Ferrakus is a  God, having ascended around the time of the first Cataclysm, after the previous god of Earth died in the events surrounding the Cataclysm. It is unknown if he was a dwarf or a gnome; both races claim he is of them and he is often depicted as the one that is more common in the region. To other races, he looks close enough to be either. He is often referred to as the Lord Beneath and the Earthtremor. A central idea of most Ferrakus practices is that nothing can last forever, not the good, not the bad.
