Ulfgar

Ulfgar is one of the third tier of deities in Arcania known as the Ascendants

History
Born to a family of Dwarfs living in the Shattered Hills, Ulfgar was remarkable from the moment of his birth. Able to walk and talk after a matter of months, he was looked upon with awe by those of his family, clan and village. However, the young dwarf was orphaned before his tenth birthday when the village was attacked and destroyed by drow raiders.

Left alone with only the tools and weapons of his father, Ulfgar learned to survive on his own. Immensely strong, he taught himself to wield his father's warhammer even though it was almost as big as he. Consumed with a thirst for vengeance, he was, by the age of 20, able to track down the drow who attacked his village and slay them.

This brought him him to the attention of the Gods who elected to raise him to the status of Ascendant.

Background
Ulfgar is the Arcanian God of War, particularly those who fight for a cause that is just and noble. Before going into battle, warriors engrave his rune onto their weapons in the hope that he will give them victory in battle.

Worship Among Races
As the more aggressive races on Arcania, Ulfgar is particularly revered by Dwarfs and humans.

Symbols
Ulgar is unique among the gods in that he has two symbols that are used. The first, and most important, depicts a pair of crossed axes on an orange disc. The second, often engraved upon weapons before battle, is the 'U' rune.

Alignment and Domains
Ulfgar is considered to be of the Chaotic Neutral alignment. His domains are those of War and Tempest.
