In the World of Greyhawkcampaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragonsrole-playing game, Fortubo is the god of Stone, Metals, Mountains, and Guardianship. Originally a member of the Suel pantheon, Fortubo abandoned the Suloise upon discovering that the Suel were behind the creation of the Derro. Fortubo now favors dwarves above any other race, and has relatively few human worshippers. He is a close ally of Moradin and other good dwarven deities. Fortubo avoids all other gods save for his brother, the Suel deity Jascar.
Description
Fortubo appears as a short, bearded Suel human with more than a passing resemblance to a dwarf. He wields a great hammer named Golbi, said to be a gift from Moradin himself.
Clergy and Temples
Fortubo's holy symbol is a warhammer with a glowing head, though any hammer will serve. Fortubo's priests are nearly always dwarven. The priesthood welcomes both male and female priests, especially married couples. The children of married pairs of Fortuban priests are said to be blessed with exceptional endurance and insight. The priests of Fortubo focus chiefly on the protection of dwarven communities. They are intense foes of orcs and goblins, as they feel these beings harm the earth with their pointless tunneling.
The faith of Fortubo is most popular in Irongate, Onnwal, Sterich, Sunndi, and the Yeomanry. Up until 583 CY, the chief temple of Fortubo's faith was in the town of Dwarfhaven on Lendore Isle. It is assummed that the faith moved its headquarters to another location after the elven followers of Sehanine Moonbow took control of Lendore Isle in that year.
