Crom

More Information
The "God who requires no worship." - Crom watches the world from his mountain top, Mount Crom. To pray to Crom is a pointless task, as it will only invoke his anger. Prayer is a sign of weakness, and Crom has little patience for the weak. Cimmerians prefer not to attract his attention, and if his name is muttered, it is usually in the form of an oath or a curse. There is no established clergy devoted to him. He doesn't inspire any rituals, and the people bid him no sacrifice besides using the strength he granted them to take what they want from life and to cleave the skulls of their enemies. Crom does not care to share his divine powers with mortals, thus, he does not send avatars into the world to meddle with the affairs of men. It is enough that he breathed life into mortals when they are born. Some claim that the voice of Crom can be heard in the harsh winter winds of Cimmeria. "Crom was their chief, and he lived on a great mountain, whence he sent forth dooms and death. It was useless to call on Crom, because he was a gloomy, savage god, and he hated weaklings. But he gave a man courage at birth, and the will and might to kill his enemies, which, in the Cimmerian's mind, was all any god should be expected to do."
