Garl Glittergold

Garl Glittergold is the patron deity of gnomes in many campaign settings of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, including the game's default pantheon of deities. Garl was created by James M. Ward for the Deities and Demigods Cyclopedia (1980).

The god's portfolio includes luck, trickery, and others. He is the arch enemy of kobolds and their patron deity Kurtulmak. According to legend, Garl collapsed the cave-system hall of Kurtulmak, while the kobold deity was hosting Asmodeus.

In many campaign settings, the gnome pantheon of gods consists of the leader, Garl Glittergold, as well as Baervan Wildwanderer, Baravar Cloakshadow, Flandal Steelskin, Gaerdal Ironhand, Nebelun, Segojan Earthcaller, and Urdlen.

Garl lives in the gnomish realm of the Golden Hills on the plane of Bytopia.

Garl's clerics wear war helms and gold belts and are called "Glitterbrights". His holy day is the new moon and he is worshipped in cave halls. Gold is sacrificed to him monthly.
