Greyhawk Action! |
Chaotic Neutral
Dalt is the somewhat obsessed Suel god of locks and lock picking, and by extension of craft, science, and perfection at any cost. He appears as an old man with ragged white hair. One moment he is designing the perfect lock to bind all power in the world, the next he is martyring himself to free prisoners and the oppressed. His symbol is a locked door with a skeleton key under it.
Dalt (DAHLT) was forgotten for many years while he sought to free his brother Vatun; he is once again recognized as a god. First re-discovered by the Suloise people in the southeast, his embrace of new solutions and technology has spread his cult thinly across the Flanaess.
He talks with other gods (except Telchur) in order to solicit help in his quest, and more recently to repay debts for assistance rendered. Dalt is shown as an old man with wild white hair and piercing eyes or as a red-haired young thief.
Confront obstacles from different angles until a solution presents itself.
Dalt is constantly trying to build a better mousetrap while being the better mouse. His name is used to bless fortresses, prisons, and chests of valuables, as well as the construction of new homes and tools. His churches tend to be a mix of clerics who lock things and those who open them, each side seeing the need for the other.
Clerics of Dalt are much like their god, tinkering in workshops, building locks, traps and devices, then turning around and trying to figure a way to undo their own work. Lately this has developed into an ambition to lock down the secrets of the universe, while finding fault in other Daltist's theories. They teach their building skills to artificers and locksmiths, while training aspiring thieves and spies in the locksmith arts. They firmly believe in guarding valuables, and liberating goods from those who don't deserve to own them. They like to wander about cities and dungeons, looking for situations that would challenge their skills.
