Grundinnar is one of Torag's many sons and is the dwarven god of friendship and loyalty. He is experienced at breaking up fights over his sister Bolka and has thus developed quite a strong sense of diplomacy. He uses this skill to end feuds, encourage neighborly conduct among his followers, and ensure that dwarves remember friends they have not seen in many years.1

In that spirit of friendship, dwarves who make friends with members of other ancestries often give them with small ornamental hammers in his honor.2 His name is also generally invoked when followers were in the midst of building new peaceful relationships with others.3

Worshippers

In the Mwangi Expanse, the Mbe'ke dwarves place Grundinnar almost as high as Torag himself in the pantheon, seeing him as responsible for the peace that the Mbe'ke were able to establish with the nearby dragons.4
