LaForge
LaForge - Engineering God[edit]
Taken from The Great Almanac of the Gods:
In time long gone, LaForge was a mortal gnome. He was elevated to godhood for his skills as an engineer. His knowledge and abilities surpassed that of most mortals, and many of the gods desired his skills to be among their own ranks. So he was elevated to godhood and oversees engineers and masters of science and technologies. His architectural knowledge influenced the creation of many great monuments and cities, though through war and conflict many have fallen into ruin, and LaForge has withdrawn his oversight from most such creations.
Often fond of neutrality, he will abandon that position for the sake of progress and new invention. Because of the dual nature of destruction and creation in war, LaForge both loves and hates it. It destroys great works of architecture yet drives mortals to produce more innovative and amazing weapons and tools. He is the patron of technology, production, and collaboration.
To follow LaForge is to create and engineer items and concepts that stretch the concept of the world and advance the knowledge of science.
