Solumde, Goddess of Lava and the Core.
Zicmagar calls on Solumde, an immortal god, to look over the underground because he had enough to take care of as is. Solumde agrees to this. She makes the underground to what she believes is what it should be, with much minerals, ores and lava. She believes the lava will heat the world from below, and provide light to those underground. Solumde makes each mineral and ore special. A different shape for each one.
Solumde was worshiped by many races, but most were dwarves. They gave her many offerings, and even tried to avoid lava because they believed it was a bad omen from Solumde herself.
Solumde was neutral in everything that happened in Mirugan. She believed she did enough by providing the ores and minerals. So whenever a mortal prayed for her help in a war, she would help miners find the ores that she has made.
Side note
This is my view on Solumde. I tried my best, I even went through a few trial and error pieces of work. I tried to make this fit into the server's lore. I don't do well on direct topics such as this one, so if it needs work, let me know politely please.

I think this is good. Do more. Lots more. Also from what I can see, it conforms to server lore almost perfectly.

I think the basics of the idea is good, but I don't think "high priest" is good enough. Solumde has to be an independant God even if she did help Zicmagar with the greening of Mirugan.

Wait, Solumde's a female? Then why isn't it "goddess"? Anyway good writing. Hope you write more and longer ones in the near future..

I feel like Zicamgar could easily handle looking after the underground however I really like the idea of a humble beginnings as a high priest. Maybe she could earn her ascension somehow? Other than that good work It's nice to see some more writing about the gods.
Edit: What Orman says is true she does need to be independent. Maybe she could have been granted ascension to assist Zicamgar after preforming some great act of piety. After serving at his side for some time she could have fallen deeply in love with him only to become heart broken when she realizes that his love for Mirugan consumes his heart entirely and he cannot return her feelings. In her grief she descends into the earth where she devotes herself to creating a world that she can love as Zicamgar loves his.

Dude-Gods can't be created or destroyed, they are enternal, so the high preist thing can't work.

I'll try to think of something. I just did that mainly as a filler, unless it did work. And sirv, i forgot to change it when I started writing it. |

Not a bad start, but I am with Orman on the nixing of the "high preistess" comment.

So whenever a mortal prayed for her help in a war, she would help miners find the ores that she has made. Xray :b |
