Religion Enki
Enki is the god of boundless knowledge and wisdom, lord of the waters, creator of the invisible currents of magical energy that permeate our world. The power of Enki breathed magic into the things that surround us. He taught mages to enchant items, to use staves and wands. Enki created the alphabet, writing, and speech -- he is the father of all civilization and culture. Followers of his cult depict Enki as a bearded water-spirit with a fish's tail. Enki's sacred number and secret ideogram is the number 40. Enki is the patron of the race of deep gnomes, the svirfnebli, and has long taught them the secrets of item magic.
Rumor has it that somewhere deep within the High Tower of Sorcery there is a hidden altar of Enki...
