Skaldi, The Stone-Binder

Alignment: Good
Domain: Earth
Portfolio: Runes, Epic Poems
Symbol: The three runic tools, in order, in the back is the Book of Runes, the First Edda, followed by the Crafting Hammer, which itself is covered in runes of crafting, and finally the chisels, which can't be carved with runes, crossed in the front.
Description: Skaldi is a benevolent god of Earth, who knows the deep places of the world and where the great treasures are held in the ground. He is a master rune-crafter, able to teach the runic lore to anyone who wishes, for a price of course. The price varies from one person to another, so don't try to figure yours out. The only other beings that are masters of the Runes are Skaldi's race, the Dwarves.
Commands:
1) Be adventurous, the world is a place of mystery, and you should try to explore it at least once.
2) Never share the Runic Knowlege for free, it is a knowlege that should have a price.
3) Go out and find the evils in this world and slay them, for evil is a hinderance of your adventures, and is a goal for all my followers.

Real-World Inspirations: Bargi, the lord of poems in Norse mythology; Mimir, the keeper of the well of knowlege that likewise didn't give his drinks away for free.
