He urges his followers to travel the world and learn of the peoples and places that have long been shunned by dwarf society.
His holy symbol is an upright mace in front of a fur-trimmed leather boot.
Worshipers
Marthammor's clergy are known as the volamtar ("blazers of fresh trails"). They represent one of the most widely recognized dwarven churches of the surface world, particularly in the North. Volamtar mark wilderness trails near dwarven strongholds to make the path of those that might follow from the clanholds easier. They patrol trade routes and game trails between human and dwarven enclaves, healing the injured and clearing these areas of dangerous predators.
Relationships
Other members of the dwarven pantheon see Marthammor's behaviour as 'antics' and hope his interest in the world above will soon pass. Moradin is grateful that at least his youngest son is more disciplined than Dugmaren. Dugmaren is one of Marthammor's greatest friends.
He hates the gods of orcs, goblins and giants and holds special enmity for the hill giant god Grolantor.
