Tolat, aka Shargash, has his own special Rune (the Shargash Rune). He is a destruction and rebirth deity - which is not quite the same as Fertility and Death. As a celestial deity, Shargash is also associated with the Fire/Sky Rune.

PS. I am not certain how the amazons of Trowjang worship Tolat - but presumably it is either a spirit society or it is a unique divine cult where the amazon emulates the Bride of Tolat (and not actually Tolat/Shargash). I'd hate to see what would happen if an Alkothi Hellman showed up in Trowjang!
