With regard the craft skills associated with Lodril, without overly enhancing a minor deity, (in as far as Prax (Agimori) & Caladraland) how about specialising in crafts directly relating to volcanic substances, eg Enchant Volcanic glass, obsidian weapons crafting, pumice rafts perhaps. How about a little restricted use of alchemy with volcanic sulfur to emulate the volcanic bombs that volcanoes sometimes produce (actually stone cooling around hot gases in eruptions if i remember my little geology -- any correction or further details on volcanic substances or effects gladly welcomed.)
I don't think anything approaching masonry is applicable but I do like the idea of holy sites with brooding dark statues of smoky black glass reflecting fumeroles glowing in the depths of volcanic vents etc.
Does any one have any ideas about how the Agimori go about lodril worship in Prax & the wastes? ( if enough worshippers got enough points of summon lodril would that create a new volcanoe -- hmm not if Sandy thinks gnomes in seige situations are too upsetting.)
I once received a letter in the days of snail mail from someone at Chaosium in reply to the same query on allied spirits(I forget who, Sandy I think) confirming that it is an awakened fire, although I like the idea of awakened salamanders even if it is a little anti social. However the awakened fire does make shuttered lanterns and safety lights etc extremely valuable to Lodril priests!
I love the Pottery idea.
By the way can anyone give me a reference to Gagarthi & my apologies for asking twice but it happened about the time of the digests erratic behaviour (this is not a slur on Loren's sterling achievements!) did anyone have any ideas / sources on the Winter's ruin in the dead place?
