In the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) role-playing game, Kavaki, the Ram-Lord is the chief god and creator of all Goliaths to some religious sects of Goliaths.[1] He is a protector and creator deity with a specific focus on competition and tribalism. He is depicted as a large, muscular humanoid with ram horns protruding from his head. It should be noted that, within the Forgotten Realms setting, most Goliaths are nature-worshipers with druids at the center of their faith worship; clerics attending the Goliath pantheon have been evangelizing the general Goliath population.
Publishing history[edit]
Races of Stone (2004)[edit]
Kavaki is the chief of all chieftains; thus the chief offers a prayer to Kavaki every morning. Kavaki is invoked to bless games, bestow honorifics, or bless a campsite; temples to Kavaki are often simple, portable, wooden, and have a ram's skull atop it.
Kavaki is often invoked with superlative comparisons as a form of prayer; an example would be "Kavaki, you are brighter than the sun and stronger than the mountain wind".
