The most uncivilized among the Powers of Wearth, Llerg (LERG) ignores most other Powers, seeing them as too civilized, but has a friendly rivalry with Kord and a hatred for Telchur. He is shown as a strong, shaggy man wearing furs and a fighting girdle or as a great bear, snake, or alligator. These animals are sacred to him, and they are his three holy symbols. He fights with a broadsword or in one of his animal forms and may be the ancestor of the original dire bears, dire alligators, and dire snakes. He is popular among the jungle savages
Be strong so that others respect you. Be fierce like the creatures of the animal world. Humans have lost contact with their inner animal nature - watch and learn how the predator lives, and you will again be as you should be.
Llerg supports barbarians defending their lands against encroaching civilization. Llerg's clerics choose one of his sacred animals as their totem animal. They act as intermediaries when tribes meet, and range far in search of prey when times are lean for their tribe. They bless weapons, warriors, and sites of battle to ensure victory, and in more peaceful times they train young warriors in armed and unarmed combat. Some clerics have been known to have visions and travel to find the meaning of what they have seen.
