huh, I always thought that he had a pick in his hand, whats up with that?

Oh shit, it was a pick, wasn't it...
Can't believe I forgot that.
But yeah, he wields a pick in his beard to represent industry and labor.

You're welcome.

Armok was the greatest Engineer of all dwarfdom, crafting mechanisms of such complexity that they can forge new worlds, spinning history into each with mechanical precision before releasing them into the cosmos to be experienced.

He isnt a dwarf...  It's just this great big beard.  Theres nothing under the beard, its just a big magic beard.  All the stuff hes supposed to have done he still did, but he didnt need arms or tools, for he is the uber-beard, beardfather, and is just awesome that way.

So, Armok is Tarn?

Armok is not a dwarf. Rather, he is a disembodied arm that is currently in peak condition.

[Scruffy]

A (stark raving mad) bearded anvil.

Seeing how demons often take positions of power in civilizations, I imagine Armok as a demon. I can't imagine him/her/it as some form of Dwarf.

Armok is the creator god of DF, that never makes itself known. Never directly appears in a pantheon, never receives praise from anyone.

Well... Except maybe when an adventure begins, or the Earth is struck. But those tales are well known enough.

The power to delete and reforge the world far exceeds a demon's ability to spit webs.

Armok is obviously the player. The player chooses what the world will be like. The player can magically control doors and sees everything (usually). And every adventurer is Armok incarnate. See the legends, it says something like "divine ancestry".

Only if you start as a demigod. For peasants-to-legends, history tells us that they were guided by forces unknown.

[Mimodo]

Armok IS the very image of dwarven perfection. He is a powerful, and intimidating being, demanding of awe and respect. When you think of dwarven power, you think of Armok himself. When you see a dwarven smith hard at work, you are seeing a little bit of Armok in him. When you see a dwarven miner, Armok is guiding the pick, supplying the miner with his power. When you see an axelord behead a goblin, that was Armok, his very essence embodied in a dwarf

[Noobazzah]

well, the unknown forces also refers to armok .

[Loud Whispers]

-We don't even know if Armok is a Dwarf. We know Armok is the God of blood that is behind every world gen and possibly every fort. That's about it.
