Book of Genesis:
Armok, in his eternal wisdom, made a thousand worlds a thousand times. In the 7th day of creation, Armok stopped. And in his eternal helm, he nodded. And it was good.
And lo, in the times before time, Armok smiled at his creation. Through many hardships, he had crafted a land to call his own. Unbeknownst to him cometh a dark force from the nether, Hiddenifious Funturio Stuffaria, self proclaimed lord of the dark denizens. The abominations sought chaos and destruction in the form of twisted tentacles and flying excrement, and laughed at Armok's fertile land.
Armok smiled, and said unto himself "And so, Hiddenifious, you present me a worthy battle that I may partake in. The slaughter shall be joyous, and you will be immortalised forever." And thus he bore the titans, first of Armok's living creations, to combat this new threat. The battle lasted millennia; many demons fell to the titans, themselves suffering many casualties. The land was ravaged and many titans grew unstable from the millennia of battle they had endured. Armok felt the hidden presence of Hiddenifious, gleefully twisting these weary titans, making them dangerous and insane.
On the final days of the battle, Armok declared his weariness of this battle, and using the sacred Divine Blue, crafted hundreds, maybe thousands of enchanted blades with his own strong will. Hiddenifious, worried by this development, pulled his forces back to the underworld from which they had spawned. Hoping that the fortresses they had created from the Dark Rock would protect them from the divine ones wrath. Infuriated by their introduction of this foreign substance onto his land, Armok cast the blades into the fortresses themselves, sealing them forever.
Years passed as the titans and Armok sought to rebuild the world, their twisted and insane brethren still wandered the land, forests and meadows had been destroyed, oceans had been boiled. Over the year, Armok gathered the twisted titans, and sealed them as under the earth as guardians of the deep. Oceans of magma were formed, the blood of the divine one himself, in order to keep secret the denizens that lay beneath. As further protection, Armok would seal any potential weak points with the Divine Blue metal in the shape of tubes. Just as the Dark Rock could not be manipulated by his own will, the forces of Hiddenifious could not manipulate the Divine Blue.
And lo, he proclaimed to the Titans: "Hear me, you who are still of mind. Your brethren will be sealed beneath, in the very womb of my world, and shall be forgotten. I shall not interfere with the actions of this land again, yet I shall create new peoples whom shall battle each other, and offer a sacrifice of blood. The frail Humans, whose flesh shall age quicker than most, the elegant Elves; who shall value the land above all else, and consume the flesh of other because of this. The Goblins; a savage race whom shall be at odds with all others, The Kobolds; who value materials above life. And finally, my favoured children, the Dwarves; whom shall be guided by my divine servants to compensate for their lack of intelligence."
As one the Titans let loose a cry: "But Master, what shall we do about the damage? Will you not lend us your divine grace to help us recover?"
With a blink, Armok summoned into existence a being. Green and tall, with bulbous eyes and a wide grin. "My servant, The Great Toad, shall oversee future repairs and improvements. By his blessing shall these lands be granted more life."
The Titans rejoiced, and yet held their heads high once more: "And what now of you, our master?"
To which Armok replied: "And now, I shall retreat to the Twelfth Bay of the void, where my servant of Three Toes shall entertain me with stories of the races and their actions." And with that, Armok was gone. The first of his five races awoke to the world, bleary eyed and primitive.
The Great Toad watched the event, and simply muttered: "Blood. For the Blood God." before croaking."
The divine servants:
Some of these Divine have abandoned Armok, and decided to worship gods created in their minds. Gods and beings such as Jehovah, Allah, the Jade Emperor, and many others have been thought of and worshipped by countless mislead Divine ones. Many more fail to carry out their main duty: to create and destroy worlds, to create and destroy their own world, and to lead the dwarves of their created worlds to do the same. Thus the titans were enraged, and did battle with these false pretenders. The great servant Toady watched on, changing existence a piece at a time. His plan to fulfil the blood god’s wishes slowly coming to fruition.
Those who bring glory to Armok, carry out their purpose, and show others of the divine the path of blood shall be rewarded in a glorious after life. They will be taken to a heaven of Dwarfhalla! A place filled with deep tunnels dug into the ground, massive adamantine megaprojects, rivers and lakes of magma, and Masterful crafts made from the remains of slaughtered elves. The realm closest to the Twelfth Bay of the void.

This history shall be written in blood, and for every drop laid down in the name of the dwarfs, every drop I say! Every drop laid down in the name of the GREAT GOD ARMOK HIMSELF! Shall be used to wash away the sins of the none believers! And give birth the hero’s who shall come. With Adamantine, Steel, Iron, Silver, Bishtmund bronze and copper, with the very rocks at our feet! We shall smite down all who are under the sway of the daemon, the mutant, the heretic! Forward brothers of Armok! Forward! Into the breach, honour our god with the blood of the dark hordes!
- Rally cry from Karakzon, during the battle of blood and horror in a time before time, during the Strife of founding.
