Avatar Descriptions
Hiddukel prefers to appear as an obese man with cold, beady eyes
and an oily smile. He drapes his expansive girth with the finest
brocade and his knuckles are knobbed with false gemstones.
Hiddukel avoids physical combat, relying on spells and hired
monster bodyguards.

Intermediate God
24th level Cleric/Wizard
Notes
Hiddukel constantly seeks good bargains, which generally entail
the swapping of a material object for one's spirit. Although he is
calculating and predatory, Hiddukel often takes the guise of a
fawning and fumbling merchant. Those tricked into bargaining with
him generally lose their lives.
Motivations
In the economic havoc after the War of the Lance, Hiddukel
works to gain a choke hold on national economies. He directly
opposes Shinare and, to a lesser extent, Reorx. Hiddukel offers
great rewards to his followers for destroying the priests and
temples of Shinare. Hiddukel, not being much of a fighter, fears
Reorx and will not risk angering him.
Description
Hiddukel, god of ill-gotten wealth and deals, is patron god of Evil
businessmen and dishonest merchants. A cunning deal-maker,
Hiddukel trades in living souls. Some say Hiddukel can even barter
with Takhisis and come out ahead.
Hiddukel controls all ill-gotten wealth, using it to corrupt honest
and greedy men alike. Greed and mischief drive all his transactions.
One of his deals resulted in the creation of the Greystone, an
artifact that wreaked havoc on Krynn.
