Grodeg was the High Priest of Belar and leader of the Bear-Cult. Nearly seven feet tall, with a long gray beard and bristling black eyebrows. Grodeg achieved great influence by involving Queen Islena in the Cult's business. Eventually she grew tired of his bullying and exiled him to the military. He received a serious head injury at the Battle of Thull Mardu. Coupled with the shock of learning that UL was the father of gods, Grodeg went mad and reverted to a childish mindset.
