This category lists deities in the Greyhawk setting who are dwarven themselves or who have high numbers of dwarven followers, including those who may be duergar or derro.

The dwarven pantheon is sometimes known as the Morndinsamman which is dwarven for "shield brothers on high" or "the high dwarves" and only includes deities who are dwarves. "Although the term Morndinsamman is commonly used to refer to all acknowledged dwarven gods, formal membership in the pantheon is etermined by Moradin."[1] Diirinka and Diinkarazan (both derro) were banished from the Morndinsamman, as was Ladguer (duergar) though he is still a "member-in-exile".[1]

"The composition of the pantheon varies slightly from clan to clan (and even more so from world to world), but the powers presented hereafter are venerated or at least acknowledged in most dwarven settlements."[1]
