Ilneval is the Orc God of War in Dungeons & Dragons. Whilst this may seem redundant at a glance, Ilneval is essentially the Orcish equivalent of Athena, whilst his rival Bahgtru is the Orcish Ares; Ilneval focuses on leadership in battle, strategy, cunning and courage - a god for orcish generals and commanders, not so much the common orc grunt. Whilst Gruumsh doesn't trust Ilneval due to his intelligence, he is useful enough that the One-Eyed God tolerates him for now, especially in their endless battles against the goblinoid gods.

In Mystara, Ilneval is an alias for the orc Immortal Karaash, the patron of humanoids, especially orcs.
History[edit]
Karaash was once a mighty king who lead great hordes of orcs in ravaging and pillaging cities and kingdoms, making him a hero amongst the orcs. He eventually reached Immortality, suprisingly choosing the Sphere of Thought.
Appearance[edit]
Karaash appears as a orc in the prime of his life, wearing a spiked and fanged suit of plate, and carrying his greatsword, and his symbol, at his side.
Personality[edit]
Karaash is a war-leader, stern, uncompromising, and composed, with a fondness for proving his strength in battle. He has noa real allies, though he shares a mutual respect for Halav. He hates Atzanteotl for interfering with his favored races, and Ranivorus for trying to gain the hold over the Krugel Horde.
