Armok is the name of the mythical god in Dwarf Fortress, of whom the game is loosely based around, if only in Lore. Armok is also the god of Template:L in the world of Dwarf Fortress. However, there are no records of dwarf's naming Armok as their deity.

Name Origin

The name of the Dwarven God comes from the variable "arm_ok", which is from Template:L's fantasy game, Dragslay (an early precursor of Template:L). The variable was used to count the number of arms left, for inventory purposes. (Source)
