Ancient mummifed skeletons sustaining themselves through the USE of mighty magics,
these beings are able to USE spells twice as fast as mortal spell casters. <link to notes about spellcasting in Lankhmar>
They each carry a double-strengh staff of withering.
These gods appear only when their city is threatened with grave danger. <link -> CA0>
When the problem is solved, they CAST about the city wreaking havoc as a reminder that they are not to be called on too often.
They inhabit one large temple at the end of the Street of the Gods.

The temple is a giant double-roomed structure with a set of 13 crypts underneath that thold the "gods"; the temple has no clerics.
When worshipers {wish} a favor from the gods, they toss gifts into the door and hope for the best.
The material is never there an hour later.

NOTE: The gods of Lankhmar are open to much free interpretation by the DM.
There is a special difference between the gods of Lankhmar,
the oldest city of Nehwon,
and the gods "in" Lankhmar.
The gods in Lankhmar are those of the many religions in the many temples lining the Street of the Gods.
Some are powerful, some are weak, and their fortunes change with the quantity && quality of their worshipers, who are a fickle lot.
Though most Lankhmarts worship at one or another of the temples on the Street of the Gods,
all secretly believe in and fear the gods of Lankhmar,
who protect the city so that worship may continue.
As long as this is the case,
the gods of Lankhmar are indifferent to the existence of the gods in Lankhmar.
