Kraux, god of "savages" and envy
In a world where the civilized races share very few deities in common the comparative religious hemogeny of those races that are considered uncivilized is quite odd. Sure there are outliers like trolls and ogres, but when it comes to the savage races that are the most humanoid in size and appearance they all worship Kraux. Goblins, orcs, drow, kobolds (so long as they have not found a dragon to worship) and many other races all worship this god who is more or less alien to civilized peoples. They all do this not neccessarilly because they were created by him (though some were) but because they all adhere to Kraux's worldview: The other races have taken the best lands for themselves. Those lands ought to be our lands. We ought to have what they have.
The history and details of why goblins and the like feel this way is complicated but the current state of things is simple. The "savages" feel slighted and want to take back what they believe is rightfully theirs, violently. Few gods will aid these races in this goal, but Kraux will, and does so more than willingly. That is why so many of these races worship Kraux.
