In many campaign settings for the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, Ilneval is the orc deity of warfare.
In many campaign settings, the orcish pantheon of gods consists of the leader Gruumsh, as well as Bahgtru, Ilneval, Luthic, Shargaas, and Yurtrus.
Ilneval lives in the orcish realm of the Nishrek.
Ilneval's priests wear red metal armor and red metal helmets. His holy days are on battle days. Blood and weapons are sacrificed to him both before and after battle.
