Yeah, that was the idea. IIRC one 4E publication said something along the lines of "though he created the dwarves and is often depicted as one, Moradin is a god, not a dwarf". There were also occasional references to atypical representations of gods, such as a minotaur version of Bahamut.
Ooh, you wouldn't happen to know where that last one was mentioned? I am of course a sucker for all things Bahamut, but syncretic trans-racial depictions sound like a super cool concept, and something I might want to draw inspiration from for my Dungeon World game. (I've had some vague notions of a "moon temple" built by minotaurs long ago as a possible adventure location, so an article about how minotaurs could depict and worship a deity like Bahamut would be great reading material.)
Personally, I want an original-to-the-setting deity to win. Would be nice if it was muh queen, but as long as it’s not a returning GH or FR deity I’m happy.
I've lost count of the number of times Bahamut and Tiamat have been in this contest.
