From Planes of Law, p. 9: This isn't a complete list of the proxies: There's the Sphinx, a shared proxy of Ra and Osiris; the proxy of the dwarven power Reorx, a blustery dwarf named Flint;

Avatars are fragments of a dieties consciousness, sent down on the world to work the dieites will. According to the Sorcerer's quote, in the Planescape universe, upon Flint's Death and eventual ascension to the Upper planes, Flint was kept from becoming a petitioner or melding with Reorx's home plane. He was in fact, enfused with Reorx's power, becoming a Proxy of Reorx. This makes him Reorx's PR man. he is the face that many see, working will Reorx in the god's name.

However, the Planescape material on DL isn't always reliable and rarely taken as part of Current Standard Continuity--_On Hollowed Ground_ had the DL gods leaving Krynn and trying to expand their followings on the planes, but WoS pretty well torpedoed that notion. Matthew L. Martin, notes that Krynn has been connected to the AD&D cosmology to some degree since "A Stone's Throw Away".
