What makes a duergar name?

Duergar — gray dwarves of the Underdark — bear names that are dwarven but harder and grimmer than their surface kin: stony consonants and blunt, gloomy endings (Bruldenthar, Hrordin, Krazgrim). Forged by generations of toil, slavery, and grudge, the names sound cold and unyielding. The vibe is severe, industrious, and bitter.

  • 2Pair with a clan name (Grimforge, Steelshadow) for true Underdark flavor.
  • 3Lean on toil and grudge; duergar names sound cold and unyielding.
  • 4Avoid anything cheerful — gray dwarves are bitter and severe.
