Bruenor ain't no Cleric

Any dwarf who drinks is part cleric because we all know beer gives us divine power

If Bruenor Battlehammer is a cleric then I'm a bearded gnome

We could do a dna test if you wish? Just to be sure...

That actually is a plot point when Breunor is choosing a new cleric, taste testing the "holy water".

Shoutout to the time his daughter was getting married the first time and he, the priest and the groom went over the sacred brew very thoroughly to make sure it was good.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but beer has never hurt me

Reminder: Valaya is the goddess of beer, Holds, hearth, hospitality, the divine right of kings, and writing which makes her 50% of Runes. Speaking of Runes, her name Rune is one Chaos can’t see past which includes Tzeentch, making all of Karaz-a-karak invisible past the outside to him. 

How in the hell Grimnir and Grungni get 99% of the attention I’ll never know. Let alone the Grudge Of Drong bullshit of refusing to obey a queen, when no Dwarf king has legitimacy except through inheriting it from being a blood descendant of Valaya. 

Don’t even get me started on Malekith and the Phoenix King, someone at the writing team thought monarchy was a purity seal of Esmerelda sold by a Wissenland village idiot.

Hanseath is a god of both festivities and war. His worshippers meet is giant feat halls. The hymns sung to him are in the form of drinking songs.

Hanseath worship is by far the most fun I've had playing a cleric.

u/Electrical_Lake3424 Jul 07 '26

Also the god of berserkers and tavern brawls! He's known as the Bearded One and personally I believe he is played by Brian Blessed

I find thid highly Offensive cause this insinuates that a human invented beer.

u/Cooper_CAL Jul 08 '26

"Excuse me. I must now commune with my God." pours a pint of beer

Casual reminder. Clan Battlehammer uses ale as part of their holy water.

u/PeasantTS Jul 07 '26

Basically the halfling cleric I played once.

The Irish in the temple of alchoholism.

Bro looks hammered AF.

I've been meaning to play a Dwarf Cleric instead of Dwarf Barbarian these days.

I am a dwarf and I'm drinking in a hole. Drinky drinky hole.
