The Priest Thuhr

A dwarven thuhr

The Priest Thuhr is one of the seven traditional dwarven thuhr: institutions of kinship and obligation that bind dwarven society together across clan and kingdom. In dwarven tradition, the Priest Thuhr is associated with Fanrukel, the Priest among the Bahrâzel.

In the rite of name-taking at the Heart of the Mountain, an adult dwarf receives both a name and a thuhr. The thuhr are a combination of guild, mentorship, secret society, and found family, and a dwarf’s ties to thuhr may be as central—or as incidental—as their ties to clan.
