Abandoned by their cousins, the surface dwarves, hryngars were saved by Droskar, who taught them to work hard and give no quarter. Now, that hardness is the sword and shield by which the hryngar rule their kingdoms. The forgepriests proselytize Droskar's teachings and punish heretics for any defiance. Hryngars descend from dwarves who did not undertake the Quest for Sky and remained denizens of the Darklands. Most now worship Droskar, god of toil. Upworlder Prejudice Many upworlders' only exp

Abilities

Light Blindness — When first exposed to bright light, the monster is Blinded until the end of its next turn. After this exposure, light doesn't blind the monster again until after it spends 1 hour in darkness. However, as long as the monster is in an area of bright light, it's Dazzled.

Toil is Strength (misfortune) —

Hammerfall — The forgepriest tosses their hammer up to 30 feet. Where the hammer lands, molten metal erupts from the ground in a 10-foot burst{10 foot radius} dealing 6d8 fire damage to creatures in the area (DC 21 Reflex save). Creatures who critically fail also take 1d8 persistent fire damage. The forgepriest can't use Hammerfall again for 1d4 rounds.
