Hello,

One or two years ago, i managed to find a list of the dwarven clans in rhe Realms but i lost the link to the website. Does anybody know where i could find it? It might even be in Candlekeep but i can't find it.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Oh, and most (in)famous of all... clan Duergar (original from Barakuir, Deep Shanatar)

Also Ironhelm (dwarven scholar Bryth Tolar of Clan Ironhelm in Mirabar, Wyrmskull Throne p54)

And the Iron House of Tethyamar

Don't forget the small but noteworthy Clan Mealairkyn from Undermountain: The Lost Level.

Don't forget the legendary Clan Ironstar.

Reads the third post...

In addition to the list, you have the Brightblade clan of Daggerdale. They have a small abandoned hold near Dagger Falls, and the main clanhall is futher south in Anathar's Dell.

Northern Clans

Arnskull
Battlehammer
Blackbanner
Bucklebar
Darkfell
Deepaxe
Deepdelve
Eaglecleft
Foehammer
Gallowglar
Hillsafar
Horn
Jundeth
Narlagh
Orothiar
Quarrymaster
Rockfist
Stoneshoulder
Stoneshield
Trueforger
Watchever
Worldthrone
Wyrmslayer
Yund

Southern Clans

Belindorn
Bladebite
Crownshield
Gemscepter
Ghalkin
Goldthumb
Gordrivver
Malthin
Mastemyr
Sorndar
Talnoth
Undurr
Velm
Zord

Those are Clan names as listed in Dwarves Deep. I must also list Ironstar for they are believed extinct. There are maybe more that are extinct and their names and lore are Forgotten. I think I read somewhere that dwarves sometimes guard their clan names as to avoid drawing attention to their homelands unless it is an honorable cause.

For a number of years I've been putting together a (hopefully) complete list of dwarven names, including clan and house names. It's sort of lain fallow for a while, since I got a job and didn't have the endless amount of free time as I did when I was unemployed.

I offered to share it with the Keep, and let Alaundo host it, much like the list of elven names. I'm not sure I heard back from him, but I'd still be happy to have CK host it. It's incomplete, but not by a whole lot.

While we wait on that, the bare-bones list of clans comes from FR 11 Dwarves Deep. Check that book, if you have it.
