[QUOTE="Dave Blewer, post: 688526, member: 4972"] In my Sundered Sky setting There are racial names for most of the classes Dwarves just call Berserkers Battleragers. Here are some of the ideas from my website: Berserkers Dwarven Battleragers are greatly feared by all who face them. Very few Battleragers survive their ten years out in the world, but the few who do are mightily skilled indeed. Bards The very few Dwarves that are drawn to this profession favour the drums and bagpipes as their chosen instruments. Dwarven society on the whole looks down on Bards as not "useful to society", this does not stop an elite corp of Bards being barracked at Deepsky. This contingent called The Grim Troupe, has been seen supporting the occasional Dwarvish militia actions. Druids Dwarven Druids are very rare indeed, those that do exist are almost all Stoneshepherds, subterranean Druids who care for, and protect the natural caverns within some of the islands. Rangers There are two types of this class, Spelunkers; those who range through the caves and mazes found within the bedrock of some of the larger islands and Wayfinders; Rangers who map and memorise the routes through the void Rogues Every race has it's fair share of Rogues. Dwarvish Rogues fall into two types. The Antiquarians an order who specialise in uncovering and investigating lost Dwarven citadels or Darkhomes and The Distrusted, The Dwarven name for those who follow the more traditional Rogueish pursuits. Sorcerers Dwarven Sorcerers call themselves the Blood They are more common than their Wizard cousins, but are also much more secretive. Wizards These are called Spellsmiths, tasked with creating potent magical items on the enchanted forges of their order. They infuse these items with their own lifeblood. Weapons and armour created by Spellsmiths are rightly thought to be the most potent of their kind. [/QUOTE]
