| Notes | ||
| Many priests of Vergadain are multi-classes fighter/thieves Priests of Vergadain are on good terms with priests of Abbathor (at least the best terms of all the other dwarven gods), and have a similar set of powers. Vergadain encourages his worshippers to live to the fullest extent of their means, temples of Vergadain are lavishly decorated, and frequently in search of new sources of wealth Vergadain stops short of endorsing thievery from dwarves (although other races are fair game), but his priests and worshippers do their utmost to wind up on the top of every deal, including some means that would be considered less than ethical |
