Dwarves cherish the stalwart and firm nature or rock and earth. Dwarven Clerics, in particular, derive their power from the earth and the powers that organized it. They revere the symbolic steadfastness and stability of stone, while still encouraging the inventiveness of the dwarven heart. They possess the power to heal, dispel magic, and turn the Undead. They are resistant to poison, magic, and--like the steady stone--fear nothing. Their deliberate study of the stuff of wisdom has led their people to ally with the Giants and other creatures which were considered too slow to be of value.
