Naming a duergar rogue
A duergar rogue carries duergar naming tradition into the rogue's calling. Duergar names are dwarven names turned grim and lightless — the same hard consonants, but stripped of warmth, favouring ash, grey, and chain imagery. A rogue — a quick-fingered survivor of the urban underworld — tends toward slick names or aliases — the real one is rarely the one they answer to. Lean into that flavour when you pick from the names above, and pair the result with a surname or epithet that fits the class.
