Deep Dwarf challenge

I know the thread title may seem like an oxymoron; but probably you can guess in which direction the post is going to head. :)

I challenge you to play, and win or at least be best at, a Deep Dwarf (number of runes is absolutely up to you), obeying the following rules:
1) Makhleb, Elyvilon, Yredelemnul, Trog, Jiyva, Nemelex Xobeh and The Shining One are not allowed.
2) The spells Vampiric Draining and Borgnjor's Revivication are not allowed.
3) Vampric weapons of any type (branded, randart) are not allowed.
4) Any item with the "Spirit" property (cap or amulet or shield) is not allowed.

I'm definitely going to give this a try myself; my build of choice will be, for the beginning, DDSu of Sif.

Re: Deep Dwarf challenge

Zin still allows using staff of channeling + guardian spirit! Also you won't get excommunicated if you use Revivication. :P

Is Jiyva allowed?

Oh! No, thanks for pointing that one out, hehehe. ;) Edited in. Also Nemelex.

Re: Deep Dwarf challenge

Completed the task! While it took some months and a long break from deep dwarves, I managed it with a DDHu*Chei (and not DDSu*Sif). Here's the YAVP: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=4666

I'd expect nothing less from a robot.
