awsome 

Requires attunement by a dwarf it never says that the dwarf has to be the one using it so you could have a dwarf Monk or minister priests paladin whatever a tune it to you to your character of A different race rules of written says it has to be attuned by a dwarf never says that it has to be the one wearing it or using it

You have to have the thing equipped to attune to it. So no dice here, good try though.

Don't be afraid to remove the attunement by a dwarf requirement, this thing is so much fun and should be used by anyone that's willing to attune

This is a bizarre take, it's easier to just homebrew off the Dwarven recquirement.

I am unclear on what a giant is. Examples, 1) monster type = giant, 2) description contains giant (such as a giant elk), 3) monster name contains giant (such as storm giant), 4) empyrean (one of the true giants)

This is literally Thor’s Mjolnir from the Marvel Movies

 

  This has been around far longer than the Marvel movies. It's at east 3.5 old I'm sure.

Thor from the Marvel Movies has been around longer than D&D, having been created as a comic book character in August 1962. D&D hit shelves in 1974. And Thor and Mjolnir have been around far longer than either, being a god from Norse mythology dating back at least to the early centuries A.D.. Thor is actually probably older than this, but we don't know anything about the Germanic peoples before the Romans encountered them.

 though the idea of it coming back only came from the marvel comics.

This is Mjölnir, Marvel has nothing to do with Norse Mythology.

I would, the belt gives you dwarven features as best it can- might aswell help it out right ;)?

 Dwarven features doesn't make you a dwarf

 Even if a dwarf attuned it and you used it, it would return to the dwarfs hand, and you would treat it as a normal weapon.  Attunement only works for the actual attuned player, not for anyone else.

Here's a dirty trick: show your players this item's art when describing loot, and watch them get all excited and then confused when they realize they can barely lift the hammer as a DC 10 History check reveals that it's a purely ceremonial weapon

Thor and Mjolnir have been around a lot longer than D&D and Marvel

Now, the 2024 version allows it to attune to someone attuned to a Belt of Dwarvenkind!!

Quote from JOwenR2 >>

Is there an actual rule that by Attuning the Belt of Dwarvenkind  you can also then Attune the Dwarven Thrower? I'm not finding it.

 

In the DMG (not DndBeyond) on page 256, the item says "(Requires Attunement by a Dwarf or a Creature Attuned to a Belt of Dwarvenkind)"

No idea why it's not on DndBeyond, but probably an oversight.

But not older than Nordic mythology

So it's 1d8 one handed, 1d10 two handed, 2d8 thrown, 3d8 thrown at a giant?

 No, I think it'd actually be 4d8, because its 1d8 bludgeoning from the hammer, 1d8 force damage from throwing, and then the ADDITIONAL 2d8 force damage when throwing at a giant.

Notice that it says "OR 2d8 Force damage if the target is a Giant." So it would be indeed 2d8 when thrown, or 3d8 when thrown against a Giant.

Thor and Mjölnir have been around a heck of a lot longer than D&D or the Marvel movies.
