However I am not finding a sun god, I want to use for one of the Delvers to Go character Miriam Suntemple. I think she should be a follower of a sun god.
I really like the clerics and holy warriors capabilities presented in Hand of Asgard as they have some distinct differences based on whichever deity you chose to follow. They also have some really interesting power ups -- advantages and skills.
I really wish they had a book that had similar treatment for Druids, Barbarians, and Scouts. Especially Druids!

No, the Norse didn't really have a sun god. However, the sample character Kamilah (Hall of Judgement p.107) "comes to Noršlond from a land far to the south [...] Her god is strange, a hawk-headed sun deity that nobody’s ever heard of" so there's some precedent that way.
As for additional power ups et al there is Dungeon Fantasy Denizens: Barbarians and DFD: Swashbucklers (with Thieves due soon-ish), as well as Dungeon Fantasy 11: Power-ups obviously.
