Dwarves Dwarves are a short, husky race and typically have dark hair and eyes. They live and work underground often being skilled miners. Dwarves naturally love gems and precious metals especially gold and enjoy drinking ale and mead. Because of their size, Dwarves do not often ride horses and are usually suspicious of the large creatures. Elves Elves are shorter and more slender than humans and come in five types Aquatic, Gray, High, Wood, and Dark.
High Elves are the most common.
All Elves are taught to use a sword and bow from an early age and have the ability to see short distances in low light conditions such as at night with the light of the stars. Another interesting trait of Elves is their ability to resist most attempts to magically put them to sleep or charm them. Another noticeable difference is their very large noses and white hair. They share the Dwarves love for gems and are very skilled at polishing and cutting these precious items. Gnomes are also known to live underground but are more fond of the surface than Dwarves.
