Dwarves

Back to Races
==Description==
Do dwarves really need a description? Short, (though not as short as a halfling) stocky, and rambunctious, though they have enough prickly honor and stubbornness to choke a lawyer to death. Beyond first impressions, they are quite excellent smiths and are relatively good with the mechanical.

==Culture/History==
Dwarves live in the underground of the Jotgar Mountains, being the dwarviest of dwarves and making sure their beard outdoes that of their neighbor by doing dwarvy things like mining, drinking, and feasting. When it comes to it though, only the absolute dwarviest get on the front lines to fight the hated drow (who are even worse than elves because they have the gall to think they could live underground like a dwarf. As if!).
