 Dwarves are a people of deep roots and enduring traditions. To them, the world is best understood not through fleeting impressions but through patient observation, careful thought, and lessons handed down through generations. Their wisdom is not abstract philosophy, but a practical knowledge born of stone, steel, and the unyielding challenges of life beneath the mountains. Every Dwarf grows up surrounded by the weight of their ancestors’ choices and the responsibility to add something lasting to that legacy. Dwarves are a people of deep roots and enduring traditions.

-Physically, Dwarves are renowned for their strength and resilience. Though rarely tall, their compact builds are dense with muscle, their endurance unmatched in the mines, workshops, and battlefields where they thrive. They are masters of toil who value honest labour, and their crafts---whether weapons, tools, or architecture---are celebrated for their sturdiness and longevity.

 A Dwarf’s presence inspires trust: their word is their bond, their loyalty fierce, and their communities tightly woven by oaths and obligations. They are not always quick to laughter or easy to befriend, but when a Dwarf calls someone ally or kin, that bond runs as deep as bedrock. A Dwarf’s presence inspires trust: their word is their bond, their loyalty fierce, and their communities tightly woven by oaths and obligations.

-For all their stoicism, Dwarves are not humourless. They value feasts, song, and the warmth of a hearth shared with companions. To live as a Dwarf is to balance gravity with joy, discipline with revelry, and tradition with the slow but steady forging of new paths. They are a people who weather centuries as mountains do storms — scarred, perhaps, but standing strong, unbroken, and unbowed.+For all their stoicism, Dwarves are not humourless.
