warves are relatively short (in Human terms), stocky and powerfully built creatures. Long lived and extremely sturdy, they are known equally as well for their hardiness as for their cantankerous personalities. Their thick, stout frames lend them poor dexterity, but high strength and stamina. This race has produced some of the most renowned fighters. Dwarves possess the inherent ability to see in the dark with infravision.

Dwarves average from four foot five inches and five feet tall, with dusky complexions and thick, furry torsos and limbs. Both men and women proudly wear and take pride in their beards.
