Dwarves of Norrath are stout and mighty, and have long been one of Norrath's strongest races. They average 4 feet in height, but their weight can often be greater than it appears. They have large noses and ears. Dwarves take great pride in their hair, often adopting ancient styles worn by their ancestors. Their beards are typically bushy and full; even the females sometimes wear light beards. Dwarves often view a beard's fullness as a sign of prestige.
Background
The Dwarves are a short, sturdy people created by Brell Serilis. Stout and strong, this race is known for its bravery and sense of honor - though not particularly for its intellect. Dwarves make the most faithful of friends and, should the situation require it, the most tenacious of enemies. Dwarves possess an abiding love for stone and earth, having carved their home city of Kaladim deep into the dense rock of the Butcherblick Mountains. Kaladim's architecture showed the pride dwarven artisans take in their work: clean, elaborately carved stones were used to construct the practical yet ornate buildings within the city. Similarly, dwarven armor and weaponry is well known for its high quality and durability; it is often etched with extravagant designs and runes. Considered excellent miners, dwarves love to harvest rare and precious gems from the depths of the earth. In honor of their ancestral homeland, many dwarves mark their faces with symbols of their sacred earth.
Faith
Dwarves are devoted to their creator, Brell. No matter how long his direct influence has been absent from their lives, their faith will not waver.
