Grey Dwarf
Once a proud race of Dwarves, years of slavery to Mind Flayers chiseled any honor or warmth from them, as the years in the Underdark greyed their skin. They are now a race of slavers, scavenging any material whether organic, mineral, or sentient, from the depths of the Underdark. Most of them have skin of ashen grey, their hair is usually white, and are almost always bald including females. After generations of breathing in the air of the Underdark, the Duergar, Underdark Dwarves or Grey Dwarves seem to have absorbed some of its magic allowing them to enlarge themselves into large hulking warriors for a short time or slip away into the darkness if the need arises.

Duergar Resilience: You have advantage on saving throws against illusions and against being charmed or paralyzed. Sunlight Sensitivity: You have disadvantage on Attack rolls and Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight when you, the target of your attack, or whatever you are trying to perceive is in direct sunlight. Superior Darkvision: You can see in dim light within 120 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of grey.
