Dwarg

Despite their size, dwargs are hardy, strong people. They usually keep to their own, living in isolated clans in the caves and highlands of Thedehame. Dwargish culture highly values tradition, especially in the form of storytelling, and they tend not to write down their records as a matter of principle. Instead, dwargs rely on their communities' oral records for everything from laws to myths and legends. The few who venture outside these secluded cities bring with them a hoard of hidden knowledge, especially in craftsmanship and magic.

Dwargs range in size from around 2 feet to just under 4 feet tall and between 80 and 160 pounds, with a stout build and square facial features. Their thick skin resembles dark, tough earth - typically black, grey, or brown - accented with cracks and ravines that deepen and develop with age, much like the wrinkles of humans and elves.
