Dwarf

Bound by clan, tradition, and an unshakable devotion to craftsmanship, Dwarves have carved enduring kingdoms beneath the mountains where honor is measured by the legacy one leaves behind.

Culture & Society

Dwarves of this realm are widely known to be excellent crafters, highly secretive, & very clan oriented.  While there is a sense of racial unity amongst all dwarves of the realm, there is also a fierce competitive streak between clans.  This competitive nature is typically friendly; although it has been known to spawn the occasional grudge between individuals or clans. 

There is also a strong belief among the dwarven race that they are the chosen of the gods, that they were the first race to walk the realm.  They base this belief upon the similarities drawn between Valak, “The World Forger,” and their own characteristics.  Dwarven legend says that the first dwarves were created by the god to aid in his labors to create the world.
