Dark Legacy :: manual races Gray Dwarf
Gray Dwarf
Surly and emaciated evil natured dwarves.
Gray dwarves are physically the closest to their mountain dwarfkin of all the
dwarves, yet their seclusion in the depths of the mountains has changed them
nevertheless. Although as strong and sturdy as their cousins, gray dwarves have
larger eyes to compensate for the darkness and their skin and hair are much
paler. To survive the harsh elements of their environment they have also
developed a certain amount of resistance to magic and poison, owing to the
abundance of magical creatures that live there and the large amount of toxic
fumes that vent from the earth. It is also said by their cousins that gray
dwarves are mentally unstable from living so deep the in earth, surrounded
constantly by darkness and terrible creatures. But for a large part this is
fueled by the animosity with which they regard the gray dwarves, ever since
their exile so many years ago. Although not quite as industrious as their
cousins, gray dwarves have built a few strongholds in the mountain depths and
they delve for gems and ore like other dwarves.
