Dark Legacy :: manual races Mountain Dwarf
Mountain Dwarf
Mountain dwellers, great fortress builders and miners.
Mountain dwarves are an older race than humans, and their physical
characteristics differ quite a bit. They are short, stocky individuals, with
huge amounts of stamina and strength, though they aren't very dexterous. Most
mountain dwarves become warriors but there are quite a few who pursue a more
divine or magical lifestyle. They are normally a long-lived race, despite their
strong desire for drinking, feasting and a good fight. They are mostly known
for a stubborn attitude, and a general disregard for other races, preferring
their own kind. They are proficient miners and have a love for the riches of
the earth, and build most of their trade upon this. Due to their underground
nature from long centuries of mining, they have the ability to see infravision.
Their height averages from four and a half feet to five feet, with dusky
complexions and thick torsos and limbs.
They are rather hairy, and both men and women wear and take pride in their
beards, which is often used as a symbol of status in their culture. They're the
most technologically advanced race.
