Dwarves are stout, bearded demihumans, about 4’ tall and weighing about 150 pounds. Dwarves typically live underground and love fine craftsmanship, gold, hearty food, and strong drink.

After Reaching 9th Level
A dwarf has the option of creating an underground stronghold that will attract dwarves from far and wide. Dwarves usually live in clans, so dwarves of the character’s clan will be attracted to live under their roof. Dwarves from other clans will generally be friendly and clans may collaborate in times of war or disaster.
A dwarf ruler may only hire dwarven mercenaries. Specialists and retainers of any race may be hired.
