Dwarves

The Dwarven people are short yet strong and sturdy folk whom many find unattractive or fearful for their strength. Even the Dwarven women in society are feared for their temper that the men rather fight orcs than their own wives. Dwarves Live in Hills and Mountains occasionally living outdoors if an outside mining town. The Dwarven Society is a Laboring one due to the Dwarves ability in an Assortment of crafts including skills in Mechanics. Because of their skill at the Forge many seek Dwarven weapons for it's durability and cunning. Dwarves have been known to be excellent soldiers in battle and their size doesn't matter to them because they can kill as many opponents as a human can. Given their size they aren't very agile or swift but are seen muscular even the women have some strength behind them.

The Dwarves spend most of their time as Adventurer, Miners, Smithy's, or Travelers selling off their goods. Dwarves have been known to have great constitution and are able to keep up with even a human adult making them good runners and couriers through their underground tunnels. The Mountain Dwarf is known for it's Strong fortified tunnels and underground cities. Because of this Dwarven Allies are good to have when in the mountains. They spend most of their days underground mining and working on forges to better strengthen their cities. Most Mountain Dwarves are known to be Warriors and adventurers seeking out Battles to make them well renowned.

  Mountain Dwarves unlike Hill Dwarves have rugged beards and seem to be a bit muscular making them highly tough and strong in battle or working mines. A Mountain Dwarf has many natural enemies such as Goblins, Orcs, and Trolls. This also includes a lot of Monster in the under dark especially Drows. Even thought Mountain Dwarves don't get along with Elves it rather join with an elf to slay a Drow than have to deal with one alone. Because of this the Mountain Dwarves try not to solicitate highly with the Elvin race since they to agree that the only alliance would be with a common enemy. Because of this Trade is minimal and crimes from either race in the other's land is shown little remorse yet a natural enemy is agreement enough to work together.

  A Mountain Dwarf has much strength and even greater prowess in battle most prefer to take Combat Professions or Dual Class as a Soldier and Cleric in order to better serve Klangdon their god whom fights a dead lock battle with a beast from the God War. Mountain Dwarves have an assortment of hair and eye colors and usually have long rugged beards even as young adults. They are seen carrying heavy weapons and seem to fight well with them in battle. Most Mountain Dwarves are Taller than Hill Top Dwarves who range from 4ft but Mountain Dwarves can range as Tall as 5ft.

Quirk: A Mountain Dwarf is a very good Fighter but due to their size may have difficulty against similar size foes or human size foes. Yet opponents who are three times the size of the Dwarf or bigger is going to have trouble getting him so take the size advantage trait.
