Dwarf
Description
What this people is, and the time it is given.
Dwarves love to hoard gold and drink beer in the company of other dwarves. Their nature is somewhat rough and touchy, and they can turn violent over matters that seem trivial to other peoples. Small but sturdy, and famous for their beards, dwarves favor the depths of the earth, where they mine metal and precious stones. Although generally warm and open in private, dwarven society imposes a strict regimen of labor and military training on its members.
