Category:Dwarves

Dwarves are a race of short, stout folk who inhabit the [Iron Hills] as well as the Blue Mountains. They have a love for stone and minerals and a deep dislike for the Elves. They live underground in the mines and in dwarf houses and are also known for their appreciation of ale and cooked meats. Dwarves have randomly selected patronymic names and a variety of different skins, but they all have one thing in common: their rather impressive beards. All dwarves, women and children alike, have beards with which they are born, and it is this that has led to their women often being mistaken for their men. This, in turn, has led to the belief that there are no dwarf women, and that dwarves just spring up from holes in the ground (which is, of course, rediculous).
