Dwarf

Dwarves are a race common in a a large amount of fantasy fiction based off of mythological creatures of Norse origin.

Characteristics

Dwarves are generally short and squat humanoids, about 1 to 1.2 meters tall, that are somewhat stronger and more durable than humans and that usually live longer (300 years is fairly common). Dwarves typically live underground, generally acting as miners and metalworkers, generally renound for their skill in craftsmanship. Male Dwarves generally have long beards and, in many depictions, Dwarves have little sexual dimorphism. Typically Dwarvish soldiers are heavily armored infantry armed with battle axes.

In settings where Dwarves are present, they are often the most technologically advanced society.
