recruiting dwarfs for the future
"We sons of Grungni may have drunk deep from the bitter waters of misfortune, but we yet survive. Whilst a single Dwarf draws breath, we will fight the evils that assail us, and we will never, ever give up."
The Dwarfs, also called the "Elder Race," (or the Dawi as they call themselves) are one of the oldest and proudest intelligent races, with a great wealth of history and power that stretches back to time immemorial. The heart of the Dwarfen realm,Karaz Ankor as they call it, will always lie within the domains of the Worlds Edge Mountains, the highest mountain range in the world, it is filled with the magnificent halls and holds of the Dwarfen people - a testament to the great feats of engineering and power once wielded by this ancient civilization.
The Dwarf people as a whole are sturdy and strong, brilliant craftsmen and excellent warriors. Above all they pride themselves on their loyalty to each other or those they are indebted to. This strong bond of kinship has ensured that the Dwarfs stand as one of the most unified races in the world.
They are known far and wide as the greatest miners and tunnellers, the ageless halls of Karaz-a-Karak are but one gigantic example of how huge their works can become.The Dwarfs are also highly proficient smiths and craftsmen, capable of producing works far more beautiful than the Elven metalworkers, and hundreds of times more valuable than the trinkets of humans. Proud, honourable and enduring, it is said that the Dwarfs shall weather the horrors and misery of the world until its final bitter end.
The history of the Dwarfs is an enduring one. It stretches from the very creation of this world to its final days. Dwarfs revere their ancestry above all. The tracing of lineage is of the utmost importance to the denizens of each and every Karak. For most, the long history of record keeping stretches back to when bands of Dawi moved north into the Worlds Edge Mountains.
It is said that the Dwarfs, like many other races that have lived upon the world, were created by the benevolent god-like beings known as the Old Ones. Powerful and immensely intelligent beyond mortal standards, it was said that these beings were the ones who seeded the first forms of life upon this otherwise barren planet after using their immense god-like powers to terraform the planet and brought it closer to the sun. There they planted the first seeds of life, and from this life the first Dwarfs were created, and thus the Gods of the Dwarfen Pantheon.
According to Dwarf legends and traditions, these first Dwarfs were carved by time from the rocks of the mountains, birthed by stone itself. Whilst the Dwarfs lived about their earliest days, the Old Ones continued their masterful work, ensuring that this world would be a paradise for all beings. Whether they had a higher purpose for this world or the Dwarfs remains unknown, for none other then the Old Ones knew the full extent of their Great Plan.
