These Dwarves are a dour, serious lot. The Mountain dwarves have made a living from the gut rock of their Mountain fortresses and deep clanholds, mining, smithing and gem cutting. Studious task masters, these Dwarves do, say, worship and act like their cousins in the mountains.

Notoriously they do not like anything having to do with magic, save for enchantments. Many of those upon the face of Lavellan covet the fine weaponry and armor of the Dwarves, and the Dwarves in turn will trade it off for anything from precious metals or jewels right down to livestock and fabric.

Dwarves are also famous for one other thing. Their ale. Dwarven Ale is prized among and large sums of money has been paid to Dwarven Brew masters to work for different clans, though a Dwarf will always side with his clan over all else.

Money and gems also attract a Dwarf. They value work above all else whether it be stone masonry, Weaponsmithing, forging armor or even mining. Dwarves are clannish, each loyal to a clan, and each clan loyal to the overclan, or Dwarven King. Dwarves are out to make a name for themselves and bring glory to the clan with which they are a part of. Good by nature, they can interact with most races, but distrust mages of any kind, and have reservations about ogres, trolls and the like. Dwarves stand anywhere between 4'2-4'8" in height and have the same compact, broad features common amongst all dwarves. Their mustaches and beards are plaited and groomed, even tucking the growth into their belts. Their manner of dress is plaids, or deep browns and greens and their accent is as brogueish as their cousins (For vocal reference, Celtic Irish or Scottish can be used for RP flavor.)
