Dwarf
|
| Language: Dwarven |
Dwarves are the children of Pekeana and Baiqul and are imbued with the very soul of the mountains they inhabit - something that is recorded in their holy Antom. Their homes are marvels of engineering, carved from enduring and stubborn rock. Peakana gave the dwarves their love for the earth, and Baiqul blessed their hands with the skills to shape it. Dwarves cannot use magic and are naturally resistant to many forms, but they excel in enchantment runes carved into trinkets and weapons.
The dwarves honor their dead by burying them under rock mounds. During plagues, whole caverns may be caved in instead of individual holes. It is considered the journey home to Pekeana. In war, dwarves are known for their shield walls and phalanxes. Outside of the Dwarven Holds, dwarves are found in Elori, Pirtair, and even a few in Orsia.
