Dwarf #
Among those who have words, this race has the second largest sphere of influence, just beneath humans.
Their height only reaches about 150cm, but they have very tough, barrel-like bodies. They love liquor and feasts more than anything else, and they are valiant. Though they may be heavy and dull, they have high stamina and dexterity alike, making them competent warriors.
A dwarf is treated as an adult at 30 and generally lives anywhere between 800 to 900 years.
