Master
craftsmen and builders, delvers into the earth, smiths of unsurpassed
quality and fighters of a steadfast and strong-willed temperament
the dwarves are accomplished at war but rarely muster above
the surface save in times of great peril for all the lands.
Most
of the dwarves’ battles, most of the dwarves’ lives,
are spent deep beneath the surface of the world, delving their
homes, building their fortresses living and dying without sight
of the sun. They are one with the rock, stoic, unswerving and
patient.
The
greater number of the dwarves’ wars are conducted in the
caverns and keeps below the surface and fought against one terrible
enemy only, the endless march of the goblinoids. The bitter
feuds between the dwarves and the goblinoids are legendary and
their battles and skirmishes in the dark heart of the world
all but unceasing.
