Featherbeard Dwarves seem at first glance to be just like any ordinary dwarf. But even a little bit more of a close inspection will reveal that unlike the typical dwarves, these people have not a bit of hair on their body. Infact, its all been replaced with feathers. Their beards are vibrant oranges, reds, and yellows and composed on a plumage of phoenix pinions. Even their eyebrows and the little hairs coming out from their ears are instead fine feathers of fiery hue.
The Featherbeards are excellent craftsmen and no stranger to forges and kilns. They are noted for their distinctive pottery style which involves sculpting while in the kiln. Their resilience to fire making it possible for them to withstand the heat and even work the clay as it bakes.
