Dwarves

Dwarves are seen as the ideal underground artisans, or as races that are always prepared to fight, such as orcs and wolf folk. Though they are mastercraft and a hell of a fighter, it is because they reside underground, where there are many more perpetrators and opportunities for survival. That is not the only thing that works in our favor; they are a wonderful species that has evolved from underground roots to living on the surface as well. They have evolved a variety of societies based on where they are in the world. So don't assume all the Dwarves are the same.

Genetics and Reproduction

Growth Rate & Stages

Dwarves are considered infants between the ages of zero and Six, during which time they were completely dependent on their parents for food and care. They gradually pick up mobility and world awareness.

The next stage is kids who learn, play, and grow between the ages of Seven and 15. Although kids are not as dependent on their parents at this point, they are still present to meet the majority of their needs. However, young kids are inquisitive and beginning to understand others and themselves. People have a saying that a young child always hears and retains. My favorite saying from my friends at the bar is “Kids are just little people who become truth drunks”.This is still just a metaphor like all children are truth drunks. In most dwarven the society they don't get their first taste of alcohol until around their teenager years.

Between the ages of 16 and 32, their bodies begin to evolve and develop into adults, which is referred to as the teenage years. Their physical body begins to gain figure, height, weight, and muscles. In most situations, this is also where natural magic develops. In most circumstances, they will also begin to establish their identity and become less reliant on their parents.

From the ages of 32 to 249, they are in their adulthood, their bodies have matured, and they have a good sense of what their natural magic will do. It will continue to develop as they age, but in most cases, it has a set of talents.

From 250 to roughly 300 years of age, they are elders; their bodies have gradually begun to slow down and become weaker, as have their magical talents if they are not kept up with. Well, even old Dwarves still work so their physical body does weaken that much. Other people regard them as wise because they have lived a lengthy life for a Dwarves. This is the Dwarves' life cycle.
