Dwarf

While the elves ruled the forests, the dwarves conquered the mountains on both worlds, carving great kingdoms within. Now, many of these kingdoms have been overrun by goblins and the dwarves have been scattered. Only two of the ancient dwarven kingdoms still remain burrowed deep within the mountains: one within the Great Divide on Terria, the other in the Emerald Mountains on Ianna.
Dwarves often make a living as expert craftsmen and guards in the cities. Because most dwarves rely heavily on their faith in the element of earth or the gods, they make excellent priests and clerics.
Play a dwarf if you want…
  • to be tough and as hard as rock.
  • to have strong ties to the mountains and to your ancestors.
  • to be a member of a race that favors the cleric, fighter and paladin classes.
