Dwarves

Short, but sturdy and strong. The dwarves primarily reside in Thaorum to the northeast side of the land of Celaria at the foot of the high mountains. They make up nearly the entire population of the nation of Thorum. While not hostile to other races like Dorei elves or Nostulk humans, most 'taller' creatures may find it difficult to live in cities made for those with shorter legs. While they may not be as big as the barbarians who dwell to the south, higher in the mountains, they are physically strong in every way. That strength allowed them to wield weapons and armor with ease, preventing their defeat long ago when the wars raged. Aside from physical prowess, the dwarves excel in smithing and machinery.
