Dwarves favor simple styles for their hair, beards, and clothes. Dwarven men value their beards highly and groom them very carefully.

Their hair is usually black, gray, or brown, and worn long. Dwarves' skin is typically deep tan or light brown, and their eyes are dark. Dwarven men are slightly taller and noticeably heavier than dwarven women. Physical Description: Dwarves stand only 4 to 4 1/2 feet tall, but they are so broad and compact that they are, on average, almost as heavy as humans. Among gnomes, who get along famously with dwarves, a mild oath is 'If I'm lying, may I cross a dwarf.' Their sense of justice is strong, but at its worst it can turn into a thirst for vengeance. They fight neither recklessly nor timidly, but with a careful courage and tenacity.

Dwarves value gold, gems, jewelry, and art objects made with these precious materials, and they have been known to succumb to greed.

Personality: Dwarves are slow to laugh or jest and suspicious of strangers, but they are generous to those few who earn their trust. Their mysterious kingdoms, carved out from the insides of mountains, are renowned for the marvelous treasures that they produce as gifts or for trade. Dwarves are known for their skill in warfare, their ability to withstand physical and magical punishment, their knowledge of the earth's secrets, their hard work, and their capacity for drinking ale.
