7/27/2019 Race Dwergi

1/2

Races: Dwergi

lso known as Dweorg, Dvegr, Zwerc, Dvergar, the

Dwergi are a dying race. Once the most powerful people

on the planet, their decline has left them a spiritually shatteredpeople. Once they took great pride in their grand architecture,

their technological supremacy, and loved each other just ashard as they worked. But they did not change with the world,

and as the rest of the worlds inhabitants came into their own,the Dwergi retreated into their subterranean fortresses.

A

War and impotence stripped the Dwergi of their pride,and all that was left was to work. And work is the life of the

average Dwergi. There is no love, no joy. Just never endingwork meant to numb the brain and appease the spirit through

the acquisition of gems and precious metals. Dwergi really

dont even breed any more, such is their disregard for the basicpleasures of existence.

But not all are like that. Some strike out into the

world, wanting to live. These types often have just as much

trouble settling down in human society as their own, andbecome wandering adventurers.
