Dwarf

The dwarfes are a reserved species, but once they get to know someone they are extremly friendly. They have exrutiatingly long memories and, when wronged, will hold a grudge for generations. Many of the older families have taken to gathering their grudges in large tombs so that none shall ever be forgotten.

Introductions

In meetings it is customary that the dwarves introduce themselves in order of their status. For this it is customary that the indiviual with the highest status is asked to make the first introduction. In general dwarves are not offended for errors in the introduction order if it was not done in malice. These introduction sequences are usually overseen by an auditor, that is the individual that requested the first introduction.

Interspecies Relations and Assumptions

Dwarves are often incapable of understanding the cultures of others, as they tend to not learn or specificly care for other traditions.
