Jollgn

"After spending months traveling from dwarven stronghold to dwarven stronghold, I had gained a new perspective on the City Dwarves in comparison to their underground brothers. They've kept the pride and joviality of their cousins, but they've also picked up a few tricks of the city, reducing the stalwart code many other dwarves follow. In all honesty, this makes them more applicable to the world since they are more understanding of those who use unsavory means to survive."  
- Spaeron's Journal
    Many dwarves have an honor that can't be broken, an honor that can result in fights and quarrels. City Dwarves, however, have learned to bend their honor. They understand that some are not as fortunate as others and need to resort to less lawful means to survive. The honor of a city dwarf allows such people to live in peace while never allowing true criminals to run rampant. This tends to create a character that is aloof and seems fickle in the face of crime. It also result in many City Dwarves being looked down on or ignored by their cousins.

Basic Information

Anatomy

City dwarves, like many, are short and stocky. However, their defining detail is that they have none. Other dwarves have runes or embers, city dwarves are just dwarves.

Growth Rate & Stages

Dwarves enter adulthood somewhere around the age of 50.

Dietary Needs and Habits

The dietary needs of dwarves can be considered a bit strange as rotted food or items not typically considered food still give nutrition. This is due to the fact that, deep down, they are still golems that only need energy to function. Alcohol, which is a staple of dwarven passtime, is also shown to be a nutritional source for them as well.
