Called by various names on different worlds-[[Moradin]], [[Moradin|Reorx]], and others-that god gave *dwarves* an affinity for stone and metal and for living underground. The god also made them resilient like the mountains, with a life span of about 350 [[Post-Illiman Calendar|PIC]]. > > Squat and often bearded, the original *dwarves* carved cities and strongholds into mountainsides and under the earth. Their oldest legends tell of conflicts with the monsters of mountaintops and the [[Underdark]], whether those monsters were towering [[Giant|giants]] or subterranean horrors. Inspired by those tales, *dwarves* of any culture often sing of valorous deeds-especially of the little overcoming the mighty. > > On some [[World|worlds]] in the [[Multiverse]], the first settlements of *dwarves* were built in hills or mountains, and the families who trace their ancestry to those settlements all themselves hill dwarves or mountain dwarves, respectively. The [[Greyhawk]] and [[Dragonlance]] settings have such communities." ## *Dwarf* Traits [[Creature Type]]: [[Humanoid]] [[Size]]: Medium (about 4-5 feet tall) [[Speed]]: 30 feet As a *Dwarf*, you have these special traits. **Darkvision.** You have [[Darkvision]] with a range of 120 feet. **Dwarven Resilience.** You have [[Resistance]] to [[Damage Types|Poison damage]].
