The Dwarves are a sturdy people, sound in both body and mind. Their
meticulous handiwork, patience and determination make them amongst the
best craftsmen and formidable fighters in the world. Most Dwarves live
in the fortress keep of Gralthar, a trade city nestling deep in the
mountains of the northwest continent. Protected by mighty stone walls,
the product of fine dwarven architecture and solid building techniques,
the city was an obvious choice for the base from which the Dwarves held
back the Hakarren Empire, which overran many of the southern Dwarf
cities during its height. In ancient times, these now abandoned and
destroyed cities formed the Holy Dwarven Empire, and even now the people
of Gralthar are a spiritual people, attributing their unsurpassed skills
to the blessings of the gods.
