Detailed Description

Dwarves are shorter but broader and just as heavy as humans and thus considered as medium-size creatures but they cannot move quite as fast. Dwarves are most at home in areas with a preponderance of stone and metals such as mountains or rocky hillsides. Most of them live in underground mansions where they work in vast complexes of mines and forges.

They have many special racial traits that make them well suited to life underground. Dwarves have darkvision that allows them to see without color up to 60 feet in total darkness. They share a feature common to many earth dwellers called stonecunning. Their favored class is fighter. Dwarves also get the following modifiers:

• +2 bonus when rolling Constitution scores
• -2 penalty when rolling Charisma scores
• +2 bonus to Fortitude saves against poison
• +2 bonus to all saves against spells and spell-like effects
• +1 bonus to attacks against orckind and goblinoids
• +4 bonus to defense against giantkin.
• +2 bonus to Appraise skill check for rare or exotic items
• +2 bonus to Craft checks for stone or metal

Dwarves typically exist in fantasy campaign settings.
