Dwarves are short, stocky fellows, easily identified by their size and shape. They average 4 to 4.5 feet tall. They have ruddy cheeks, dark eyes, and dark hair. Dwarves tend to be dour and taciturn. They are given to hard work and care little for most humor. They are strong and brave and enjoy beer, ale, mead, and even stronger drink. Their chief love, however, is precious metal, particularly gold. Dwarves like the earth and being underground and have a strong dislike for the sea. Not overly fond of elves, they have a fierce hatred of orcs and goblins. They are ill-disposed toward magic and have little talent for it, but revel in fighting and warcraft. Though dwarves are suspicious and avaricious, their courage and tenacity more than compensate for these shortcomings. Dwarves are healthier than most other races and heal quicker because of it. Their infravision allows them to see living creatures even in the darkest of areas.The maximum stats for a dwarf are: Str:20 Int:18 Con:25 Dex:18
