-Descended from the [[:Category:Elder Gods|Elder God]] [[Clangorum]], the dwarven race originally called themselves the clangoru, but [[human|humans]], when they first arrived in [[Lusternia]], for some reason insisted on referring to the clangoru as '''dwarves''', a term which eventually became accepted in the common vernacular. Although they look like humans, they are substantively shorter and stockier, and their hair grows at a rate five times faster than that of humans. Thus, most male dwarves prefer to grow beards rather than shaving five times a day. Contrary to rumour, it is rare for a female dwarf to grow a full beard; however, growing long, silky sideburns which can be braided is a fairly common practice. They are a robust mountain race with a rich history, though the dwarven kingdom itself was split during the [[Taint Wars]].
