Dwarves are "intelligent" Template:L Template:L that live in Template:Les carved from Template:Ls. They are the featured Template:L of Template:L and are also one of the races playable in Template:L. They are mainly interested in acquiring wealth and rare Template:Ls, especially Template:L. They are Template:L dependent and work slowly if deprived of it for long. Their most hated enemies are the Template:Ls.
Dwarven Template:L become adults at their twelfth birthday.
In accounts of exploits or Template:L, the generic name Template:L is sometimes used in place of any specific dwarf name. Several nicknames for dwarves also exist; one of the more common is dorf*, but there are others that are less polite.
Dwarven diplomacy
Once you have a Template:L, a Dwarven town liaison (and later, a city liaison) will arrive with the fall Template:L every year. You may request Template:Ls, Template:Ls, or Template:Ls from the liaison, which will arrive on the following year's caravan if the liaison makes it home alive.
Dwarves in adventure mode
Dwarves always start with Template:L equipment, making them the best-equipped race. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the shops are Template:L, so all Template:L upgrades will have to come from looting dwarven fortresses, most likely your own. (You can try slaughtering a living dwarf fortress for their stuff, but most guards have basic iron equipment like your own, and you will DIE.) If you can find a Human civilization with at least Template:L equipment, you can buy upgraded weapons and shields.
Dwarves have the highest natural armor of the adventuring races, at +1, but are one size smaller than Template:L and Template:Ls, so they cause less damage and absorb less damage.
