Schnyden Dwarves Player Character Attributes

Schnyden Attributes:

Schnyeds are tall for dwarves, sometimes taller than five feet. They are more slight of build, akin to a human perhaps, and their beards are more modest. They weigh 140 lbs. or more, on average. They reach adulthood around age 20, and they can live up to 200 years old. Schnydes generally exist outside Clans, but in some regions, where they are more numerous, they form "Societies" that band together for scholarship or defense, or other projects.
Schnyden Literacy: Schnydes are almost without exception literate; their writing in the dwarven Runic system pushes the language forward in its complexity and eloquence. Some choose to learn the ancient Dwarven runic language of Talkekozz'a, going even as far as to translate ancient works and fragments.
Schnydes start with three languages: Regional Common, Dwarven, and one choice. For each point of Intelligence modifier, the schnyde speaka one more language (often draconic, jotun, orc, or gnome, among others).
