Dwarves

The dwarves are short, stocky, and the most numerous of all the races. Despite the death of their deity the dwarves remain proud of who they are as a race, they took the fall of their god in stride and forged a new religion built around the strength of mortalkind, declaring the gods obsolete. Dwarves can eat metal and develop metallic teeth and nails, and by eating certain metals, some dwarves naturally develop metal wiring as beard hair. The Dwarves make up one half of the Dilvari collective with the Dragonborn.

Dwarves dig deep underground for their buildings. Often creating what to outsiders may be considered endless labyrinths of corridors and chambers. But Dwarvish architecture is carefully mapped out and carved using perfect square angles and symmetrical lines.
