the sharp dwarfs.

Dwarfs are one of the smartest races in the ether world. They are amazing at handling cloth work and leatherwork. Their masters at crafting bows and arrows grappling hooks, anything that doesn't include iron or steal, no one knows how the dwarfs came to be, but there are tales that dwarfs tell their children about how they came to be.
"one day, when the world was new, came a big giant bear with teeth of steel, he rampaged the earth with his big giant claws and drank the blood of the trees.
The world was scared and summoned the race of 3, the evil valmar, the holy griffins, and humans with their spears and shields.
Each had a different strategy, each had a different ordeal, but once they worked together, the bear giant was slain with its head on their feet.
But after they were done they heard a child in the belly of the beast, the valmar called him a dwarf because he had tiny hands and tiny feet, they bit the child granting him the strength of the beast.
The griffins gave a blessing for the child, granting him eyes of an eagle when it sees prey, the humans raised the child and made him their own to teach him the way.
Thus the sharp dwarfs were born carrying beasts blood in their veins, all hail the sharp bears from osthaven is where they lay."
Dwarfs are said to carry a thing with the animals. They have a weird connection to any animals they encounter. they can easily tame any type of a beast and make it their pet, not just that dwarfs are amazing craftsmen and engineers. during the age of the first coming the dwarfs and the kuldar were fighting side by side. one side crafts armor and swords the other crafts ladders and catapults. With the kuldar, they were an unstoppable force.
The dwarfs in modern times are still alive and live with the humans though they don't have a place they call home they mostly live in cities where they are safe from any attacks or ridicule from the humans. There are only a few dwarfs who are in a position of power. Dwarfs mostly have shops or live as servants, there have been attempts by the dwarfs to create a country, but it mostly failed them.
