Basically Dwarves

Welcome to an introduction on dwarven culture! Join them in the mines as they grumble about orcs and goblins, and swap stories from differing clans! Or just laugh at them because they have to sit on books during dinner.

I’ve also got two discord servers!

I remember a high-level one shot where my dwarf got so drunk just before a fight against vampires that he passed out halfway through the third round. Then the vampires gagged when they tried drinking his blood because his B.A.C. was so high they couldn't stomach it

Literally yesterday in my dnd campaign:
"How old is the stone structure?"
My Artillerist artificer dwarf, instead of evaluating the stone lore through tool evaluation, just licks the stone instead.
"Yeah it's like 240- no 250 years old."

Runesmith: There are no interesting races in the Underdark that aren't slaves or slave traders.
Me, hugging the deep gnomes and flumphs: It's okay he wasn't talking about you guys.

Morridan: *Creates Dwarves*
*5 seconds later*
Morridan: "What are you doing, my creations."
Dwarves: "Father, WE ARE FORTIFYING THIS POSITION!"

Dwarf: *Sees elf*
*Checks huge leather bound book* *Unhooks greataxe with malicious intent*

That slight taste of "Diggy Diggy Hole" at the end. Glorious.

listen guys, when i single handedly set ablaze the goblin village and managed to drag all of you back to the city, that shit was cool, but not as cool when my grand dad did it. and yes, it was cooler when he did it because he was with other dwarfs and he didn't need to drag noone back because dwarfs never fall.

I remember the PHB saying the Dwarves take a long time to really consider someone a friend. Like they can hang out with a human for 60 years and on that human's deathbed the dwarf would be like "he was a nice work acquaintance. we were really getting close to knowing one another"

"That's going in the book of grudges."

I've always found it funny how dark elves are visibly different from normal elves in culture, enviroment and all that, while dark dwarves are just slightly meaner dwarves

[elmonko]

Being a gobbo, that's a grudgin

Being an Elgi, that's a grudgin

Being an Umgi who doesn't pay up promptly? You better believe that's a grudgin

[Natedawg]

"take everything too seriously" did you forget the part about the orcs wiping out 70% of their population? theyre entitled to a healthy dose of resentment for that. at least they arent taking out their rage burning innocent cities, Dwarves crusade against the Grobi, and the Grobi alone

[redrave]

In the Forgotten Realms at least, the Dwarves do have a good reason for being suspicious of the elves. They're one of the few races old enough to remember the elven crown wars, so are aware of how horribly things go wrong when the elves are left to run the world.

Please just be a video of him saying "they're short, that's it."

After all this time he finally made a basically dwarves.

That Yogscast clip brought waves of nostalgia, Imma have to rewatch a bit of Shadow of Israphel later
