The Dwarves of the Red Frontier

 

The Dwarfs


The dwarfish folk hail from the Shaggy Mountains (or as they call it, the Shaggy Cocks). They're pretty much like Appalachian miners. Their of knotty, short frame, yet stronger than their stature lets on. A clannish people, they usually stick the Shaggies and the area around Ieston. While they have a king, he must share power with the heads of the clans. They've allowed the Shaggies to serve as north western border for Ieston. They also share the Shaggies with Chickasaw and Choctaw tribes. With that said, more than a handful of dwarf have began trailblazing north and east, looking to mine and set colonies around and in the Devil’s Spine.  Many have accepted God and are at peace with Ieston, though some still worship their ancient and weird god The Great Fly Brundle-bl’mzz.

Most tribes build a small, squat building above ground called a Blockhall or Blocks, usually three stories in height, but most of their people, mining, and training is done many levels under the earth. Eventually, the younger dwarfs either getting into bloody fights with their kin and die, or go out to start a Blockhall of their own. Many of these Blocks are connected by the road called the Great Chain which travels underground throughout the Shaggies.
