Race: Inhabiting Middle-earth, the central continent of Arda in an imagined mythological past
The Dwarves are a race of tough, warlike, and industrious people who live in the mountains of Middle-earth. They are skilled in mining, metallurgy, blacksmithing, and jewellery-making. They are also fond of stonework and architecture, and their cities are often carved out of the living rock.
The Dwarves are descended from the Avari, one of the three tribes of the Eldar who left the land of Aman in the First Age. They were led by Durin the Deathless, who founded the first dwarven kingdom of Khazad-dûm in the Misty Mountains.
The Dwarves have a long and storied history, and have often been at war with the Orcs and other enemies. They are also known for their love of gold and jewels, and their greed has often led them into conflict with other races.
Despite their flaws, the Dwarves are a noble and courageous people, and they have played a vital role in the history of Middle-earth. They are a force to be reckoned with, and their strength and determination are legendary.
