== Behavior and Culture ==
Dwarves have literal mindsets; if they ask a question, they demand an answer.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/12/28/1-09-r/ Chapter 1.09 R]</ref>They are incredibly grounded in the present, and this allows them to function in their extended lifespan. They can live normal lives among other species, though they sometimes retreat for a decade or two to process what they've gone through.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/07/02/9-04/ Chapter 9.04]</ref> They are very organized amongst themselves.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/06/18/interlude-singing-ships/ Interlude - Singing Ships]</ref>
Dwarves are "rare enough on Terandria, never mind the other parts of the world."<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/10/21/3-25/ Chapter 3.25]</ref> One of the reasons being that they don’t like to travel, as they suffer from seasickness.<ref name=":4.45" />Despite this, they do still use ships, normally to trade and ferry goods rather than transport people. Their ships are heavy and squat, and in the absence of wind and currents can use oars that resemble water wheels. They can arm their prows with Dwarfsteel.<ref name=":0" />

Dwarves favour heavy armor. They wear chainmail at the lightest, and many will have plate.<ref name=":0" />
