Disposition - : Kithrin Dwarves are durable and strong-willed. By their nature, they are blunt with their mannerisms and quick to the point. They are grumpy by nature, and although friendship with this race uncommon, once a bond is made, it is usually permanent.

Likes -------- : Mining, Gems, Gold, Building underground structures of magnificence, crafting minerals into ingots and coin, earthen treasures. They love treasure and the magics that work within them, but, most of all, they crave Gem`Vein.

Rivaling their love of finding the treasured gems and gold of the earth, Kithrin highly enjoy Kohakk (their signature brew, holding it as if it were a loyal family member). The Kithrin do not take kindly to any who insult it.

Needs ------- : Basic necessities of life (food, water shelter, Etc.).

Notes -------- : They do not especially like outsiders, and are loath to entertain such (especially Elves).

Unless agreements have been established, The Kithrin will not dig within the territory of the Sha`Qual.

Where a Kithrin civilization has been established, there will always be a Sha`Qual civilization below, for they coexist, keeping open the lines of commerce and trade (trade from within the deep, and with other races upon the surface). Contact is limited to only those who are trusted.

The first line of defense upon the border of Sundrivar is the heavily manned Iron'Gate, designed to keep safe the passages out into the world of the sun, as well as the Lower Gate downward. the upper Iron`Gate is is a bottleneck and strong defensive point, for there is only one in to Iron Keep.

Sundrivar: All Dwarves know there is an endless below, and they eagerly explore these vast and natural underground regions which cannot be all mapped. Sundrivar harbors a vast array of unknown caverns, tunnels, chasms, passages, secrets and encounters. The dwarves are among the few races willing and able to venture deep into Sundrivar.
