Created by Phaestus not long after the Tsol'aa, the Dwarves are a hardy race, fond of the earth and preferring to dwell in mountains. Originally lacking free will, the race was gifted with souls at the beginning of the War of Humanity in return for Phaestus' pledge of eternal loyalty to Proteus.
In addition to the many dwarven adventurers in the lands, several communities of dwarves can be found upon Sapience: within a camp in the Siroccian Mountains, far to the north in Inbhir Ness, and close to Mhaldor in the Halls of Blackrock.
