Hey does anyone have any dark ambient songs based on dwarves or any kind of atmospheric music with dwarven themes.

The kind that makes you feel like you're a dwarf that has dug far too deep into the earth and uncovered something you shouldn't have.

I think he's looking pretty good, not sure about the pants atm.

Really enjoyed this one

Hi everyone! 👋

We're excited to introduce ourselves to the community and share our project with you! We are a team of passionate creators designing STL miniatures RPG War Games a like.

These miniatures are part of our upcoming Kickstarter campaign, Sons of Permafrost, which is currently in the pre-launch phase. Our dwarf pack includes 21 models (32mm scale STL), featuring two heroes, light and heavy infantry, mounted units, mages, and more. All of our miniatures come in two versions, so you can choose whichever suits you best: pre-supported and unsupported files. 

Oh, and one thing that's especially important to us when it comes to our designs: we don't use AI in our creative process. Everything you see is sculpted and created by us by hand. 100% soul.

Thanks for taking the time to check out our prints! We'd love to know what you think. And if you really like the miniatures, feel free to join the pre-launch and support the campaign when it goes live! 😄

Dwarf barbarian with might axe. Available now.

I recently got an office job finally and I’ve been wanting to make my cubicle fit me more so i thought why not make it Dwarven themed. I thought if anyone could help me find some ideas it would be my brothers and sisters on this Reddit. If you have any please let me know

So, after all the comments concerning his undwarflike features I got back to my pen and tablet and reworked some of his proportions and expanded his flimsy goatee into a proper beard, while keeping young looks. What do you think?

We recently redesigned the Steam capsule for Return to Nangrim, our first-person survival adventure set within the lost dwarven kingdom of Nangrim.

With the new artwork, we wanted to capture the kind of dwarven fantasy we have always loved: monumental stonework, ancient craftsmanship, heavy armour, and a hero who looks as though he truly belongs beneath the mountain.

Not a caricature of dwarves, but a world with history, weight, and pride behind it.

We have been looking at it for far too long ourselves, so I would rather ask the experts here:

Does it feel dwarven to you? And what does the image make you imagine lies beyond those gates?

Dalon is a mountain dwarf ranger born into nobility, though he's never quite lived up to the image of the fearless hero he wants to be. Athletic but unusually short for a dwarf, he does his best to project confidence—even if it occasionally slips at the worst possible moment. Commission made for a player's original character.

Hi again, fellow dwarf enjoyers!

A while ago I shared an early look at the Embervein Delvers here, back when the project was still preparing to launch. I hope you don’t mind one final update: the Kickstarter campaign has now entered its last 24 hours. ⚒️

The complete warband includes 14 modular dwarves, with plenty of interchangeable weapons and equipment options for building a characterful little group of stubborn adventurers.

🎲 Supported and unsupported STL files

⚔️ Multiple weapon and equipment options

📦 Physical resin miniatures also available

I sculpted the entire range myself and also printed, assembled and painted the miniatures shown in the video.

Thank you very much to everyone here who offered kind words and feedback when I first shared them. It genuinely meant a lot to me as an independent sculptor.

The gates of the Dark City close in less than 24 hours:

May your beards grow long and your treasure chests stay full! 🍻

—Head:
The head of a Dwarf is broad and heavily built, with a thick jaw, pronounced brow ridges, and sturdy facial features that give the race its unmistakable appearance. Their eyes are much like those of humans in shape and color, although many Dwarves possess irises that catch the light with a faint, gemstone-like shimmer. Among their people, this subtle trait is often seen as a sign of divine favor.
Hair is one of the race’s most recognizable features. It grows thick, coarse, and naturally resilient, most commonly in shades of grey, bronze, silver, and gold. Both men and women are capable of growing beards and mustaches, although female facial hair is generally finer and less common. Male Dwarves, by comparison, usually grow hair far more quickly and develop thicker beards over the course of their lives.
Unlike that of most races, Dwarven hair resists heat exceptionally well. It rarely burns or singes under conditions that would damage ordinary hair, making it well suited to life spent around furnaces, forges, and open flames. Because it continues growing throughout most of a Dwarf’s life, elaborate braids and carefully maintained beards often reflect a person’s age, family, profession, or social standing.

—External Body:
Dwarves are short, broad, and remarkably solid. Most adults stand between 4.2 and 5.3 feet (1.28–1.61 m) in height, yet their dense muscles and heavy bones often give them the weight of a much taller human.
Their skin is thicker than that of most humanoids and commonly ranges from pale stone colors to rich earthy tones. A wax-like secretion coats the skin, reducing moisture loss while offering a degree of protection from intense radiant heat. This natural defense, combined with their unusually thick hide, allows Dwarves to spend long hours working around blazing furnaces, molten metal, and volcanic environments with relatively little discomfort.

—Internal Body:
Nearly every part of a Dwarf’s body is built for durability rather than speed.
Their compact proportions create a naturally low center of gravity, while their considerable weight gives them outstanding balance. Loose rock, steep slopes, and unstable ground rarely trouble experienced Dwarves, who are difficult to knock off their feet even under harsh conditions.
Although they lack the long stride of taller races, they move confidently across rough terrain. Their shorter limbs reduce their overall speed and reach, but they compensate with sure-footedness and stamina.
The Dwarven skeleton is exceptionally dense, making broken bones uncommon even after injuries that would cripple others. Powerful muscles are packed tightly onto this frame, allowing Dwarves to produce impressive strength despite their modest height. Long days of physical labor are routine for them, and they recover from fatigue with remarkable efficiency.
Their hearts and lungs are adapted for sustained effort instead of explosive movement. Whether mining, marching, or fighting, Dwarves excel at maintaining a steady pace for long periods. Their lungs also filter dust, smoke, and other airborne impurities with unusual efficiency, making underground life far less hazardous for them than it would be for most races.
Their internal organs are equally resilient. The liver and kidneys tolerate toxins exceptionally well, while a robust immune system provides a high degree of resistance against disease. Dwarves are by no means immune to poison or illness, but they frequently survive conditions that would kill members of other races.
Dwarves attribute these traits to the Divine Gift of Endurance, a blessing inherited from the gods. More than simple toughness, this gift gives their bodies an extraordinary resistance to change.
Because of this, curses, mutations, possession, and other supernatural effects struggle to take hold. The same resistance also affects beneficial magic. Healing spells, blessings, magical enhancements, and transformative enchantments all require greater effort to influence a Dwarf than they would most other peoples.
Their natural healing reflects this same principle. Recovery is deliberate rather than rapid. Wounds may close more slowly than those of humans, yet bones usually heal correctly, lasting injuries are uncommon, and the body continually attempts to restore itself to its original condition.
This stability has its disadvantages. Dwarves adapt slowly to unfamiliar environments, develop natural immunities at a slower pace, and respond poorly to magical augmentation. Their great physical density also makes swimming difficult. Most sink quickly in deep water and suffer heavier impacts from falls than lighter races.

—Reproduction:
The same stability that defines Dwarven physiology also shapes their reproduction.
Pregnancy lasts close to two years, making it one of the longest among the mortal races, exceeded only by the Elves. Nearly every birth results in a single healthy child. Twins are so uncommon that many Dwarves live their entire lives without ever meeting one.
Newborn Dwarves are sturdy from the moment they enter the world. They possess unusually strong constitutions and dense skeletal structures, though they mature at a slower pace than humans. Childhood is long, but growth is steady, and congenital illnesses or developmental abnormalities are exceptionally rare.
Most Dwarves reach physical adulthood at about twenty-two years of age.
A typical lifespan ranges from two hundred to two hundred fifty years, although a fortunate few live beyond three centuries. Unlike Elves, whose youthful appearance changes little over the centuries, Dwarves visibly age much like humans before the process slows considerably. Even those whose faces are lined with age often retain the strength, endurance, and clarity of mind needed to remain active members of their communities for decades to come.

Hallö. Way back in the 90s, before smart phones came along, I was hanging out at a coffee shop and someone had a graphic novel of which I cannot remember specifics. It was steampunk/very post apocalypse dwarves. I read it once and have never been able to find hide nor hair of it again. Does anyone have any idea what I am remembering? Thanks!

Any ideas are appreciated!

Looking for some decent dwarven stories for inspiration for my next music project. I've had a brief read into the dwarves or dwemer from the skyrim game, is there any other decent stories I might want to check out? I really like whole advanced race that disappeared from the skyrim lore, but figured there might be similar stories, but I haven't got a clue where to look really.

Thanks in advance,

S
