History
The first civilisation
First dwarven ancients began to life around 400 o.C. as fury monkeymen in the forests of the northern lands.
Between 600-650 o.C. they created their first settlements, about 700 they were able to use fire for working on metalls, so the dwarven civilisation is one of the oldest.
754 o.C. king Murlasch founded the first dwarven kingdom.
778-789 the dwarven kingdom hold the "First War" against the elves.
End of dwarven high culture
891 o.C. the first dwarven kingdom splitted into subfactions, soon they'll face a new enemy, the dragons. Until 1007 o.C. the Dragon rush shouldn't end but together with the elves, the big dragon nests in Deadwood and Dragonia Vulcania were destroyed.
1360 o.C., when the Ice Age started, most dwarven colonies decided to leave the western continent and travelled into the endsea. Only Dwarven Peak stayed.
Culture
They're peaceful, love festivals, beer and stories but aren't interested in big adventures. Dwarven peak is allied with the northern kingdom so the northmen are close friends of its citizen. The northern dwarves are also known for their well developed technology and beautiful architecture and crafting. Their appearance is dominated by very long beards and well-designed helmets.
