Dwarf

The dwarf race (plural: dwarves) is one of the most common and populous races inhabiting the planet of Eamon after humans. Humanoids of short statue and stocky build, dwarves are best known as miners, skilled crafters, and strong fighters, and live both in the lands of Eamon and in Middle-earth on Arda.
Where related dwarves appear together, Eamon authors often give them rhyming names, likely inspired by the members of Thorin's company in The Hobbit.
