They are those dwarves that live in the lowlands among the humans rather then in their mountain cities. ### Characteristics Hill dwarves are much like [Mountain Dwarves](Verum/Races/Dwarf/Mountain%20Dwarf.md) except that they live in the hilly terrain in the lowlands of [Krazax](Krazax.md) among their human neighbors. These dwarves tend to style their beards similarly to their human neighbors, whether whimsical or fantastical, with large mustaches. While their mountain kin focus more on the forge, hill dwarves tend to focus more on the trade that the forge produces. ### Background >_The Hill Dwarves are among those that left the [Underworld](Underworld.md) to make a home in the mountains of [Krazax](Krazax.md). As one of the trading races, dwarves can be found in many places. However, they tend to congregate mostly in [Krazax](Krazax.md). Dwarves tend to be found around large trading centers or cities with large markets. Dwarves tend to be a pragmatic people and can be found in unsavory places as well._ ### As a playable race Hill Dwarfs are a standard playable race in 5e and [Verum](Verum.md). >|<!-- -->|<!-- -->| >|---|---| >|**Ability Scores** |- +1 CON<br>- +1 WIS| >|**Size**|Dwarves stand between 4 and 5 feet tall and average about 150 pounds.
