Gold Dwarf

Unlike the Shield Dwarves, the Gold Dwarves did not decline in terrible wars against evil humanoids. While they practiced some magic, they never acquired the hubris that caused the downfall of some human nations. Confident and secure, the Gold Dwarves gained a reputation for haughtiness and pride. While Gold Dwarves can be aloof and suspicious, for the most part they are forthright warriors and shrewd traders.
