Fireforge Dwarf

Dwarven legends state the best metal-crafting is done in the fires of the earth itself. Long ago, some clans that followed this tradition sought out and settled near areas of volcanic activity, turning such places into their forges. These dwarves became the fireforge dwarves. They toil in the heat of magma, creating weapons, armor, and other goods noteworthy even among fine dwarven crafts. They trade these goods for necessities not found in the harsh environs of their chosen homeland.
Fireforge dwarves sometimes form alliances with the azer. They maintain good relations with the elementals, coming to their aid against salamanders and efreet when needed. In return, the azer assist fireforge dwarves against fire giants, who are persistent enemies of the dwarves, often competing with them for territory.
Fireforge skin tones range from deep, ruddy browns to dark bronze or mahogany. Their hair is typically black, brown, or gray, with some sporting deep, copper-colored or rich, dark-red hair. Eye color tends toward brown or black and occasionally hazel or gray.
