My Ideal dwarf physique

They should be built like a stubby muscled Santa with a drinking problem who would never dream of skipping leg day. He should look like he spends his time drinking ale by the keg and throwing boulders up a hill. They should also be satisfyingly dirty. Few things in this world are more suspicious than a clean dwarf in a fancy outfit. I want a beard with some grit and grease in it. We're talking months of accumulated beer froth, ham oil and dust. He should look like he has an odor, but any mention of it would be seen as a compliment. A filthy dwarf is a hard working dwarf. His grime is a record of his deeds, and will gladly tell you about every knotch, tear, and scar if you bring him enough to drink.

    Most Dwarves yours truly has met/seen IRL seem to actually be relatively thinner folk; Am glad there will be two races of them, with different characteristics. Anyone with Dwarfism IRL should have the option for a more-realistic portrayal - but the stout/robust Dwarves should certainly be on the table.

    ....Though most IRL Dwarves I've seen more-resemble D&D Halflings or LOTR Shire-folk. Think Verne Troyer or Warwick Davis.

    This is peak dwarven appearance for me! (from Lineage 2)
    Admittedly probably because of nostalgia.

    No nostalgia. L2's dwarves are simply the best.
  • I never really play dwarves but I really hope they (and every other race) has options to make their characters JACKED and BROLIC as fuck brah (high T moment)

  • My ideal Dwarf physique was discovered in Vanguard Saga of Heros , where i maxed out all the sliders in character creation to the right to create an oversized exaggerated dwarf that was so bulked up it was an epic look ,Sadly l donot have any screenshots to show and wielding a two handed hammer , laughs omg

    I love the Lord of the Rings Dwarfs. From the build and grit of them. Nothing is more classic IMO.

    Warhammer dwarfs will always be the superior dwarfs! I like where the Dünir are at too though.

    I don't know about their physique it looks awesome already...
    but there needs to be much more metal involved...
    and battle...

    AND MORE METAAAAL!!!



    Here we are, at the gates of the mountain
    Hold the line
    We're alone but no one was left behind
    We are outnumbered as defenders
    Overrun, but there will be no surrender

    Here we are, at the gates of the mountain
    Hold the line, feel the breath of the horde
    That's charging us
    We are outnumbered as defenders
    Overrun, we will answer to their fire with fire!

    Fire! Fire!
    Fire and Stone
    We came from the forge together
    And we'll answer to the call

    With Fire! fire!
    We'll kill them all
    As long as we are together
    At the gates we'll not fall

    The howl of the winter, strong will rise
    O'er the hills and mountains
    The sun and the moon will scorch the sky
    A new era dawns again now

    Straight through the heights, you're forging on
    Ride with the winds that blow along
    Down to the lands far away
    Carry the glory of the new age

    Wintersaga, Here glows the moon of winter nights
    Risen for a king yet to come


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmWGMQsasRw


    Rise with force
    Through the fire you'll stand with us
    Tales of war burn like flame on winter nights
    Rise with force
    Through this night you'll stand with us
    Side by side 'til the end we'll stand as one

    In the fray, in the fire, we are marching on
    'Til the end, through the dark
    We are holding on
    Far from our home we're standing as one
    When the battlefield calls
    Together we're marching on
    In the fray, in the fire, we are marching on
    'Til the end, we're still holding on
    Together we fall, together we fight
    And once together we rise

    We are the fire for the smithery
    We are ready to burn
    We are the cold of the winter night
    We are blinded by the blood of our enemies
    And once together we rise


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdHpktve7xc


    Runes of magic shining on the boulders
    Telling stories that were born from afar
    The guardians do not fear the winter night
    They wait together for the storm

    In the mountains where the legend was born
    We're the warriors of the army of stone
    We're the dwarves of the mountain reborn
    We're the warriors of the army of stone

    We're reliving now
    The sparking forge melting iron
    We're reliving now
    The story of a kingdom awakened
    Rekindle now, with force!
    Rekindle now, forevermore!
    We're reliving now
    The rising force for a long time denied


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFxKm8zxCeE


    And we mine, mine, mine
    ‘til the morning light
    Digging, crafting, carrying up the ores
    Smelting at the forge
    Nothing shall prevail o’er the gold
    ‘Til the king and all the dwarves have come back home


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4yfZAQTgxw

    I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole
    Diggy, diggy hole, diggy, diggy hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole
    Diggy, diggy hole, digging a hole


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34CZjsEI1yU


    On the day of the call to arms
    Over the lands laid low before darkest night
    On the day of the call to arms
    Our fate will be decided once again
    With a war till the end when...

    The armies ride to the mountain
    They'll fight for a future
    Far away, far away
    The battle has begun
    Ahead of the mountain
    They'll fight for a future
    Far away, far away
    It's the battle of the five armies

    For the gold beneath the mountain stone
    They will fight in the battle of the five armies
    For the gold beneath the dragon's lair
    They will fight once again

    I love that dwarven band, they should be featured in Verra like In Extremo in Gothic :D

    THIS! I think it's great that Intrepid are offering options, having a variety makes for a much more complete game imo.
