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.

....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.
Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Dwarfs have entered the chat !!?
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
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
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
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
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
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
THIS! I think it's great that Intrepid are offering options, having a variety makes for a much more complete game imo.
