Generally residing in the South in the immediate area surrounding the Great Rift, the Gold Dwarves are the dominate southern branch of dwarves.

Around four foot tall, and weighing as much as a full grown human, thanks to being short and stocky. Their skin is light brown to deep tan, often with (esp. males) finely groomed beards.

They are proud of their heritage and themselves, and often believe that anything worth doing is worth doing well, and bear a consistent and strong amount of confidence in what they do.
They tend to measure people by the wealth and honour they gain, in addition to their heritage. They strongly believe that the ancient traditions of the Deep Realm are best, and live by the them to the letter.
