Though they are also related to the human race, dwarves have been seperated from them for longer than the elves. They are small, usually around 3-4 feet, and their bodies are entirely covered with hair. The males have thicker hair and often wear beards as well. Dwarves also have short claws and fangs, and they mostly live underground or are nocturnal. Though they can't use magic directly, with an elf's help, they do have the ability to infuse a metal object with magical properties.

Naturally, Jovanka was drawn to the eastern mountains. They reminded her of home. Diederik came with her, and they spent some time exploring the area. After some time, she spotted a door, and she pointed it out as she exclaimed, "Hey, look! There's a door over there." Diederik came to join her, and they inspected the door. "It has 'sands' written on it. You think this is where one of the clutches is?" he asked. Jovanka sometimes made decisions impulsively. "Let's find out," she said, and opened the door. Inside, the room was dark, but Jovanka didn't mind it at all; dwarves had very good night vision, after all. The main source of light was a well-lit area in the center of them room. Within its glow, there was a circle of...well, she supposed they were eggs. They looked like translucent balls of darkness, but she could see shapes moving inside them. A man appeared from another door. "Like them?" he asked, friendly. "They're my work. Sahdow Dragons. They're not the nicest dragons, though, so I hope you can handle them." Jovanka practically scoffed at that. Handling a little fuzzball shouldn't be any problem at all. She was a bounty hunter, after all. And anyway, these seemed like her type of dragons. Just to be sure... "Are they dangerous?" she asked. The man shrugged. "Well...not as dangerous as what's through that door over there," he said, pointing to antoher door down a set of stairs. There was a subtle half-grin on his face. "Don't go in there." "Why, what's there," Diederik said in a low voice. The man didn't answer him, and Diederik started asking about how to sign up for the clutch. Jovanka wandered toward the forbidden door curiously. "I think I'll check it out later," she announced. The man rolled his eyes, but made no move to dissuade her. "Nobody ever listens..."

Name: Griscoz Race: Shadow Dragon Gender: Male Color/Rank: Big Land Parents: Meliva x Arscoz Personality: A large and stoic dragon, Griscoz is not directly violent or malicious; he's the type who won't run over a weaker dragon unless they attack him first. His main annoyance is Warvisz, whose constant baiting has caused problems for both their bonds. Griscoz is actually quite laidback and easy-going, as long as he and his are safe. Bond: Jovanka
