Dwarves are usually associated with undersized, bearded folk, who love gold, beer and to juggle hammers. They originally come from the Viking sagas. They were created, thanks to the will of the gods, from the tiny bones of the dead giant - Ymir, while the rest of his skeleton became the building material of the world known to us. They are brothers of the mountains and are really born of the bones of the earth itself. Our dice are created in a similar way.
