Dragonshore Dwarf (5e Subrace)
Dwarf Subrace
Dwarves detest the sea. We hate these dragons more.--Galmarr Depthfinder, First Admiral of Dragonshore.
When dragons assailed and razed their home of old, the dwarves of hammerdeep did not falter. When these dragons retreated across the seas, the dwarves did not let their hatred of the waves get in their way. They chased their foe through rain and storm, one day comming to the island of Dragonshore, said by men to have no wharf. But nothing stops a dwarf. They slaughtered the seven dragons nesting there, and from their bones and scales rebuilt their home of old, setting sail again in search of new foes, and new opportunities to expand their ever-growing hoard.
