In Scandinavian folklore a dwarf is a short, stocky humanoid that lives underground or within large stones called dwarf-stones. They can be beardless and not ugly, or they may be described as old, bearded, and wrinkled, the Dwarf-King Hibich had a long beard with magical powers. They are benevolent and kind, known to offer magical solutions to those in distress but they will not hesitate to take back their gifts from the undeserving. The give money to the poor, create unending food supplies for the hungry, and produce magical healing herbs for the sick. Dwarves are excellent smiths with the ability to create objects with magical qualities such as knifes so sharp that they can cut through anything they touch. These objects are highly valued and useful but often carry a curse of some kind. It was from dwarves that men first learned to hammer steel while it was hot, then harden it in water. They wear magical belts which are the source of all their power. If his belt is taken from him, a dwarf will trade his treasure for its return. Some dwarves have magical caps that make them invisible, they will also trade things of great value to recover a stolen cap. Their magic may also lie within a cloak or a ring.
