“Scottish” dwarves. Appearance aside, they work better as Jamaicans. Trust me.

Ive never understood Scottish dwarves, Ive always thought of them as Scandanavian

Not really, even irl experience tends to trump training

I'm fairly certain that living in forests doesn't make one's skin green.
With their affinity for stone, steel and hammer, you KNOW they came up with stuff like this:
Don Durito
Hero
Really?
Because the thread title says "5E" and there is nothing else in the title for "It" to refer to?
Would make for a more interesting thread too I think.
Like many others in this thread, I also have read a history book or two.
”Magus, what is that beautiful sound rising up from the depths of these caverns we travel? It sounds like stones being struck...but musically!”
”SVIRFNEBLIN! Fly, you fools! FLY!”

Dueling case (two rapiers) was and is a thing IRL. Also see; escrima.
dual wielding two weapons isn’t nearly as historically weird as you seem to think. You’re right about the fact that one weapon is more defensive, but you left out the fact that the secondary weapon is also there to help create openings for your main weapon, and to improve counter-attacking.
But the tropes and expectations are vastly more important in a fantasy game. D&D is t a game about medieval Europe.
