[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 8341450, member: 19675"] I’ve done some different things with dwarves: 1) in a post apocalyptic Homebrew, dwarves TPK the brains of the few Psionic members of their species and placed the in the humanoid war machines they had been commissioned to make for one of the major antagonists. They did this because their patrons had been wiped out, and most of the dwarves were lost as collateral damage. Known as “The Inheritors”, they remain culturally Dwarven, but their physical forms are anything but, (Essentially, reskinned Warforged, but with Dwarven cultural and skill blocks.) 2) in a different setting, Moradin blew life into his carvings, and called them Dwarves…but this lot continued to emulate their god. Dwarves reproduce asexually, by carving others out of stone and using magic rituals to bring them to life. The stone from which each is carved determined his preferred class. Iron ore would be a fighter, for instance; opal would be a sorcerer. 3) my River Folk (size S) were anthropomorphic snapping turtles, culturally drafted along the lines of certain halflings, but with certain abilities and attributes modified from dwarves. Making a size M variant out of anthropomorphic alligator snapping turtles would work just fine. [/QUOTE]
