Hill Dwarf

Obsolete: This article refers to an aspect of the game which has been removed. It is retained for historical reference only.

Hill dwarves are extremely robust but poor at using magic. They are excellent at melee combat, especially with axes or bludgeoning weapons, and are good at using armour and shields, but are poor at missile combat or at using polearms (which are usually too big for them to wield comfortably). The only forms of magic which they can use with even a minimal degree of aptitude are earth, fire, and conjurations. They advance in levels at a similar rate to common elves.

The Hill Dwarf race was removed in version 0.3 due to similarity to the Mountain Dwarf race.

Available Classes

Hill dwarves can be Fighters, Priests, Thieves, Gladiators, Berserkers, Hunters, Conjurers, Enchanters, Fire Elementalists, Earth Elementalists and Healers.
