Also known as Traitors to the surface dwarves, the Deep Dwarves are one of the more commonly known Deep dwelling races. They have lived in the Deep for a few thousand years after the various Dwarven nations split up during the race wars. Finding their way into the Deep, their goal is now to dominate the riches in metals and gems found deep in the Deep. They could care less about the surface with its glaring sun, and do not raid surface settlements often, unlike the Dark Elves. They do raid other dwarven settlements however. The Deep Dwarves will even temporarily ally themselves with other races to bring a blow to their (former) brethren.

They live in cities hewn out of the bedrock of the Deep. Like other dwarven nations, the Deep Dwarves live in clans to which they're very loyal. Leadership of a clan is hereditary.

Names: 
Deep Dwarf names do not vary much from other dwarven names. Their surname is usually the name of their clan.

Adventurers: 
Deep Dwarves do not go to the surface willingly. If they do, they're either forced or exiled. The glare of the sun pains their eyes and they usually want to avoid it. Those that do find themselves on the surface tend to adapt as much as possible after a long period of discomfort and end up in the mercenary trade.
