Homebrew Frosk Species Details

Frosk, often referred to as Frost Dwarves, are the cousins of dwarves in the Forgotten Realms. Hidden away in cold mountain fortresses, they seldom adventure out into the world beyond and have never been spotted further south than Waterdeep.

Similarly to dwarves, these are stout and stubborn folk who often lean towards Lawfulness, but unlike their family members, they are white in skin color and have hair ranging from pale blue to a rich mauve. The Frosk are a very independent people, existing in clans with their own traditions and dialects, but the same overall language of Frosken.
