Homebrew Dwarf Troll Hybrid Species Details
During and age of great mages who believed they rivaled the Gods themselves, one such mage created his own army. By taking both dwarves and trolls, he blended them thru arcane means, taking the best of both to create soldiers beholden to him. Tough, stocky, and practically immortal with wickedly sharp retractable claws/spikes that sprang out of their fingers or knuckles built in, they were perfection. Over and over they proved able to protect him from all his enemies, save the very Gods that he mocked. During the resuting hubris of the mage, many fell to the blows that only Deities could do, many turned on their creator. Only a few of these beings still live in the world, outwardly looking like nothing but a dwarf, but hidden from view, save during battle are impressive abilities.
