Homebrew Dwerro Species Details

Carved from the living rock of their Mountain-Homes, the Dwerro were first introduced to the world by their deity the Stone-Mother. Each Dwerro is hand carved by their progenitor, giving each a single 'parent' lineage, which traces back to the very rock of the mountain they call home. Entirely lacking gender as a concept, each Dwerro is designed by their progenitor to look however they so desire. Dwerro are happily influenced by the art of others so each Dwerro is a love letter from the progenitor to the 'bairn' (child), their most important lifes work.

Emerging in the primodial period of the world post-Shattering, the Dwerro tend to keep their population numbers quite low due to their incredible longevity and introverted nature. Each is a marvel of their own - living rock infused with a sliver of the soul of their mountain, enough to create independent thought, personality - a living ensoulled being, both mortal and elemental in nature.

Dwerro society is centered around their Mountain-Home, each has a 'Grand Collective' of Dwerro who tend to resemble their mountain - icy blue gems adorn the pale grey stone of the Dagraline Collective of the far north, where the Shuralite Collective of Lakshent are emblazoned with the bright yellow crystals that dot the heart of their Mountain-Home. All Dwerro worship their mountain and the Stone-Mother, she who carves the path, sometimes reffered to as 'Gaia' or 'Mokhena' by the other societies of the world.
