Homebrew Ev'Arak Species Details
Ev’arak is a dwarven contraction for “steel mind”, so named for the primary trait of the rare offspring between a dwarf and a gnome. They are highly intelligent, and love to know how things work, but they are also rigid thinkers who prize consistency and predictability above all else, and most become fussy and irate when anything or anyone deviates from their expectations and high standards. Even when they are in a good mood, most ev’arak maintain a visage that others find expressionless and inscrutable.
