Homebrew Dwelf Species Details

Dwelves: As the offspring of an elf and a dwarf, the dwelf is a misbegotten creature. Like a half-orc, They are met with disdain from both their bloodlines, and is usually doomed to a life of maladjustment.

Personality: As with all of a dwelf's attributes, a dwelf's personality is mostly determined by which society they lean toward; though many dwelves live on the razor's edge between their two opposing heritages, it is very rare that a dwelf is not biased to some degree towards one or the other. A more elven dwelf will tend towards its elven parent's demeanor, and vice versa.

Physical Description: A dwelf is stout, pointy-eared, and, because of the racial divide between gruffness and gracefulness, the general effect is awkward and confused. The dwelf's skin, hair, and eyes can be any color that an elf's or dwarf's could be, depending on the features of their parents. Their clothes are very practical; depending on how close they were to their parents' respective societies, they may wear colorful clothes, plain earth tones, or a mixture of both.

Relations: The dwelf rarely gets along with most other races. They are shunned by elves and dwarves, and usually retains their dwarven enmity with orcs and goblinoids.

Alignment: Although they may be influenced towards the lawfulness of the dwarves or the chaotic nature of the elves, they are usually so conflicted by their two bloodlines that they become true neutral.
