Sand dwarves are mainly found in desert areas<br />
<br />
==Description==<br />
Sand dwarves are slightly taller than {{5ep|Mountain Dwarf|mountain dwarves}}, some actually topping 5 feet, but much thinner (for a dwarf). In fact, some who meet a sand dwarf for the first time mistake them for some kind of elf (a comparison that neither race is fond of). Their skin is reddish-gold, and most have golden-yellow eyes and bright red hair.<br />

<br />
===Psychology===<br />
Quick to anger and to laugh, sand dwarves' mood changes as quick as a flash of the sun off an axe blade. <br />
<br />
====Honor====<br />
Sand dwarves hold their personal and family honor above all else. <br />
<br />
====Hospitality====<br />
Sand dwarves have a strict code of hospitality. <br />
<br />
A guest in your house, while in your house, is royalty. A sand dwarf would spend his last copper and scrap of food to make his guest comfortable, fed, and happy. Any insult by a guest is overlooked while in your home. However, after leaving the home, any slight that was made is open to grudge and retribution. <br />
<br />
As a guest, a sand dwarf will do everything he can to give and bring honor to his host. Every kindness shown the sand dwarf is heaped with praise.<br />

===Culture=== <br />
Most sand dwarves are nomatic, migrating the arid wastes from oasis to oasis and cavern to cavern. This is likely done as a conservation measure, so as to not tax any given area's plant life and water beyond its capacity to recover.<br />
<br />
===Sand Dwarf Adventurers===<br />
The two most common reasons for a sand dwarf to go adventuring is either he has been overcome with wanderlust or he has committed a breech of etiquette that brought dishonor on his family or himself.<br />
<br />
===Sand Dwarf Names===<br />
While sand dwarves share first names with the the rest of the dwarven race, they have adopted some unique family names in addition to the traditional family names.<br />
:'''Family Names: ''' Airdrinker, Deeproots, Longmarcher, Sandsniffer, Stormburnt<br />
