Line 169:
* ''[[Gold Digger (Comic Book)|Gold Digger]]'' Dwarves have optional beards on both sexes, no specific accents, aren't all short tempered and have plenty of non-miners, but otherwise fit the mold. A female Dwarf villain, G'nolga, insists that the beauty of dwarf women is legendary. While she and other dwarf females definitely don't look bad, one does wonder how much of this comes from her [[Hot Amazon|being acknowledged as one of the ten strongest fighters on the planet]].
* In ''[[Elf Quest]]'', even though they're called [[All Trolls Are Different|trolls]], they're identical in every way (except being green) to stereotypical Dwarves. However Two-Edge, a half-troll half-elf looks identical to a typical dwarf but is bat-shit insane.
* Dwarves of ''[[The Lands of Arran]]'' are short, resilient, strong, violent, often greedy, good at working stone and metal, don't like elves and orcs, have orderly caste based society (at least, theoretically) and their pantheon is more or less an abridged and cooperative [[Expy]] of the [[Norse Mythology|Norse]]. They have some berserkers (though obvious ones are exterminated, as heretical legacy of a defeated old faith) and minor rune magic is common. Then again, they as a rule don't live underground (though mine a lot), consider axe an improvised weapon or substitute for those prohibited from possessing swords, and there are dwarven farmers, dragon riders, assassins and [[Magnificent Bastard]]s.
