Half-Dwarg

Half-dwargs are the children of humans and dwargs. The shared headstrong hardiness of these converging linneages make them some of the most durable people in Erdenfold, rivaled only by the Orcs. Because of this, combined with their above-average physical strength, half-dwargs typically get by in human cities as soldiers, stonemasons, and metalworkers.

Darkvision. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Mixed Upbringing. You have proficiency in two skills of your choice. Additionally, you have expertise in one type of artisan's tools.

Natural Storyteller. You have advantage on Intelligence (History) and Charisma (Performance) checks when recalling lore related to your dwargish ancestry.

Endurance. You have advantage on Constitution saving throws against exhaustion due to overexertion.

Description:
Standing at around 4 to 5 feet tall and weighing about 120 to 200 pounds, a half-dwarg's proportions are about that of a particularly stocky human. They don't quite have the earthen shell of a full dwarg, but their skin is still significantly darker and rougher than that of a typical human.
