Default Re: Our dwarves are different

Most fantasy dwarves however seem to be Northern European in flair. They often have all that stuff mentioned about ancestor veneration, reciprocity, and totemism(usually they make a bigger deal then elves about craftsmanship, and they like geological things better then biological). The fact is a lot of all that stuff isn't distinctly Asian; it is it's local aesthetic that marks it.
