Dwarves stand stout about four-feet tall and boast stocky bodies, heavy and thick with muscles. Indeed, dwarven women carry enough brawn to outmuscle most men of other races. Dwarven men prefer to keep thick beards that cover much of their face, and they wear it kempt or unkempt, braided or wild, as a sign of expression. |

Dwarves are a race of short people, but don't think of this as a disadvantage. Dwarves are superb fighters and are not known to show fear in battle. They don't tend to be a most intelligent group of people, or the most agile, but the huge axes that they are known to carry seem to balance this fact. |

Wisdom of the dwarves runs deep, and they pass their knowledge from parent to child to continue customs steeped in tradition. It is in this way, dwarves embed their knowledge within each generation and cleave their stories into the realm. |

Dwarves, with their stocky, strong builds, make excellent fighters or paladins. Their below average dexterity makes them clumsy thieves and their average wisdom only passable clerics. Due to their wanton disregard for the natural world, dwarves are not allowed to be druids. Dwarves just don't have the musical talent to be very good bards. Their lacking intelligence leaves them unqualified for elementalists, mages, and psions. |

Description
Dwarves stand stout about four-feet tall and boast stocky bodies, heavy and thick with muscles. Indeed, dwarven women carry enough brawn to outmuscle most men of other races. Dwarven men prefer to keep thick beards that cover much of their face, and they wear it kempt or unkempt, braided or wild, as a sign of expression.
Wisdom of the dwarves runs deep, and they pass their knowledge from parent to child to continue customs steeped in tradition. It is in this way, dwarves embed their knowledge within each generation and cleave their stories into the realm.
Commentary
There is possibly a typo/red herring here in that dwarves have started with high wisdom since the beginning of the "A3" incarnation, but their description has existed for far, far longer.
