Glacier Dwarves

T
oldun Nordorthak- the ones who stayed
behind. That's what they called themselves
when most of our people fled the barren
wastes of Frostfell. Whether they were too
stubborn to leave, or too thirsty for the blood of
the giants, we do not know. " --- Branthyr, of
Clan Mroranon

Dwarf Traits
Your dwarf shares a number of inborn abilities with their
brethren of other clans, but there are some slight differences
in the conditioning of their bodies.
Ability Score Increase. Your Constitution score increases
by 2.
Age. Dwarves age at the same rate as humans, but are
considered young until the age of 50. While it is possible for a
Glacier Dwarf to live beyond 300 years, the harsh conditions
and the constant wars with the frost giants make it a very
rare occurrence.
Alignment. Most dwarves are lawful, believing firmly in
order and justice. Glacier dwarves tend to be fairly neutral in
other matters, as they do not possess the luxury of well-
defined morals.
Size. Dwarves stand between 4 and 5 feet tall and average
about 150 pounds.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 25 feet. Your speed is
not reduced by wearing heavy armor.
Darkvision. Glacier dwarves are accustomed to life in
caverns deep beneath the ground. They can see in dim light
within 60 feet as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it
were dim light.
Dwarven Resilience. Unlike the dwarves of the mainland,
glacier dwarves possess an innate resistance to cold instead
of poison. You have advantage on saving throws against the
effects of cold, and have resistance to cold damage.
Dwarven Combat Training. You have proficiency in the
battleaxe, handaxe, spear, and warpick.
Tool Proficiency. You gain proficiency with the artisan's
tools of your choice: smith's tools, mason's tools, or brewer's
supplies.
Icebound Navigation. Whenever you make a Wisdom
(Survival) check related to navigating forzen territory, you are
considered proficient in the Survival skill and add double
your proficiency bonus to the check, instead of your normal
proficiency bonus.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write Dwarvish and
Common.
Glacier Dwarf Traits
As a glacier dwarf, you are native to the highest mountain
peaks, where your kin dwell within massive ice packs.
Glacier dwarves have a parcticularly fierce rivalry with frost
giants, and their wars crack the ice for miles around.
Ability Score Increase. Your Strength and Dexterity
scores are both increased by 1.
Ice Walk. You can move across and climb icy surfaces
without needing to make an ability check. Additionally,
difficult terrain composed of ice or snow doesn’t cost you
extra moment.
