What if you somehow constantly survive though everything. Only to find out that you are immortal, but by then it is too late! The whole world is gone and you are the last one left standing.
And all that there is left to do is wonder why you were the one who dosen't die for the rest of eternity!
I'd probably go crazy. Then I wouldn't care!

From Wikipedia:
Along with being physically deformed, Dwarfs were known as being excellent craftsmen, whose ability is partially god-like[8]; this has parallels with stunted and ugly craftsmen and wise people (witch and oracles) from other mythologies. Dwarves were magical creatures with huge skill at metallurgy, taking fame for making great artifacts of legend. Dvergar are famous for having created Skíðblaðnir, Gungnir, Draupnir, Mjolnir, etc.
The Dwarves of shared Germanic Mythology have left a heavy influence on modern fantasy and folklore. Concepts such as Dwarven short height, ugly features, and exceptional craftsmanship are commonplace in modern literature. The remnants of the original Dwarf formed later fairy tales and folklore (see English folklore, German folklore, and Dutch folklore).
Dwarves also shared characteristics with also creatures such as Trolls (though they were large in stature), and the Tomte.

But then, it depends on WHERE you're talking about.

« on: February 28, 2010, 06:07:22 pm »It does depend on which elf you're talking about. most are portrayed as little trickster thingies that lived in trees, and dwarves (at least in Norse Mythology) lived UNDERGROUND and made stuff for the gods and heroes. They didn't live in trees or act like stupid tricksters or anything.In mythology dwarfs were just elfs.Elfs and dwarfs were the same thing before tolkien bastardized them.
Actually, Elves were teeny little tree-living dudes and dwarves were pretty much the same. Bearded midgets that live underground and make kewl shiz.
They were the same thing.
