The Yorinthian are a people of the dwarf, not a separate lineage — draconic influence is cultural worship, and the frost appearance is climate, not blood. The Yorinthian dwarves serve the ancient dragon goddess Nabuhe in the frozen wastes of Hannoweir, where they have been shaped by millennia of harsh winters and draconic influence. Their hearts have grown as cold as the glacial halls they inhabit, and their cruel philosophies reflect the unforgiving nature of their patron deity. They view mercy as weakness and believe that only through suffering can one achieve true strength.

These pale, frost-touched dwarves have developed a rigid hierarchy based on their ability to endure and inflict hardship. Their ice-blue eyes show little warmth, and their elaborate codes of conduct prioritize duty to Nabuhe above all personal bonds or mortal concerns.
