The Duergar, unhallowed dwarf under the mountain

The Duergar became a race unto themselves when the Tai Lia tiefling overlords of old Khepathia wished to have their dwarven underlings conscripted to the same infernal pact that they themselves had been submitted to so many thousands of years before. The result was a horned race of savage and ugly dwarves, unable to write runes and unable to join civilization. The Dwarves of Gaulthum behold this race with a mix of sadness and hatred. The lower pits of Orotyr are bereft with a plague of this fecund breed and left unchecked, many fear may one day present a very real threat to the City of Gaulthum.
