[Rq-rules] Dwarves re-envisioned.

[Bjorn Stolen]

I just wanted to say that I loved this interpretation of dwarves. The last bit, about becoming mortal and reproducing is somthing I allso have incorporated to my mostali dwarves (but they have to abandon their strongholds and wander about in order to achieve this, and I never let the player who currently is a dwarf really know wether he's still imortal or not and wether he can reproduce or not.
