I always loved the Narnian dwarves... they were everything a "dwarf" usually is - short, hairy, bearded, geologically minded - and their fighting skills could match any human warrior and even more than one. The thing I liked, though, is that there was no one that could match them in their archery. That's something that usually goes to elves, not dwarves.


Otherwise, I love the dwarves from Dragonage. The caste system that so closely resembles fuedal Japan is very versatile and easy to adapt to any "world."
