Among Mountain Dwarves, cutting off the beard is reserved for those who are being punished for a great crime, for the longer the beard, the more stature the dwarf has.<ul><li>Mountain Dwarf Names: A Mountain Dwarf\u2019s first name, can virtually be anything (sometimes it\u2019s something like \u201cForge\u201d named after what they use), sometimes it\u2019s a sound (Kachang), and sometimes it\u2019s a random selection of words (Kredell) \u2013 what\u00a0<em>is<\/em>\u00a0important to a Mountain Dwarf is the last name, which is highly regarded to uphold an honor (which is typically combined words as Flamestrike, Forgemaker, Swordcutter, etc).<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><em>Hill Dwarves<\/em>: These are the dwarves that have chosen to live among men, and human communities, outside of the mountains. They are very much like their cousins, the Mountain Dwarves, in almost every regard; except Hill Dwarves have lost the desire to dig; rather they focus on forging. They also have done away with the tradition of growing out their beards, and never cutting them.<ul><li>Hill Dwarf Names: They are frequently combined words of their surrounding nature (Hilltop, Greystone, Moonriver, etc).
