Was just thinking about how much I am going to miss Zalanthan Dwaves after this incarnation of the game ends.
I've talked to a lot of people who have said they've never played a dwarf and don't think they could deal with the whole focus thing.
My hopes are that every player will try them at least once before they are gone for good, and one of the hardest parts of playing a dwarf IS having a good focus that is neither too limiting nor too easy, so hopefully you will find one here that might suit your fancy.

Goal : 101 Dwarven Foci
Rules: Each post must contain ONE focus, no more, no less.
             (Even if you leave comments on another, you still have to leave one of your own.)

And there was some dwarf smoking spice, and I thought that was so scandalous because I'd only been playing in 'nak.

Dwarves won't be a playable race in Armageddon Reborn.  We, as players, have no idea when the first game will end and the second begin.  Could be three months, could be thirty years.

Also.. you forgot to leave a focus. :D

#23) Open the first Half-Giant only shop and corner the market.

Epicurean dwarves:


To discover all the seasonings of the world.

To find the one drink that is the perfect accompaniment for roasted scrab head.

To gather a collection of every cooking utensil possible to get in the known.
