Mul
This article is about the fictional fantasy race. [...]
Muls are the mixed-breed offspring of humans and dwarves in the Dark Sun campaign setting. The term mul is derived from "mule" which are sterile hybrids, and as such the word is meant to be pronounced in the same manner (rhyming with "rule" rather than "dull").
Women who give birth to muls tend to be human and die in childbirth. Muls are bred for gladiatorial combat and slave labor. Athasian muls are hairless, about 6 feet tall, retain the agility of their human parent while manifesting the strength and industrious mindset of their dwarven parent.
The stamina of a mul is legendary; muls can literally work or march for days nonstop.
The term "mul" has been unofficially adopted into other campaign settings for rare human-dwarf crossbreeds.
Since the "mule" pronunciation is distinctive to Dark Sun, it can be argued that on arm it's pronounced differently, but I've always used the DS pronunciation.
Before I learned that the official DS (and Armageddon I think) pronunciation was "mule", I always thought "mull" in my head.
I decided it's not worth the effort to change how I perceive it, though, especially since they won't be in Arm 2.0 anyway. :-\
Oh God. I'm such a wynner. I told you mothafuckaz four years ago!!!

When I hung out with Tlaloc in Texas, I found out that I pronounced just about everything wrong. :D
