==Naming Conventions== [[Elf|Elves]], Dwarves and [[Gnome|Gnomes]] all follow a similar pattern for their family names. It's very frequently AdjectiveNoun, but what types of Nouns are used differ. Dwarven nouns are usually metal or mineral - Stone, Iron, etc., or some solid object - Vault, Fist, etc. In this latter case, the adjective is usually a mineral or stone. Examples are StoneFist, StoneVault, GreyRock, FlintStone, WhiteMountain. Dwarves also commonly use "braggin' rights" as names - BridgeCrusher, OrcSlayer, GoblinHunter. Dwarven women take their husband's family name, and children take their father's name.
