#dwarf tattoos

[mrkida-art]

Been showing some of this on discord today, some of you may be interested so here's some of my own tolkien dwarf world building/hc notes (there is a lot so these are snippets). Beware, it's personal notes of mine so there may be grammatical errors as well as typos haha.

cw for pregnancy, and death (and child death) mentions, as well as other darker themes such as child soldiers

CONFESSION:

I just adore the Dwarven style tattoos, meant to mark someone as caste-less. I feel weird when I see it on non-dwarves though, they aren't caste-less obviously... Caste-less are based on the "untouchables" in hindu society, forbidden from meaningful livings based on who they were born to.
