60 points.
Attribute Modifiers: ST +1 [10]; HT +2 [20].
Secondary Characteristic Modifiers: FP +1 [3]; HP +1 [2]; Will +1 [5].
Advantages: Extended Lifespan 2 [4]; Higher Purpose [5]; Infravision [10]; Magic Resistance 3 [6].
Disadvantages: Stubbornness [-5].
Features: If the dwarf is killed while having failed his Higher Purpose, he will return as an undead banshee haunting his unfinished works.
The Higher Purpose of a dwarf is referred to as his focus. This is a longer task that requires at least one week to complete, and the dwarf may choose a new one after finishing it.
The Magic Resistance of dwarves works explicitly against wizardly magic only (defiling or preserving). Alchemical potions/fruits work normally.
