DuergarThis bald, long-bearded dwarf has dull gray skin, low arching brows, and eyes that seem to absorb rather than reflect the light.Duergar CR 1/3Source Pathfinder RPG Bestiary pg. 117 XP 135 Duergar warrior 1 LE Medium humanoid (dwarf) Init –1; Senses darkvision 120 ft; Perception +1DefenseAC 17, touch 9, flat-footed 17 (+6 armor, –1 Dex, +2 shield) hp 8 (1d10+3) Fort +4, Ref –1, Will +1; +2 vs. spells Immune paralysis, phantasms, poison Weaknesses light sensitivityOffenseSpeed 20 ft.

Duergar dwell in communities deep underground, and appear as darker, more twisted versions of their kinder kin. Their skin is a dull gray, as though rubbed with dust or ash, but this is a natural coloration that better allows them to blend with their underground surroundings. They are a race of slavers, but while non-dwarven prisoners are usually put to backbreaking work, dwarven prisoners are generally slain on the spot.
In combat, duergar fire crossbows from a distance, then shift to the warhammer after a few rounds. If outnumbered, or given sufficient threat (and space), a duergar will use its enlarge person ability and begin lashing out at its enemies.Creatures in "Duergar" Category
