There's a bunch of races in the mod that simply are not very related to vanilla Terraria, it bugs me out personally. The Mod Mostly just panders to the idea of being a furry in Terraria, which is cool but there is a lot missed potential.

We need a Dwarven race with some Abilities:

+Increased base mining speed. should be self-explanatory

- Dwarves are shorter, so they have a decrease in block placement range

+ Dwarves would have better vision in the dark by default.

-Dwarves have smaller legs, and hence have slightly less Jump height and/or movement speed.

+ Natural Toughness, Dwarves start with an increased base defense of 5. since they are tough as stone.
