The dwarves are now at your disposal after emerging from the caverns in Noble Fates Update 0.28.0.1.
Meet the Dwarves
Dwarves are facial-haired folk skilled in mining and crafting. They live longer than humans but they progress a bit slower. Dwarves generally dislike elves, but perhaps some arrangements can be made for them to work peacefully.
Because they are deep dwellers, dwarves need a cooler environment than other races in Noble Fates, so it's important to keep track of the temperature. To keep things cool, you can use the new Frostcaps as fuel for Coolers.
Frostcaps are a magical underground fungus found in caverns. While they're key to maintaining a cool environment, do not harvest all of them or you will disrupt the delicate ecosystem. Additionally, you can build a house with exhaust pipes and vents to regulate the heat.
Dwarves can also terraform terrain. If you're looking to build a castle on top of a hill and you cannot find a suitable location, just assign them to shape the terrain for you.
And lastly, dwarves like to drink for relaxation. To keep them satisfied, give them some of the new delicious dwarven concoctions, such as Cornshine, Octogin, Pumpdo, Mealidew, Strawshot, and Woodsky. They need a drink every three days, so do keep that in mind.
