* Dwarvish history begins while enslaved by the Lizardmen. Alongside humans, Ogres, Elves, and Orcs they rebelled after a great comet fell. 
* Dwarves and Elves ruled the T9A Old World, although most Elves took to the sea and colonized the western continents. Western Dwarves controlled the White Mountains (Worlds Edge Mountains). Humans established far-off kingdoms in T9A Cathay and T9A Nehekhara. Dwarves in the east formed friendly relations with the Dwarves of the west. Dwarves found conflict with Wood Elves over logging. 
* T9A Beastmen suddenly appeared and tried to destroy civilization while the Orcs betrayed the other races and waged war on them. Dwarves called on humans and Elves for aid, but both were too involved in their own wars. 
* Dwarves hid in their Holds and tried to survive until Avras, T9A Rome, was founded by a living goddess Sunna who allied with the Dwarves. After Sunna ascended the Dwarves reclaimed territory and built a giant wall for Avras. 
* T9A Skaven appeared and conquered Avras before turning against the Dwarves. 
* East Dwarves AKA T9A Chaos Dwarves, the Infernal Dwarves. turned to experimenting with magic, burning their homeland and opening a hole into the realm of the evil gods which let Daemons into the world. The forces of destruction fought each other while the Dwarves of the west hid. 
* Sunna returned and reclaimed Avras by leading the refugees (T9A Empire, T9A Bretonnia).
* Dwarves want to work with the other races to bring back the second age, but are wary of the other races even if they know its the only way to survive. 
* Norse Dwarfs are now Jotin Dwarfs, and are fantastically wealthy albeit entirely isolated thanks to the many dangers between them and any trade partners. A small number of Jotun Dwarfs who attempted to forge a trade route between them and Avras were unable to find their Hold when they returned, and have spent many years roaming in bands among the peaks atop their [[bear cavalry|tamed bear mounts]], shunning contact from all others including other Dwarfs out of shame. One is named, Gorik Bearblood, who has gone mute.
