	Urdunnir can walk through solid stone as if it were air, and manipulate stone at will - a common tactic is to drag an attacker partially or wholly into stone with them and then leave them there, which can imprison them or even kill them, depending on how they use this trait. By concentrating, they can also affect metal; they can use this to destroy an opponent's armor, or twist a metal weapon into uselessness as it hits them, which has the added effect of cushioning them from the blow. Like dwarves, urdunnirin have a clan-based society, with each clan specializing in finding and shaping a certain substance. Known clans include Marble, Gold, and Ruby. Each clan is lead by an ''Alird'', or "Gold Lord", who can shape metal as intuitively as other urdunnir can shape stone.

	They were subsequently updated to [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]] in two [[splatbook]]s; "Monsters of Faerun" covered them as monsters, whilst [[~~Races of X\|~~Races of Faerun]] presented them as a playable race, expanding significantly upon their lore in the process. According to 3e, Urdunnir believe themselves to have been chosen by [[Dumathoin]], and have a strangely [[druid]]ic (or [[elf]]in) perspective; unlike other dwarves, they have no real martial traditions, but instead seek to live in harmony with their environment. They see Dumathoin’s vast creation as a great sea of earth and stone, ever-changing and always beautiful. They view their role in the world as that of both observer and artisan, working in harmony with Dumathoin’s creation to unlock the secrets the Silent Keeper has hidden within. Their culture is extremely conservative, and defined by their pursuit of ever-greater skill in crafting stone, gems and metal. Adventuring urdinnir are extremely rare... but, they do exist.

	The existence of uirdunnir in the [[Nentir Vale]] setting comes from the Essentials splatbook "Heroes of the [[Elemental Chaos]]", and consists of a single short sidebar. Urdunnir dwarves are a culture of [[Underdark]]-dwelling dwarves who have been blessed by [[Dumathoin]] (described here as an [[Archomental\|~~elementall~~ lord]]) with earth elemental powers, which is mechanically handled by the entire race having the Earthforger character theme. They are described as the best metalworkers and artisans of all the dwarven peoples, using their elemental powers to reach weird veins of metal that no ordinary dwarf can access - a peaceful people by preference, but also willing to battle against the evil races of the Underdark.
