Draphs are one of the playable races in the online Eastern RPG Granblue Fantasy, and have become an increasingly common sight on /tg/ since Granblue received its English translation in 2016. In their own setting, draphs are essentially the Dwarf race, being strong, tough and hardy warriors and miners... at least, they seem to be; Granblue isn't exactly forthcoming on its racial lore.
What makes draphs stand out from the typical dwarf is that, courtesy of JRPG and its love of doing weird slants on traditional races, draphs have a super weird case of sexual dimorphism (At least in a mammals, there are precedents among insects) going on. See, both sexes look like humans with pointy ears and horns (officially cow or goat like, but most people think they look like demons). But draph men are huge, burly guys, averaging around 220 centimeters tall, and draph women... are, well, the definition of shortstack, averaging at 120 centimeters tall and with great big breasts... no, we're not kidding - the smallest draph woman in canon so far is Yaia, at a D-cup, and she's 6 years old!
Since /tg/ always loves itself some monstergirls, draph women have become quite popular. Indeed, it's rare when a thread talking about dwarves comes up that draph women don't get mentioned, and there are anons who like to stir /tg/ up by asserting that the standard Tolkien-ripoff style dwarf is boring and dwarves would be more popular if they were replaced with draphs - or, at least, with draphs if draphs were comprised only of females and needed to mate with humans to propagate the species.
