Welcome to Curious Quill, an original content resource for d20 roleplaying.
This season, we are focusing on smalfolk. Many worlds have their own smalfolk such as gnomes and halflings. The little people of Taluma are called urchins We will be detailing their culture and traditions. You will find entries on things like their locations, festivals, attire, and privisions.
Follow the urchin tag to read all the entries about them.
Dwarven Winter Festival
The dwarves of Taluma have two primary celebrations throughout the year, celebrating the advancement of the year, but more importantly honoring their tutelary deities Sol and Eosta, the Lord and Lady of the sun and Eost, the planet: fire and earth. They occur at the beginning and midpoint of what the dwarves consider a year, starting with the rise of the sun on the winter solstice and the midway point of the summer solstice.

Dwarf Beverages
Though dwarves are known for consumption of ale, there are actually few dwarven brews, instead they purchase barrels from humans and they drink it like water - to them it is a ‘soft’ drink, and even youth drink it seemingly unaffected by its low alcohol content. They make their own spirits from other sources than grain.
