What are you feelings about dwarven women and beards? While it's not common to see in mainstream D&D artwork, I've always imagined traditional dwarven women with facial hair (or at least a nice thick set of muttonchops). Dwarven ladies that shave are beards are rebels (much like Violet in Rat Queens) or those that spend more time with non-dwarves than their kin.

Beard or No Beard
Thanks to my good friend, Tim Knight, I've recently discovered Northumbrian Tin Soldier. While looking at their site, I noticed they have several bearded dwarven lady miniatures.

What are you thoughts? Do your female dwarves typically have facial hair?

Pleased to hear you've discovered one of of my favourite figures manufacturers. I tend to agree with you on dwarven women's facial hair - but also can't remember EVER having a PC female dwarf in our group!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we have either.
DeleteDepends on the setting and my player's choice. I've never felt strongly enough about it to make it a feature one way or another.
ReplyDeleteIt's never been a big deal in my games, just some flavor I like to add. That being said I don't know that I've ever had a female dwarf player in my games.
