The Dwarves are one of many races in RuneScape. They live predominately in Keldagrim, their capital city, but are also found in various mines and settlements across Gielinor.

In stature, Dwarves tend to be shorter than humans, usually being slightly above human-waist height. They are long-lived, although they tend to be gruff and short in temper. They are particularly fond of ale and often have long beards. Dwarves are particularly well known for being excellent blacksmiths, miners, and craftsmen. Dwarves often use battleaxes and warhammers of all kinds, though some also use crossbows. They live longer than humans, as Veldaban mentions that his father Dondakan is older than 150 years.
