=Dwarfism (-1 SM)==
{{Disadvantage}}{{Physical}}{{Mundane}}
{{-15 points}}

You are abnormally short for your species. Regardless of ST, your height falls below the lowest value on the [[Build Table]] – under 4'4," for a human. This gives you [[Size Modifier]] -1. Choose your weight from the first line of the Build Table and reduce it by 15%.

You have -1 to [[Basic Move]] (short legs). In combat, your reach is reduced by 1 yard. This is partly because you have short arms and partly because you must use scaled-down weapons (regardless of your ST, your arms lack the leverage to control full-sized weapons).

You get -2 to [[Disguise]] – or to [[Shadowing]], if your are trying to follow someone in a crowd. In backward settings, the GM may require you to take a [[Social Stigma]] if you suffer from Dwarfism.

A member of ''any'' race may be a dwarf. Scale down height by a factor of 0.75 from the racial average, and modify racial SM by -1. Otherwise, the rules remain the same.
