Marsh dwarves are a clan of roughly 200 dwarves who have lived in the Lone Heath for as long as they can remember, though they do not keep ancestral records. They live very differently than most other dwarves, keeping their own calendar, with Brewfest as the end of the year. Like all residents of the Lone Heath, they do not build permanent structures, which also sets them apart from other dwarves, and they tend to move their camps just after Brewfest.
