This page is about the various deep dwarf monsters. For the player race, see deep dwarf.
Deep dwarves are a strange people who live deep in the cold earth, worshiping gods of death and practicing Necromancy. They do not heal naturally but are generally well-armed, and their deep dwarf damage shaving provides surprising resilience to all forms of harm.
Hostile deep dwarves have largely been phased out of Crawl, as their lack of regeneration made fighting them very low-risk. While they were still present, they could occasionally be found roving in the Abyss, though you might also have encountered them in various death- and necromancy-themed branches and vaults. Nowadays, if you see a deep dwarf, it's usually a shapeshifter.
