Semeru Dwarves
Dwarves of Larracos
The ninth-floor dwarves worship only Ysalte and expect their goddess to appear as final teams approach Larracos.
Story so far
Allister records that every Semeru dwarf follows a single earth-and-water goddess. Her only temple in the dungeon belongs to them, and crawler worship of her may be impossible.
Their legends call her the Downward Spiral and disagree about whether she is Scolopendra's daughter, sister, or mother. Her intervention is associated with the final approach to Larracos during Faction Wars.
Appearance
Armored dwarves gathered at a lone temple beneath a spiral earth-and-water emblem.
Role
The faction carries Ysalte's principal worship and her link to the next floor's war.
Relationships
Ysalte — They worship her exclusively.
Larracos — Their goddess appears as teams approach its gates.
ScolopendraBk 5 — Their legends offer conflicting family ties between her and Ysalte.
