PFS StandardDwarf Stonecaster

All dwarves share a connection to the earth, but stonecasters have focused and polished that connection. Their years of meditation have granted them the ability to create boulders and shake the very earth. These elemental specialists are often highly respected in their community, which prizes their art of geomancy. Young dwarves who show a stronger than normal connection to the earth might be sent to a stonecaster to train at an early age.

Source Monster Core pg. 135
A dwarf's strength comes from their stoic determination, quality equipment, and their ability to hold grudges for centuries.

Sidebar - Additional Lore Clan Memory

Dwarves often have strong connections to their family and their clan. The grudges held by members of such clans are shared among its members and across generations. However, the honor of their friends is also shared in the same way. This can sometimes lead to a dwarf having a strong opinion about a person based on the actions of an ancient relative.
