Oi!
This are my first attempt at modding in order to make Dwarf Fortress a bit more interesting for me'self. What do you think of these two races?
~~
THE TROWUnimportant Descriptive TextThe mound folk, leprechaun, tomte, boggart, brownie. Hobbit, if you like. Trow in particular are from Orkney, an island just off Scotland and are mix of myths brought along by sailors. Trows were traditionally ugly and wizened, so they filled their homes with gems and wore fine jewelry. The general stories of little men became mixed with Scandinavian trolls or perhaps even old Germanic drow. Thus, Trow. In Dwarf Fortress the Trow have two real uses to players, they are stout like a dwarf, so they trade with the dwarves clothes they can actually keep. Second, they love gems, and trade a lot of those too!
As a final note, they are a people that live by luck, at worldgen they could get wiped out or take over a large area since they are so adventurous they spread out across the map.

Gurt Hound, garmr, gwyllgi, the Padfoot and maybe even Cerberus was one. They were associated with the Devil at times, or storms, but always death. A weird bunch, the Barghest, based on British stories of the Black Dog, goblin-phantoms that fortell men's death. In Dwarf Fortress because they lack hands they all become wrestlers, but, because they steal children, their needs are tended by the slaves. Their main uses for the player is just for a change of pace as far as amushes go. You'd think a weaponless race would die out, but their animal attacks, breeding and utter orderliness keeps them ahead of the pack. I kept in all the various clothes items even though they rarely wear them just on the odd chance you'll see one with some clothes on. Gives you a real sence of how weird they are when one charges at you naked except for a hat.
