The Dwarka are the only native species in Deadstar to maintain control of their home planet. The dominant society of Chameiro, the Dwarka hive closely resembles Human society, with sophisticated hierarchy and relative individualism.

The Dwarka’s reclusive nature and adversarial relationship with Human society makes cataloguing the inner workings Dwarkan society difficult. It is, however, well documented that Dwarka are natural miners. They construct vast underground tunnels that serve first as resource extraction and then as real estate for infrastructure and engineering.

Short and dense with a chitin shell exterior, the Dwarka are naturally built to defend. Their fleshy interior is pale and soft, not dissimilar to Human skin. Dwarkan eyes protrude from the top of their heads in the form of long opposable antenna-like stalks.
