Alignment.
Duergar were at heart a grim and bitter race, pessimistic of their future and deeply cynical regarding the motives of others. In a dark inversion of the strong family bonds typical of their dwarven kin, Duergar viewed their kin and clan as adversaries set on holding them back, an expectation that became a self-fulfilling prophecy since every Duergar came to believe this from early childhood. As a result, Duergar were a dark and cruel race, who showed no mercy to their foes and who took great pleasure in inflicting pain on others, a welcome relief from what they believed was a meaningless life, that would end, inevitably, in betrayal.
