Given his recolection of things long past and the name, might it be possible that Undershaft was a dwarf?--[[User:Zor|Zor]] 23:04, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
:Hmm. The Dwarves do opera, and the name fits, but is there any specific suggestion? --[[User:Old Dickens|Old Dickens]] 23:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

::I think it's very unlikely. There's no evidence other than the name. We are explicitly told in {{M}} that dwarfs are only interested in opera that features dwarfs, even though a handful do show up at the Opera House every so often. True, he could be an exception to the rule ([[Giamo Casanunda|Other dwarfs]] have been exceptions to standard dwarfish behavior), but there's also a scene where Agnes refers to Undershaft, Salzella, and Bucket as "the three men", when they're trying to figure out how to explain that she's going to ghost Christine's role.

::I can go through Maskerade to find more stuff, though. [[User:TC01|TC01]] 03:07, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
Well there are oddball dwarves and such in the Discworld Universe allready which don't confine to traditional norms about dwarfishness, and frankly an interest in opera is not going to raise that much attnetion among dwarfs when compared to being openly female or having an active Libedo--[[User:Zor|Zor]] 20:26, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
