They call themselves Belters and are uncannily tall and lanky and speak in kind of a Creole mash-up accent and language

Er, I suspect you’ve got that exactly backwards.

They call themselves Dverger and are uncannily squat and heavily built and speak in a kind of German/Mongol mash-up accent and language.

And carry picks and axes and wear helmets and beards.
