Dwarves

History
The Mighty Dwarves

The Dwarves. A proud, tough, caring, yet resilient race. They were created only a couple thousand years ago by the Forgotten Ones and since then have flourished into a very prominent and fearsome race. With their love for ores and gemstones, they're unending quest to dig is an intense one, but reaps many fine rewards. Dwarf cities will often be riddled with lava and gemstones to signify their conquest unto the deep caverns. Not only are the Dwarves known for their conquest of the earths rare resources, but they are also very skilled fighters. Although most prefer heavy weapons such as axes and swords, there are the occasional assassins and hunters with their pet wolves. They are feared in battle and their drunken rage is one to be weary of. Traditionally, Dwarves are chronic drinkers, their love for fine ales is uncanny and can often get them into real trouble. Regardless of their flaws, they are a very noble and trustworthy race who are more than willing to let outsiders in to help their economy, and military ranks thrive.

The Triumvirate

Before the Triumvirate, the Dwarves had no home town, no city. Nothing. Most Dwarves lived alone in small caves or at most in small tribes of about 3 or 4. One day, 3 Dwarves by the names; Keltiss, Belgrum and Maven met when going about their day to day business. They talked about how living alone is hard work and that by working together they could achieve so much more. So right then and there, the 3 Dwarves teamed up and set sail on a 3 day long voyage to find where they should establish their new found land. After days of hardship and gruesome combat with the elements and the monsters that inhabited the lands, they arrived to their desired location. They dug, crafted, built the most magnificent entrance in all the world and continue to build a small village to populate their newfound city. After many days of crafting, they settled down after dinner to decide on a name for their city. After hours of deciding, they had their new city name. That name........was Hammerfall. ~ Original lore of Aeonis
