[@TemplarKnight07]Perhaps an unsuccessful Vermintide, a strike back by my race, and then another Vermintide that was more or less a Draw, but left the Low-ways ruined for recent use? [@RisenDead][@Lauder]I've not fully read y'alls sheets yet but I'm sure my guys would have fought/aided in your war as well at some point. Sorry it took me so long to start this. [hider=W.I.P.][center][h1][b]The High Kingdom of Thundrim Kadrin[/b][/h1][img]http://images.ctrustnetwork.com/static_pages/gaming/world_of_warcraft/races/dwarves/dwarf.crest.jpg[/img] [hr][hr][/center] [b][h2]Overview[/h2][/b] The High Kingdom is a nation comprised of the hardy, skilled, and venerable Dwarven race. Comprised of various Thanes beholden to a High King within the mountains of their sea-locked nation. They're master artisans, soldiers, miners, and brewmasters. [b][h2]Geography[/h2][/b][hider=Map Claim][img]https://s10.postimg.org/9yzr05ond/blank_latminis_by_magnysovich.png[/img] [/hider] [b][h2]History[/h2][/b] Self explanatory, what are some major events/figures in your history? Any historical rivalries or encounters between you and other nations/races? What about alliances and stuff? [b][h2]Government[/h2][/b] All Dwarves are governed by High King Branack Grimbeard, who has 12 lesser Thanes that rule great Dwarf holds, and Stewards that rule lesser regions and outposts. While Thundrim Kadrin has a strong central government, there is a checks and balances system provided with the High Council, comprised of the nations Thanes, War heroes, Honored Longbeards, and the High Priest. Every Thane has a small number of retainers, included but not limited to an Honored Scribe (who records grudges in the Book of Reckoning), a Rune Priest, and a Master of Economics. [b][h2]Race Description[/h2][/b] [center][img]http://pro.bols.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/art-05.jpg?51ba09[/img][/center] A Dwarf stands 4 to 4 1/2 feet tall. Males are typically 180-200 pounds, while females weigh between 140 and 160. The males have well groomed and long facial hair. Contrary to popular belief, females do not have beards. Though they pride themselves on their long braids of hair as the males do with facial hair. A Dwarf has a life expectancy close to 400 years. While some Elves might use magic to increase their lifespan, some Dwarves do so out of sheer willpower. They are organized, brilliant tacticians, ingenuitive, strong willed, strong of arm, enduring, and resistant to magic and poison (though not immune). They can smell freshly cut stone, can spot imperfections of metal and stone as 2nd nature, and have a 6th sense of knowing where they are at all times underground, within a mountain, or great structure of stone. [b][h2]Culture[/h2][/b] [b][h2]Economy/Industry[/h2][/b] The Dwarven economy is based upon crafting, mining, gunpowder, engineering, brewing of ale, and exploration. Great deposits of stone and precious metals and gems are located within the Great Mountains of Thundrim Kadrin even to this day. [b][h2]Magic[/h2][/b] What kind of magics does your race use if at all? If they don't use magic, do they have some other method of using something close? You can just copy the "lores" of magic from any generic fantasy universe (ie Lore of Flames, Lore of Night, etc); if you an other player both use the same lores or one of the same lores, then please do talk to them about this. I'd prefer that everyone using Lore of Flames knows exactly what a fireball does rather than having to deal with 4 different types of them.
