Asra Bank

The Asra Bank is one of the largest and most notable banks in the known world; created by the dwarven Clan Asra the bank saw widespread renown after the reclamation of the Gem of Asra which soon made it a trusted beacon and partner for dwarven merchants and families in the surface. Eventually clientele soon spread across non-dwarves in The Empire and beyond, with its branch in the capital of Auraire opening in 1411. 
The bank was also instrumental in the colonisation efforts during The Age of Unraveling and also provided dwarves with funding for creating their own independent settlements in The New World. By 1778 the Asra Bank had a branch in each major city in the world.
