Clan Runehammer

=== Overview ===
Clan Runehammer is a Dwarven clan situated in the Eastern-most end of the High Kingdom of Khrumaz, in their home and clan capital of Durag'Aban. They are regarded for their scholarly pursuits, their zealous worship of the Ankora, and their magical pursuits within Khrumaz. Clan Runehammer is led by Vaelis I "The Wise" Runehammer, the High King of Khrumaz. The clan is entirely devoted to the Ankora, and their city of Durag'Aban is the center of the Ankoran Church. Oracle Durnhelm Runehammer seeks to record the history of Khrumaz in the National Archives, which will be made in Durag'Aban. They hold their heritage from multiple bloodlines of notable Dwarves and are considered an ancient and wise clan in Khrumaz.
=== History ===
==== The Two Clans ====
Clan Runehammer descends from two revered Dwarven lines, both known in their local regions for their great accomplishments throughout their realms. The royal line of House Ondas-Cyrii, the noble house of Dwarves that ruled the Dwarven city of Ondahstal in Escharia. They rose from nothing to become great nobles and leaders of a city of bustling Dwarven might. The clan of Dokam, descending from a Dwarven line based in Varn Torum, most notably held Sueyuet Dokam, the First Vakir of the Tokoran and later Ankoran faiths. Clan Dokam escaped the Dwarven slaughters in Varn Torum, when the government removed the last of the Dwarven populaton in Khun-Drakhar (the capital city of Varn Torum). The First Vakir then sounded the call for all Dwarves to flee the Old World and into the New World, and the line of Ondas-Cyrii met them (who had adopted the false last name of Runehammer in order to safely flee), alongside thousands of other Dwarves as told in the (link Ankoran az kron). 
=== Traits ===
Members of Clan Runehammer typically have brown or black hair, and blue or brown eyes. The traits of blue eyes and brown hair stem from Freya Runehand, and are typically the more dominant trait. The other traits stem from Ishgar "Stormbringer" Ironhammer.
=== Notable Members ===
==== Vaelis I "The Wise" Runehammer ====
Arugably the most well known member of Clan Runehammer, Vaelis Runehammer is the High King of the Dwarven realm named the High Kingdom of Khrumaz. He is the reigning lord of Durag'Aban, where the clan dwells in its near-entirety. Vaelis is the eldest of all Runehammers in the current generation, being born shortly before Kozar. He brought about the reforms that began the Khrumazi Golden Age after being given the throne in (season) of (#) V.E., as well as bringing about an era of faith in the Ankora to Khrumaz. 
==== Kozar Runehammer ====
Kozar Runehammer is the Second Vakir of the Ankoran faith. Praised throughout Khrumaz for bringing forth the light of the Ankora upon Abexilas. They are the elder brother of Durnhelm Runehammer. Kozar has brought the light of the Nine Gods, The Ankora, to Abexilas and has spread it throughout Khrumaz and seeks to bring it to the rest of the Dwarven race.
==== Durnhelm Runehammer ====
Durnhelm Runehammer is the Oracle of the Orthodox Ankoran Church, the largest sect of the Ankoran faith. He is a more scholarly and reserved Dwarf compared to his brother, Kozar. He seeks to compile a grand archive of Dwarven literature centered in Durag'Aban, as well as proselytizing the Ankora to Dwarves throughout Abexilas. He has taken upon an oath of silence to demonstrate his faith, though occasionally the Nine Gods will utilize him as their voice in the mortal world, granting him the ability to speak again for a temporary amount of time (such as when he spoke at the Second Summit of the Great Guild of Dwarves).
==== Sylvaar Runehammer ====
Sylvaar Runehammer is a notable architect in Clan Runehammer, renowned within the clan for the great construction projects they undertook alongside Nebularanger in Durag'Aban. Sylvaar is a second cousin to Vaelis, Kozar, and Durnhelm Runehammer. 
==== Ulthar Runehammer ====
Ulthar Runehammer was a prominent scholar, warrior, and the grandfather of Vaelis, Kozar, and Durnhelm. He favored his eldest son, Rurik, who would inherit leadership of Clan Runehammer upon his death. He would give his life at the Battle of Vel-Ukaad against a massive Orc force from the North, dying in Rurik's arms after a heroic defense attempting to hold the left flank while holding out for reinforcements. His final words followed as such:
"I see it now, the halls of Valaam. O' my son, my body may die, but my spirit shall not.
Long after my body is burnt and its ashes scattered to the wind, I shall aid you from mountain, shade, and hollow, though you will not know it until you arrive in the halls of the Ancestors as I will now.
Tokad is calling me to his side now, one day he will call you as well, my son. You must be strong enough to accept it."
He is now revered as an Ancestor of Clan Runehammer, one of the most recent of Clan Runehammer's lineage. He is now prayed towards (alongside the rest of the Ankora) when a member of Clan Runehammer (or any Dwarf of Durag'Aban) needs blessings granted for scholarly pursuits or warrior prowess.
