Durin's Folk

## History Of Durin's Folk At The Server

Durins Folk has never had many players, but it was still one of the factions most active in wars. Many battles were fought against the orc hoards.

Durin's Folk's capital moved from Iron Hills to Grey Mountains. At one point even Moria was going to be made, but the builder changed faction in the middle of construction. Also Erebor is being constructed, but still need a King.

At one point the ruler of Durin's Folk was evil, then when he saw that there wasn't many good players he realized he had to go good. Thats where the wars started, also because the king of Gundabad returned.

## Wars

### War Of Dwarves & Orcs

Durins Folk fought many battles, but is still at war with Gundabad as the war of Orcs and Dwarves hasnt ended yet, but is comeing to an end. Durins Folk has won more battles than what it has lost, at one point it took Mt. Gundabad, but then it was given back to the orcs.

First battle, the first battle was an amaizing victory for Durins Folk as it helped to chear the dwarves up this battle took place at Dagorlad.

Second battle, this battle was at the gates of the fort in the Iron Hills, there two armies were waiting Dain II, but still they got defeated by the dwarf and his army, the leader of one of the armies was Azog, the other one was the Goblin King (He is no longer the Goblin King)

The third battle, this battle took place in Mt. Gundabad, three armies went to help Azog, but none succeded, all orc armies were defeated, including the army inside Mt. Gundabad, the dwarves took over the moutain, then was retriven back by the orcs.

The fourth battle, this was a shameful defeat to Durins Folk, five armies gathered by the evil lords, Azog, Saruman, Bolg, Melkor and Khamul(Now, there is no khamul but all the other players still be as now), this took place at Mt. Gram.

### The Battles Against Umbar

Although Umbar is neutral Durin's Folk and Umbar fought two battles. The first battle was unfair for Durin's Folk as Shurtagul, King Of Umbar had charge on his weapon, which made him kill you with one hit. The Durin's Folk lost that battle and had to pay Umbar a sum of money. Most recently the charge has been deleted off of his weapon, so DainII decided to attack Umbar City with some allies. These allies were Ninthloin and Morwe, King of Dorwinion. DainII and his allies arrived with no armies, but Umbar had one waiting to attack. Shurtagul was killed by DainII using his hammer, resulting in Umbar City being taken by the Durin's Folk. Umbar wished for the city back so they paid a large sum to DainII and were given the city back.
