Warforged

Understand this race may be tweaked during play as issues arrive.

## Moradin's Blessing

While in the early days of the 1st Sanctus Era The War of the Races had many dwarven craftsmen working on building golems to bolster the ranks of Thom Lodahr. One craftsman named ***Tedari Oathsmith*** would take his focus away from the war attempting to save his son. Moradin seeing this man work tirelessly would come to the man's shop helping him create the *Warforged*. Saving thousands of sick dwarves the process of their souls being transferred into the *Warforged* bodies would become a blessing and a curse.

## The Exile of the Warforged

With many of the *Warforged* being children in powerful bodies not many able to understand the tactics of war, some amongst them were soldiers and adults. With The War of the Races continuing to heat up the Emperor Thogur Hammerheart would order the *Warforged* to kill innocent lives of other races. Taking a stand based on their honor and previous aliegence to Baern Dragonbane, Emperor Hammerheart would have them locked away deep in the mountain.

## Warforged vs Iron Dwarves

With Thogur Hammerheart his wife Tola Hammerheart and the craftsman of the Iron Dwarves (Soulstone Golems) Korir Gemcarver having completed a ritual to become litches, some of the *Warforged* were set free. Lead by Aegis, a force of *Warforged* was tasked by Thokyl Farwalker with standing vigil over Thom Lodahr. This conflict would span tens of thousands of years.

## Retaking the Throne

With the assistance of The Burning Phoenix Guild, the tyranny of the Triumverant of Dwarven litches was dealt with. Taking the seat of power in Thom Lodahr, Aegis as the prime *Warforged* began the only *Warforged* city in the world. While some souls are ancient dwarves those few souls which are strong enough to make the transition.
