## History

The city was founded in 29,021 BS by the dwarf lord Asmar I and became one of the three dwarf settlements. It was famed for being the only dwarf city situated in the West and was mainly used as a city for dwarves.

During the Fall of the Dwarves in 97 BS, Dragonbreath was mainly used as a refugee camp for dwarves however once the numbers were too massive, the king sent many of the dwarves to form their own home due to the lack of food. Dragonbreath from then on became the home to the "greatest weapons" in Fly, holding great spears and war hammers that "had never been used my mortal men."

Near the end of 30 AS, an orc army and eight dragons attacked the city. King Brom had no choice but to evacuate the city and make for Fallow. Several dwarves disagreed with this statement and instead decided to stay and fight. This was known to have failed. The city was abandoned.

## About

**Dragonbreath**was built upon the ruins of the old dwarf ruins in the Bronze Mountains, and was originally set up as the dwarf capital. It lost it's title later on by Diamore after it was founded and many dwarves headed east to be apart of that.

### Politics

Dragonbreath follows a monarch often in the feuding families of **Asmar**and **Rogana**. There has never really been any change in monarchy of the political system as the dwarves often believe it is a waste of time.

### Wars and other states of affairs

The city rarely becomes involved in wars, maintaining a close connection with nearby cities and tradepoints as the dwarves know that the humans would easily crush the dwarves together. Instead, the dwarves become involved in war in the event that other dwarven colonies are in danger such as the War of Slavery in which they led most of the war.

### The City

Dragonbreath is a city carved out between two large mountains in the Bronze Mountains, with three large public halls (being the Entrance Hall, the Forges Hall and the Eastern Hall/Main Hall) and a private, royal hall for the previous kings. The entrance to the city is the head of a giant dragon carved in stone with the battlements located on the tip of it's head.

## Trivia

* The idea of having the gate be the head of a dragon was one of the author's good friends ideas.
