"Fleeing the destruction of their former town, Dwarves and Dark Elves united over their worship of the Blood God Armok and forged themselves a new home out of the fires of battle." |
~on Fireforge. |
Creation
After Rogueport was abandoned, the Dwarves and Dark Elves decided to flee together, bonded by their worship of Armok. According to murals within Fireforge depicting it's creation, a number of ruins were found that were then built over by the Dwarves. Shortly after this, a large lava pillar miraculously appeared and descended down from the ceiling. The inhabitants took this as a sign from Armok that their work was good and so founded Fireforge.
Location
The Fortress of Fireforge could be found a short distance north-west of the city of Rogueport.
Appearance
Fireforge was a relatively small town, populated by towers and small buildings that housed a few of the researchers who lived there. The town itself was surrounded by high walls and a lava moat.
Underneath the ground, the Dwarves had created a Fortress, highly trapped and dangerous to invaders, that they had adorned with carvings and decorated with lava falls.
Leadership
Fireforge was led by a single ruler, originally appointed by a High Priest. Only one ruler is known of at this time.
