The Lord of War

The legend of the creation of the dwarves comes from Ethendel himself. Ethendel was in need of great blacksmiths to forge his weapons for his legendary battles, so he created a creature that was to be the most skilled blacksmith in all of the land. These creatures were called the dwarves, they are stout, short and have a mighty temper. The greatest blacksmiths among them were said to be the very ones who forged diamond plate from the blaze of the rift-fire.
