Phog 150 Share Posted August 27, 2011 *Lore* Long ago, when the world was young, there was a small mountain-home. This place was a fortress called Karak-Dron. Karak-Dron was inhabited by a clan of dwarfs known as the Snowbeards. The Snowbeards were known as some of the greatest miners and jewelers in all of Aegis. Their halls were coated in bright gold and glittered with the bright twinkle of diamond. But they were also feared as some of the greatest warriors in all the dwarf kingdom. The great Ironbreakers were the fiercest warriors in all the Snowbeard clan. They were relentless in battle and would give their life for the safety and welfare of the people of Karak-Dron. Life in Karak-Dron was a good one, but the something unimaginable happened, it was attacked. A large group of Goblins descended from the high in the mountain. There were thousands upon thousands of them; a never ending sea of green. The gates of Karak-Dron were closed, and the crossbowman took their positions. The battle lasted for many days, with hundreds of goblins being struck down, but it was all for not. Eventually, the goblins broke through the outer gates of Karak-Dron, pouring in like water through flood-gates. The goblins charged through the grand halls of Karak-Dron, slaying all they found, and slandering the walls with blood and symbols of goblin dark magic. The Ironbreakers decided to barricade the doors of the inner keep, waiting for their inevitable death by the hands of the goblin menace. The Ironbreakers held off the goblins for as long as they could, allowing a small number of Snowbeards to escape through a small escape tunnel out of the mountains. One of those dwarfs was the young dwarf Thorin Snowbeard. As Thorin ran out of the mountain he could hear the cackle of goblins behind him and he could see the smoke rising from the mountains as the goblins sat the city ablaze, burning what the Snowbeards had worked so long to attain. As Thorin ran, he made himself a promise. He told himself that one day, he would reunite the Snowbeard clan and bring it back to its former glory, and he would reclaim Karak-Dron, for his people. The remaining Snowbeards were scattered amongst the lands of Aegis. Most of the original Snowbeards are now dead, but many of their ancestors still remain, most not even knowing of the Snowbeard blood that runs in their veins. Now Thorin is calling them all together, to take back what is theirs and restore the clan to its former glory! *The Heraldry* Our clan's heraldry is very special. Each thing represents something. The gryphon in the middle is the animal of our clan. the gryphon also represents honor. The two crossed axes is to represent our great warriors and our fallen heroes. The two crosses on each side represent freedom and courage, the two values that every Snowbeard knows to live by. the colors of blue and gold are our clans colors. *Our Clan* Our clan is run by a council of four elders. The four elders are myself, and the council members for the Ironbreakers, Miners, and the People. As soon as we have enough members, we will have election for the council members. Everyone will be voting on everything we do, but Elders will have meetings to discuss and coordinate different things. *Elders* Head Elder/ Leader: Leads the clan in all they do Ironbreaker Elder: Commands the Ironbreakers of our clan. Miner Elder: Helps to control the economy of our clan and keep our stockpiles full of supplies. Also coordinates all building, mining and merchanting operation in our clan. Elder of the People: Helps the council figure out what the people of the clan would like to see happen. His vote on everything counts for 2 *Rules* 1. Always listen to higher ranking clan members. 2.

Kobno 1 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Minecraft name:Kobno In character name:Orik Why should ye be a Snowbeard? (At least a paragraph, 6-9 sentences): Because i am a courageous dwarf, always ready to protect them who need it. Also i grew up without knowing any of my relatives except of me grandmother and she never told me who me other family was, so it is possible i am a Snowbeard. I also always 'ad something for gryphons, no idea why but I always liked them. I am a good with the sword and I occasionally mine when i need resources for me weapons. Me granny always taught me that I should help other people, even if I get 'urt trying to, so I 'ave no problem giving me life for thee good cause. Freedom is very important to me, I'd rather die than rot away in a prison. Courage also means a lot to me, and i am courageous, I'd rather die than run away from a fight, even if it is 3 vs 1. What are the two values every Snowbeard must live by: -Freedom -Courage Would ye rather be a soldier or a miner/merchant: A soldier, fighting is in me blood! Would ye be interested in a seat on the council of elders?:Aye, I think i can help with setting up the clan and leading it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
