The Silvervein Clan

“Hear the Call of Dungrimm’s Hall”

 

| History |

The original name of the Silvervein Clan was the Stonemace, a Clan founded by Throri 'Warmheart' Frostbeard, latter on known as Throri “betrayer” Stonemace.The clan was created soon after the Frostbeards declared full Independence from the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, by creating their own kingdom; The Kingdom of Kaz'Ulrah. Throri took his clan and pledged their loyalty to the Grand Kingdom of Urguan. This action angered his son Edel "Honourable" Frostbeard (later known as Edel Silvervein), who challenged his father to a duel to the death. Edel won the duel, but out of pity spared his father life. He would soon realize his mistake as his honorless father drove the Stonemace clan to near extinction, and tarnished their name with all his dishonorable actions.The young Edel tried to challenge his father once more to make right for his mistake, but was refused. Unable to liberate the clan by the skill of combat Edel "Honourable" Silvervein demanded a vote be held to determine a new Clan father. Edel thanks to the support of Kerwy II won by a landslide, making Edel the new Clan Father of the Stonemace clan. Edel "Honourable" Stonemace would then rename the clan “Silvervein” as their honor was pure as the silver veins in the mountains. As for his father he would then be banished and regarded as a symbol of Dishonor to the Clan for generations to come. Now exiled Throri 'The Betrayer' Stonemace would start a failed attempt against his son to regain what he claimed to be his clan. Despite Throri “The Betrayer” being a minor nuisance during a couple years, the Silvervein Clan soon got used to it and ended their hunt for the honorless dwarf. To their eyes Throri had fallen so low that even death would of been too good for him. When that concluded the Silverveins pledged their loyalty to the kingdom of Kaz’Ulrah aswell as their king; Verthaik II Frostbeard.

 

in their hunt for Throri the betrayer the Silvervein clan got attacked by Frerir and the Urguan Legions, this dishonorable ambush lead to a meeting between the two dwarven kingdoms, it was decided upon a duel be held between Edel Silvervein and Frerir Irongrinder to determine who the Brathmordakin favored, Edel Silvervein won the duel but the dishonourable Urguan king refused to settle the agreement, breaking his oath and creating a grudge. This lead to the start of the War between Kaz'ulrah and Urguan.

| Trials |

 

Frostborn

 

Any Dwarf outside of a recognized Silvervein Bloodline has to become Frostborn before beginning their Silvervein trails. You may also become Frostborn to prove your strength or to repent from past sins. To become a Frostborn the trial requires you to survive up in the mountains against cold, wolfs and starvation. Once you return you have proven your strength and you will be named Frostborn.

 

Silvervein Trails

 

First Silvervein Trail is to acquire a Weapon, this is to prove your ability to arm yourself, the clan father or elder will inspect the weapons you bring and judge you accordingly, your choice will be written down in the book of Trails.

 

The second Trial is to survive ten minutes in a fight with a Silvervein, this is to prove strength, the Beardling doesn't have to defeat the opponent. how well you fought will be written down in the book of Trails.

 

The Third and final trial is to go out and hunt an impressive beast, this can be anything from a Bear to a Drake and once you return an Elder or the Clanfather will judge you writing down your tale in the Book of Trails.

 

Once the trials are over  a ceremony will be made where you will repeat the Silvervein oath to confirm your loyalty to the Clan.

 

| Clan Oath |

As Silver runs through my Veins,

  I will aid my, brothers and sisters,

              Honour my elders and clan father,

                             and those who aren't with us anymore,

                                             I swear loyalty to my clan and my kin,

                                                           a Silvervein I am.

 

 

| The Crow |

 

The crow is the main symbol of the silvervein clan, and represents a Silvervein’s personality and ideals. In their sigil the Silvervein show two silver crow wings, to emphasize this. This symbol represents the silvervein’s will to store history as well as a representation of their honor. As Dungrimm is their prime deity the crow of the Silverveins also represents Death itself as well as the death on the old grudges that held the dwarves back. Crows also represent how well the Silverveins are able to cope with change. In some cases the Crow can represent a Silvervein’s willpower to stand for what he or she believe to be right. The symbol of the crow also influence the members of the clan to seek to see things from a higher perspective, always questioning their ideals and the reason for their actions. As the crows live in groups to survive being hunted by larger animals so do the Silverveins find it of extreme importance in Clan cooperation for the sake of the future of the clan. Lastly the crow is also a reminder to respect those that came before us, our ancestors

| Dungrimm|

 

 As the Brathmordakin of Death and the after life, Dungrimm is the most worshipped deity for their Silverveins. Dungrimm’s philosophy and symbolism echoes through all aspects of the Silvervein way of life.

| Appearance |

 

the Silverveins jet black hair, some may even have a darker shade of orange hair, but that's rather rare. They tend to have blue eyes due to their Frostbeard bloodlink. The Silvervein are mountain dwarves making them stocky and hardy because of this they are also taller than their cave dwelling counterpart. It's also not uncommon to see Silvervein with silver grey hair and grey eyes which, however, are a bit rarer.

 

 

 

| Personality |

 

Honor, family, and prudence, these are the three character traits that define a Silvervein. Despite being a young clan the members of the silverveins have shown time and time again their ability not to fall two times over the same rock. From their inner struggles with their brother clan the stonemaces, the silverveins learned prudence, and the ability to purge emotions when they are not necessary, as they have seen that the eagerness of the now almost extinct Stonemaces have caused the clan much harm. When it comes to family Silvervein loving, this same loving nature extends to their neighbors and friends. Despite this loving nature the Silverveins just like almost all dwarven clans do not hesitate to protect those they hold their even if it means giving up their life. Honor means something different for each dwarven clan, to the Silverveins it means to be selfless when it comes to your people, to keep your word, and to obey the will of the Brathmordakin.

Throri 'Warmheart' Stonemace would be dispointed with the betrayel of his clan members.

 

"Grrr"

The Silvervein Dwarves are proud and stubborn, they value honour over all else and will not see injustice go unpunished. they believe themselves to be the purest of all clans and will not hesitate to enslave others to do their work. as they believe their bloodlines are the purest they also value history and keep records on their own clan as well as others. and value intelligence as well as strength. the Silverveins are loyal to their own and those who are good for their clan and will not betray those who help them. and see it as their duty to capture all those who betray them in the Stonemace rebellion but will give them a fair chance to join. the Silverveins can be hotheaded but also very hospital.

 

Crevin Starbreaker would read this bit before uttering "If yer try enslave meh I'll send yer 'ead back to Edel."

[CHARLES THE BALD 2615]

Charles "The Bald" would pace back and forth near Edel to finally tell him the truth :

 

"You overtook this clan without the approval of the Grand King, by holding a meeting in secret and making false claims in the first place in order to advance yourself politically. You are not an honorable person, you lost it all when you came back on the decision of sparing your father.

 

The meeting you are talking about was held with dwarves that didn't pass their trials, so they weren't even of your blood. Your father wasn't even there to start with it. I saw it from my own eyes.

 

You are a disgrace and I hope everyone beside your stupid friends will recognize your claim is illegitimate. I will share my story with the senate and I hope they will banish your ass from our Kingdom."

Edel Silvervein would reply calmly
"I was not aware that hosting a Meeting with my clan was a crime? neither was it a secret as I openly invited anyone wishing to come and see what a coward my father was. I was elected new Clan father by the clan. and I still have the result to prove it. further more none of the members of the clan has gone through their trials, hence why all bearing the Stonemace name appointed by my father was allowed to vote. I did nay appoint anyone to bear the name.

spread what lies you will. the truth will remain."

"I know not of dwarves and politics, but it seems you've had your hardships and thus your actions give you movement to claim your own destiny, I pray for your people to reign true."

[Mavromino 514]

Crevin Starbreaker would make a grumbling sound waking up and walking out of some alley in Adelburg and gather his weapons with a sigh as he began walking to find someone of the clan. He was sorry for what was to happen.
