Treaty 1349 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Grand Kingdom of Urguan Urguan Discord: [Click Here] About The Grand Kingdom The Grand Kingdom of Urguan is a constitutional monarchy established to unify and represent the Dwarven race. The Grand Kingdom itself is one with tremendous history, being the sole nation of the Dwarves for millenia, leading back to the very first dwarf himself, Urguan. Represented through the colors of orange and gray, the nation has united the Dwarves under its banner through common religion, culture, and ideals. The religion of the land, the Brathmordakin, is a polytheistic religion composed of 7 gods, each of which represent a different aspect of Dwarven culture. Throughout history, Urguan has been best known for their expert craftsmanship, unique clan diversity, beautiful underground cities, engineering capabilities, and wartime strategy. Now on the realm of Almaris, the Grand Kingdom continues to serve as the sole Dwarven hub, occupying a sprawling mountainside on the south east section of the realm. Settlements of Urguan The Capital City of Kal’Darakaan Kal’Darakaan, or the City of the Ancient Might is a subterranean dwarven metropolis that serves as the capital of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan. Being the largest and only Dwarven hub on Almaris, the city is a staple for dwarven culture, craftsmanship, and religion. Within the capital city, travellers can expect to find multiple clan halls, housing districts, a bustling market, a Brathmordakin temple, grand arena, and large area for craftsmen to hone their skills. Unknown to many is the city's origins, as the modern Dwarves of Urguan were not the ones to construct the city. Through the investigation of clues left behind, many believe the city to have been a colony of the ancient Dwarves, hence its name of ‘Ancient Might’. The Forest Dwarf Village of Hefrumm The Forest Dwarf Village of Hefrumm is a town settled in the woodland valley surrounding the capital city of Kal’Darakaan. Home primarily to the Forest Dwarf Clans, Hefrumm’s unique culture is one linked to the care of sustaining nature surrounding them. Living amongst the flora and fauna specific to the region, strolling through the village is a beautiful nature walk for all to take on. The smell of roasting boar and spilled carrot ale often radiates from the Hefrumm Tavern and Inn. Some of their practices are seen no where else throughout the realm, such as the Seers, a branch of the Brathmordakin faith with an emphasis on spiritual guidance.
