The Starbreaker Clan

[Arbrek the Ancient 140]

*Lore*

Ancient History:

Long ago, when the world was young, there was a Dwarf. This Dwarf was one of the first sons of Urguan, Father of the dwarves, and went by the name Gotrek Starbreaker. He was well known as the finest smith in the land, not to mention a peerless warrior. One day Gotrek decided he wished to settle down and start his own clan. He searched for many years to find the right wife to bear his child, and for many more to find where he would build his home. Finally, one day, he came across a beautiful mountain valley, with a massive plateau in the center. There he built his citadel, digging deep into the ground and far into the sky, and there he founded a legacy. Other then this, very little is known of the great Starbreaker himself, it is said that he could form even the toughest and most durable metals into a soft malleable form, and that he could purify even the most impure of materials with the slightest touch. In battle, he was purported to "roar with such fury, that the mountains themselves would shake" and there were rumors of Gotrek being able to spit great waves of fire at the enemy. Much of this is thought to be pure myth, but the Starbreakers regard it as gospel.

Recent History:

((This is mostly about my character, but it clearly explains what happened to the clan, and what's happening now.))

Unlike many of Auslon's denizens Arbrek Starbreaker led a relativity peaceful life until quite recently, and even then it was not by the hands of Orcs. Arbrek was born into the ancient and powerful Starbreaker Clan, descended from the great Warrior-Smith, Gotrek Starbreaker, himself. By the time Arbrek was born, part of the Starbreaker Clan had broken away, and formed the Silverfingers Clan led by Arbrek's uncle, Haggar Silverfinger, while the Starbreakers were still led by Arbrek's father, Gotrek Starbreaker, in the citadel of Karak-Rikkaz. One day, soon after Arbrek was born, Haggar also wished for a son. Having no luck with traditional measures he adopted a young Forest Dwarf named Hashut. Many year later after Arbrek had started to be tutored in the Dwarven arts of Mining, Building, Smithing, and Warfare, and while he showed great promise in all, he was masterfully skilled at smithing. It is said that all Arbrek had to do was glance at the object he was forging and it would take no more then the slightest touch to form it.

The First Purge of the Starbreakers

Soon later, Karak-Rikkaz was assaulted by a large force of Undead, lead by a mysterious figure cloaked in black with a blood red trim, who laid siege to the citadel, for a reason still unknown. Well into the siege the unthinkable happened. Hashut turned upon his kinsdwarfs and opened the Great Gate, for he had long been listening to a second figure with a dark sky blue trim's devious whispers. Arbrek seeing his kin's treachery leapt into battle with Hashut who was attempting to slay Skalf and Haggar. Too Arbrek's eternal regret, he was too late. Even as he drove his pick through Hashut's skull, his father and uncle were struck down. Arbrek fought like a manic but he too was struck down, this time by one of the cloaked figures. What the thing was not counting on was Arbrek's determination and resolve, for Arbrek, however, was not killed but put unconscious. When he awoke he discovered that almost all of his clan and his uncle's were killed, and Karak-Rikkaz was burned to the ground, and it's underground caverns destroyed. Upon seeing the devastation wrought on his home and clan, he swore an oath of vengeance to kill the mysterious figure and rebuild his clan before taking up his his ancestor's war-axe and name and set out into the vast world of Aegis. Many year later, Arbrek has reached the venerable age of 1,570 and long since reestablished the Clan! Numbering in 10 Clansmen, ((Including dead/missing clansmen, the Starwardens, and Arbrek)) and a quaint hall in Kal'Karik, the Starbreakers have risen to become a force to be reckoned with.

Character Bio (Must be at least 5+ sentences): Klaggen grew up in Karik raised by his Great Uncle Arbrek while most of the other Starbreaks had gone missing. Arbrek was old and could not watch over Klaggen very much, this allowed Klaggen to have the freedom and wonder the city aimlessly. Over his life this put him in bad situations usually forcing him to fight his way through many monsters. His fighting was strong but average in comprison to his fellow dwarves. His best talent was his smithing that was learned from his Great Uncle.
