Goldhand Trading Company
Background
Back in the days where dwarves walked the lands of Aegis, the Goldhand Clan rose to its height in wealth. Starting the Alrasian Merchants, a group dedicated to selling their goods at reasonable prices to everyone they could. The business was highly successful and shops were started in other places such Al’Khazar and Kal’Urguan. This marked the rise of the true power of the Goldhands. They were wealthy and flourishing in Aegis.
With the more recent exodus to Asulon, the Goldhands struggled to find a home at first and finally received Kal’Alras as their rightful hold. Gulroid and Rasun, the two highest ranking Goldhands, renovated the entire city and produced a beautiful hold to dwell in. With the recent success of the Goldhands in Kal’Alras, they have decided to reopen a merchant company like their ancestors. This new company would help the Goldhands reach their former prowess that they held in Aegis.
Hierarchy
The Goldhand Trading Company is as it name implies, is run by the Goldhand clan-members. Every clan member will be allowed and asked to join the Trading Company to work and provide supplied to stock the stores with the finest wares.
