| + | Clans Toldorath and Tordannon | ||
| + | Capital: Frosthaven | ||
| + | Primary Resources: Copper, medicinal supplies, livestock | ||
| + | Enemies: Droranath, Narathun | ||
| + | Celebrated Virtues: Empathy, generosity, loyalty. Always willing to help a friend in need, and always willing to make a new friend. | ||
| + | Like Lanarak and Londurak, the mythic founders of Clans Toldorath and Tordannon were siblings. Unlike their fellow exiles, Toldorath and Tordannon never quarreled. They followed the same path, shared the same labors, and even built their holds adjacent to one another; the city of Frosthaven lies directly between the two holds and serves as the capital for both. | ||
| + | Toldorath and Tordannon had many skills, though they were masters of few. They were hunters and herders, warriors and miners. But above all, they were the most gifted healers of the exiles, ready to help anyone in need. Before Bal Dolur, Frosthaven healers were found across the holds. This changed with the arrival of House Brunet. Today the finest healers in the Morin Holds are halflings, but dwarves still serve in the healing houses. More importantly, | ||
| + | At a glance, Toldorath and Tordannon have much in common. They mine copper and herd mountain tribex and other beasts on the fields surrounding Mirror Lake. They’re stoic warriors when they must fight, but they never start a quarrel unless driven to it. In other ways, they are quite different. Tordannon dwarves are devoted to the Sovereign Host, while the Toldorath are ambivalent about religion. Tordannon suffered grievous losses in the War Below; they shun symbionts, have sealed off their deep passages, and live in fear of the next assault. In contrast, the Toldorath are intrigued by symbionts and keen to delve deeper into Sol Udar. Despite these differences, | ||
| + | But there is one thing that makes these two Frosthaven clans stand out: their support for the Jhorash’tar orcs. A story says an orc shaman taught the healing arts to Toldorath and Tordannon in the first days of the Exile. This could be pure fantasy—the modern Jhorash’tar aren’t particularly adept healers—but regardless, these two clans have always sought peace between orc and dwarf. This has brought them into bitter conflict with Clan Droranath. There have also been times when the Frosthaven clans have themselves suffered at the hands of the orcs, when a tribe has struck a Tordannon spire in retaliation for perceived treachery. But the clan lords remain committed to building a bridge between the two peoples. Over the last century, they have promoted the concept of giving the orcs a seat on the Iron Council. Toldorath has employed Jhorash’tar mercenaries to help secure its colony in the Royaume d'En Dessous, and is seeking to expand this force to drive a new offensive. | ||
| + | Toldorath and Tordannon have no specialty that calls out a specific style of adventurer, but this just means that any character could come from Frosthaven. They have soldiers and fighters, hunters and rangers. What drives these clans is loyalty and kindness, their belief that it’s always better to make a new friend than to dismiss someone as an enemy. | ||
