Dourhand-slayer

Old dwarf-ruins litter the landscape of Forochel. Being the hardiest of the Free Peoples, the dwarves claim that they were the first to settle here long ago, in hopes of finding riches beneath the frozen earth -- but most of these settlements were abandoned long ago.

Hoping to strengthen their claims as legitimate heirs of the ancient Dwarf-lords, the Dourhands seek to re-build these settlements with the aid of their Angmarim allies, but this has brought their cousins the Longbeards north as well, seeking to dispute their claims, no matter the worth (or lack thereof) of the mines here.
