Family History(Abridged)[]
Long ago, back during the God Wars, there lived a Dwarven hero known as Lord Storn Oathblade, "Wielder of Oaths", having recieved his name from swearing fealty to all dwarves in an attempt to bring them together. As the God Wars continued to rage on, he as well as many of the Dwarven leaders believed that the war would destroy their civilization if they fought in the great war of gods, so they led the dwarves underground, where they created a grand city; Keldagrim. Ever since then, the Oathblades have been known as great warriors throughout the world, Dwarven or otherwise.
Since then, all of Storn Oathblade's decendants were great heroes and adventurers. There were heroes like Gannon Oathblade the Grand, Vargr Oathblade the Blood-Ridden, and so on until one adventurer changed the legacy of the Oathblades forever; Jon Oathblade the Restless. This Dwarf, who lived somewhere during the Mid-Fourth Age, took some fellow adventurers on a mission to steal a dragon's horde of gold. However, all of these adventurers, including Jon, were killed, which caused the Oathblades to turn away from lives of adventure and heroism to become miners, blacksmiths and merchants. However, one Oathblade inherited his ancestors' thirst for adventure; Eorlund Oathblade, who lives in the current Era. Eorlund decided that if the line were to continue, the Oathblades would not only become adventurers again, but anything that a Dwarf would possibly desire to do.
