History
Called such because of the large amount of iron deposits found there, is home to the growing nation of dwarves. Mostly rocky with very little in the way of forest most of the races found it too unlikable to move there. However the dwarves being as they are took an instant liking to it. A small town can be found on the island which would confuse anyone dropping by, because the size seems too small for the large number of dwarves. Anyone taking the time to find out would discover the town is there to serve as a trading post only. The main city of the dwarves is located below the surface.
Primary Settlements
The primary, Dwarven City, named Iron Forge, is now home to about 350 dwarves, the bulk of the population. Within these walls you'll find many forges and the sound of hammers echos nonstop. Some of the finest steel items in the isles come from this large city.
A trading outpost, the Ugly Elf, is nestled at the northern foot of Mt. Delest. It is controlled and protected by Iron Forge, and the majority of the individuals found there do not actually live above ground, but below it.
On the higher slopes of Mt. Delest, clan of Orcs reside. They loom over the Dwarven outpost and entrance to the tunnels with a deep loathing. The Dwarves and Orcs will often engage in skirmishes, but are never able to gain a significant advantage over the other.
A school of Gnoll Monks, the Hammering Fist Dojo, is located somewhere up on Mt. Delest's northern slopes. They are extremely violent, and very territorial should anyone trespass on their domain.
Leadership
Currently under the leadership of King Stonebeard the dwarves are a growing and well adjusted people. Their gates are open to all who seek to learn the crafts.
