The First Tenebrous OverseerOnce the Obsidian Herald had lead the vanguard and given us a foothold in the Dwarovar, the Obsidian Council united and sent a leader directly from their midst to rule and administer the new helm and represent Obsidian Empire beyond the Primeval Serpentdepths. The Herald would lead new campaigns set by the council, while the new Tenebrous Overseer managed the realm and enacted the will of the Runefather, enforcing loyalty in the new frontier.\n\n"No weakness is tolerated and no mercy is permitted, revenge must be imposed onto those that defied our Runefather. For we must embrace death without regret as we embrace life without fear. For success is commemorated and failure is merely remembered."
+15 Maximum Absolutism
Die for the Runefather, Rather Than Live for YourselfIt is with these words that the unique character of our people was forged. The Runefather ever taught the value of selfless sacrifice and the impermissibility of failure. In the years since he passed his teachings to his followers, it had translated into an undying loyalty to his teachings and to his successors on the Obsidian Council. Absolute loyalty and obedience separates us from the lesser races and their self-serving ways.

Claiming our BirthrightTo protect us from the dwarves following their weak High King, our venerable Runefather gathered the entire population of Gor Dûrgheled and prepared the largest runic circle possible, for one final spell. With it, he teleported our forefathers deep into the Primeval Serpentdepths and promised them that their birthright which had been seized from them would one day be reclaimed. From this promise sprung the animating basis of Obsidian Dwarf society.\n\nWith the beginning of the Reclamation we have found Aul-Dwarov to be radically different from what was described in the annals of our ancestors; foul beasts squat in long-abandoned holds and the once great realm lies in ruins. We shall retake what is ours from all who would oppose us and then restore the majesty of this realm in the name of the Runefather.
+5% Administrative Efficiency
Cast Out The MutantThe Orcs and Goblins have been roaming the ruins of the Dwarovar for millennia and leave a stain upon our destined land. They taint the holds of old built by our kind and leave ruin and decay behind them, the Runefather does not care for such beings to be subjugated but rather destroyed and repelled from the caves completely.\n\nWe must be the sole sovereigns of the Dwarovar with no other external entities encroaching on our domain, their devastation of Aul-Dwarov was a matter of luck and will not be repeated in resisting our expansion.

-5 Years of Separatism
Industries of the DeepThe Runefather decreed that the manufactories of the Primeval Serpentdepths would surpass anything present in our old home of Gor Dûrgheled and beyond it. Grand forges channelling great magma rivers led to mass production of all forms of metal, thousands of Runesmiths empowering our structures and arms while great quarries mined all kinds of stone for myriad constructions.\n\nSpanning across multiple levels and heavily managed for the most efficient manufacturing and ensuring no downtime, punishing anyone who would dare to slack in the name of the Runefather. From this our industrial basis sprung the surplus of wealth and materials that we have used to maintain a strong foothold in the holds of the Dwarovar.
+15% Goods Produced Modifier
Imposing PerfectionAs we have seen in the ruins of old, the holds barely could withstand a horde of monsters which barely compare to the strength of the horrors in the Primeval Serpentdepths. The finest of our architects and engineers have arrived in the Dwarovar and found many flaws in design that were corrected in the Obsidian Empire millennia ago.\n\nThrough runic enchantments, higher quality stone and the strongest of thralls we shall remove the imperfections of old and create our own lasting legacy in the Dwarovar to overshadow the dwarves who despised us so much.

The Runefather's WillThe Runefather built our Obsidian Empire in the Primeval Serpentsdepths from just a small foothold in an unknown world to the sprawling cities in every crevice of the caves. With his power he surpassed death and pioneered our small, scared people out of hiding and into the fold, to restore our right to exist in the Dwarovar and to subjugate it under his fist.\n\nThe runes he has created still empower the many ancient temples built to honour his sacrifice to us, especially in the Obsidian Hall which he resides in, where his authority and control emanates the most.
