Ancestry

Koralon was born to Dormin Doomforged and an unknown High Elf in Athera. This, technically, makes her more a high elf than anything else, especially a dwarf. She identifies most with her Dwarven Heritage and aims to pursue the path of her ancestors. Through Dormin, Koralon's lineage traces numerous famous Dwarves. Her father, Dormin Doomforged, remains one of the most famous (or infamous) Doomforged to ever live, a powerful Golemancer, a renowned smith and a fierce warrior. Her grandfather, Hodir Doomforged, recovered the Grand Kingdom of Urguan from a time of strife and led them in battle until his eventual death. Her great-grandfather, Urir Ireheart, remains a Paragon of the Brathmordakin and the descedant credited for closing the Black Nexus and destroying the undead.

Koralon, through her Doomforged heritage, remains a cousin to the Ireheart clan. She is a distant cousin of Odin Ireheart and Kalviin, as well as niece-thrice-removed to Bastion Ireheart and great-niece-twice-removed to Dreek Ireheart. Her niece thrice-removed married to the Silvervein clan father and founder, Edel Silvervein. She married Frerir Irongrinder and thus accepted the Arch-Runelord Zahrer Irongrinder as her father-in-law.

Youth

As a Doomforged, she was raised in the Dwarven capital of Kal'Agnar in Athera. She did not do anything noteworthy in either Athera or Vailor. Koralon joined the mining & smithing guild upon her arrival in Axios, as well as the Grand Legion of Urguan where she served as a grunt. She worked in the Iron Honour smithing guild under her cousin, Arias Doomforged and completed the Ireheart clan trials from self-initiative around 1582.

The Dormant Years

Between the Dwarven arrival to Axios and the Coalition Wars, Koralon emerged to lead the Iron Honour smithing guild together and in cooperation with Kalviin and Mafraedon Starbreaker. The Smithing Guild sustained activity within the Dwarven city of Kal'Nikaer and became world-famous for its mastery, the three smiths producing weapons and armour for Ascended, Warhawkes and even Oren nobility. During these years, Koralon accompanied the Ascended and her Dwarven kin to the ancient Dwarven city of Kal'Urguan to witness the night the Ironborn took over, studied and traveled around Axios together with the runic behemoth Ahran, visited what is thought to be the Library of Ogradhad through a portal beneath the Dwarven deep roads and obtained the relic known as the Helm of Dungrimm from the avatar of the Brathmordakin.

Lhindir & The Kal'Varak

She met the elven mage Lhindir when he arrived to Kal'Nikaer with hopes of removing a runic spike in his chest inserted to prevent him from making any more Golems. The mage and the Dwarves sealed a bargain where the elf would teach three of them magic, in exchange to which the Dwed would relieve him of his spike and remove it. Koralon was chosen as one of the mage students, and ended up visting the Kal'Varak with both the Convocation group of mages led by Crumena and the Dwarves. With the aid of Zahrer and Torvin from within the Mind City, Koralon remained outside to physically remove the spike. Following her magical studies, Koralon and Mafraedon were both promoted to be captains of the Legion, where Koralon took up the role of a battlemage and trainer.

The Frostbeard Clan War

During the years leading up to the Coalition War, relations between the clans Frostbeard and Doomforged gradually declined as old memories of Dark Dwarf persecution emerged. Both clans saw a steady increase in their numbers to the point where either had more active Dwarves in Kal'Nikaer than the rest of the other clans combined. A Doomforged grudge declared in 1577 escalated into a full-scale Clan War, resulting in a Dark Dwarf raid on the Frostbeard clan hall and a subsequent stand-off in the main square of Kal'Nikaer. It ended with Koralon and Durin Frostbeard locked in a duel of arcane prowess, their evoked flames meeting mid-air before a ceasefire was agreed upon and a peace was made between the two.

The Coalition War

Koralon participated in most of the Coalition wars, including many raids on the Haense city of Saint Karlsburg with fellow Dark Dwarves. She met Frerir Irongrinder first in the Iron Honour smithy when he returned to Urguan, though he soon assumed the role of Grand Marshal to train and prepare the Legion for the upcoming war.
