Spineforged

Spineforged are those who live in the Dwarven settlements (or Holds and Bastions) of the Earthspine Mountains. The term comes from the old belief that Moradin forged Dwarves from the stone of Eltharas itself. Thus, those who make the Earthspine their home envisage themselves descended from the stone of the Earthspine mountains itself. The term is also used for anyone who has lived among the Dwarves there for an extended periond and is an accepted part of society. Dwarves, however, usually inflect the term slightly differently in this case.
