Khaz Dugoth

Khaz Dugoth is the largest Dwarven fortress still in Dwarven hands anywhere on the continent of Tel Morath, and lies deep in the center of the Greyhammer Peaks. The main entrance is reached via a narrow track, which winds up the mountain for over two miles before ending at the imposing stone doors engraved with Dwarven runes of armoring.
Khaz Dugoth is located in the western reaches of Tel Morath. It is built into the north-western extremes of the highest mountains of the Grayhammer Peaks, and it was designed as a powerful keep to protect the mountains from a western or northern encroachment . The Forgemaster and his ancestors have expended much effort to make his warriors the best in the Dwarven lands through rigorous training and only the best training grounds. A one-mile square area just outside the gates of Khaz Dugoth is reserved for warrior training. Khaz Dugoth is constructed in the traditional Dwarven kingdom manner. It exhibits all the typical levels and design, but has added fortification from spires at its edges.These spires serve as keeps, when necessary, and as a menacing landmark when times are peaceful. Lately it has been used as a guard outpost for monitoring bestial activity as Khaz Dugath soldiers have come under attack during recent patrols.
