Ofnir Silver-Tooth

Ofnir Silver-Tooth was a dwarf, known by many for founding the very popular among mountain dwarves "Iron-Foot Clan". The classic stories talk about him hurting his foot in a mining accident, and making a new one out of stone, then covering it in iron. That is why the Clan is called "Iron-Foot". Ofnir is believed to have lives around the time of Rathnir's creation, and he was believed to be a wealthy dwarf. After his accident, it is believed he used his immense wealth to aid other dwarves who suffered from mining accidents.

Early life
Ofnir was born a mountain dwarf. His kind was excellent at mining, and his father and mother to this day remain unknown, as    they themselves date back to the world of Jagdas. Ofnir as a child was drawn to forges, and ores in general. It was obvious to other dwarves that instead of becoming an adventurer or a ruler, he would become one of the more common: Miners/Toolsmiths. Ofnir was born in the valleys of what is now known as Karak-Drong, or what has been re-established by Orm Hrolfson, Barakor. One day, as Ofnir explored the outer reaches of the kingdom, he stumbled upon a forgotten chamber filled with precious gems and untouched veins of ore. The discovery ignited a spark within him, and he vowed to one day use his talents to benefit the entire dwarfdom. The tunnels and chambers of his home were rife with tales of ancient feuds and past battles. Growing up amidst the shadowy narratives of dwarven history, Ofnir developed a keen sense of duty toward his kin. His parents, recognizing his potential, nurtured his skills and instilled in him the values of resilience and unity. As he grew up, he gained a huge passion for mining. This would later reflect his entire life.

Mining's mistakes
Many ask themselves, what would have happened if Ofnir didnt become a miner, but instead a toolsmith? Lots would happen. The most widely spread mountain clan wouldn't come into existence. The Ironfoot clan. As Ofnir mined in the areas now known as Leukodronos, pretty close to where he grew up, he stumbled upon a large vein of gold and emeralds. He immediately started digging it up. That would be a mistake. The cave was infested with stalactite's, and once the vein was out, he caused so much distruption in the cave's supportive layer, that a whole rockfall started. No rocks injured him, but a chunky piece of stalactite pierced through his foot, and he screamed out in pain. After taking it out carefully, he knew there was no use fixing up his leg, as back then dwarves didn't possess medical knowledge. He decided to make a new foot, out of stone. Being good at making tools, he decided to make a mould out of his cut off foot, and later put it into burning molten lava. It fit him perfectly. But stone was weak, and would crumble. He decided to plate it with Iron, and not only was it tougher, but it looked better. As a rich dawi, Ofnir Silver-Tooth decided to help other dwarves facing his problems by using his immense wealth to craft several limbs for dwarves missing them. Anyone from then on who suffered in a mining incident, was re assure that they would gain a new limb from Ofnir.

Death
Ofnir was getting older by the day, and couldn't keep up. He had a wife, who is yet unknown to this day, but there have been records of him having a son, named Dain II Ironfoot. Dain was born on a cold day in winter, in the area where Ofnir had apparently met his wife. It is believed that with records the area was where the Kingdom Of Axum used to be. Raised in the mountains, Dain lived pretty much like Ofnir, however he wanted to explore the world. Ofnir was around 204 years old when he fell ill from a fever, and died. His wife apparently fell ill shortly after, leaving Dain by himself. No one knows where Ofnir lays, but what we know is that he picked a remote desert to be his death place. Archeologists believe over time, sand piled on top of his body during sand-storms, and he could really be anywhere amongst the endless hills of sand.
