Master of Trade for the Unity Forge

Oreamnos Thunderforge
Priest of Abbathor, Dwarven God of Trade

Oreamnos Thunderforge's story began in the subterranean halls of the dwarven city of Dunakrond, nestled deep within the craggy heart of the mountain range. Born into the respected Thunderforge clan, Oreamnos showed an early affinity for exploration and an insatiable curiosity about the world beyond the stone walls of his home.

From a young age, Oreamnos felt a calling not only to the traditional dwarven pursuits of mining and craftsmanship but also to the uncharted realms waiting beyond the subterranean tunnels. His insistent questions about the surface world, its cultures, and the potential for trade opportunities didn't always align with the more conservative views of his kin.

The turning point came when Oreamnos experienced a vivid vision during a pilgrimage to the dwarven temple dedicated to the god of trade. In this divine encounter, the god imparted a sense of purpose, urging Oreamnos to bridge the gap between the dwarven halls and the diverse lands beyond. Thus, Oreamnos embraced the challenging path of the Exploration Ministry, a group dedicated to establishing trade routes and connections with the surface.

Leaving behind the comfort of Dunakrond, Oreamnos ventured into the unknown, equipped with his innate dwarven resilience and an unyielding determination. His initial travels brought him to human settlements, elven forests, and even the nomadic camps of halflings, where he soaked in the diverse cultures and trading practices.

Over decades, Oreamnos became a seasoned explorer, earning a reputation as a knowledgeable and reliable merchant. His trade missions not only brought prosperity to his clan but also forged bonds between Dunakrond and the surface realms. Oreamnos's skills as an outdoorsman and a merchant became legendary, and his lecturing tone, though sometimes grating, was tolerated for the wealth of information he provided.

While Oreamnos Thunderforge's ventures proved successful, they were not without challenges. He faced treacherous terrains, navigated political intrigues, and weathered the occasional hostility from those skeptical of the dwarf seeking to establish trade. Through it all, Oreamnos remained resolute, driven by his divine calling and the belief that trade could bring people together, dispelling prejudices and enriching both sides.

His extensive travels also led him to uncover relics and artifacts, some of which he would requisition for the church, reinforcing his commitment to the god of trade. The coin earned from successful trades further funded his expeditions and contributed to the prosperity of Dunakrond. His life took a bit of a turn when he met Elvindir Ironforge. Elvindir had set up his business in the Elven City of Teradryn and was seeking a partner who could handle the sales and trade aspects of the business. His adopted Daughter Angbera was capable but young and lacked experiance with the many races of the world. Oreamnos agreed to the position and went with Elvindir to the Elven Kingdom. When he met Angbera he know he had made the right desision for it was love at first sight.
