Brotherhood of Iron

Brotherhood of Iron
The Brotherhood of Iron was first founded by High King Doroten in 1E 0 and used as his puppets to mine rare ore in and around the Mountains of Madness. After his death, the Brotherhood of Iron swore to serve the dwarven people and has since then been ruled by an elected councilor from the High King's council.

The rulership of the Brotherhood of Iron is a special one in dwarven society. The ruler or "Mine-Boss" as he is called, is first elected by the High King when he ascends to the throne. The High King has his council vote among themselves and, together with the High King's personal opinion, the Mine-Boss is decided. Usually a new Mine-Boss is elected every 10th year or when the High King dies and a new one ascends. However there have been cases when a Mine-Boss held his post throughout the reign of the High King.
