After countless centuries of enslavement by the giants of the north, the dwarves overthrew their masters and became the new rulers of the Mithril Mountains—that is until a terrible earthquake known as the Shattering collapsed their great halls and forced them south into the Evenfall where they have struggled ever since to rebuild. Today, these glacial peaks are scattered with half-witted hill giants, a lesser breed of their ancient kin, wild elves and primitive tribes of dwarves. Dwarven legend tells of a great beast that dwells beneath the mountains that caused the Shattering after being awoken from its age-long slumber.

Dragon's Perch
High atop the Mithril Mountains rests a place of sanctuary, worship and knowledge for any who seek protection or justice. A group of paladins, known as the Order of the Silver Covenant, operate from within the temple, preparing brave crusaders from every race to battle the forces of tyranny, greed and destruction. Little is known of this place to those outside of the order, perhaps, because on most days, all that can be seen of the sacred mountain are the cathedral towers floating atop the clouds.
