History
Runic Blacksmiths create spells with their hammers, linking the Winds of Magic to runes of power. They are extremely distrustful and jealously guard the secrets kept in their anvils and hammers, guarding the knowledge that allows them to make magical items: weapons, armor, rings and talismans of greater power than the items forged by other mortal races of the world.
The Dwarves have always despised the use of magic, and have never practiced such wild magic. In ancient times, the ancestors realized the dangers of dealing with the forces of magic in its purest form and learned to conjugate it with the elements. They created powerful runes with which they could capture magic and did not let it float freely around, for that would only cause some misfortune. Today, only the Runelords, the most venerable of their profession, who have more than five hundred years on their backs, can attempt to build powerful runes. But there was a time when even apprentices forged all kinds of runes, so once upon a time there was a plethora of runic items; not like now, which are considered something very strange and special but highly sought after for battles.
