Anghor

Anghor
Once called simply "the Dwarven fortress", Anghor was renamed in honor of the half-Dwarf who uncovered it Anghoroth. The upper half of the fortress is a giant peak roofed building. It is made of enourmous blocks of stone and stands over 60 feet high at the peak. It is just across a meandering river, and stands at the foot of a 150' foot cliff that is part of the mountains. It has been fully renevated since it's original discovery. The great hall now functions as a dining hall and gather place. There are still bathrooms and bathhouses on the main floor, but the weapon rooms have been converted to shops.

There was once an alter in the great hall which required a drop of Dwarven blood to open. This magical altar has been removed, and a stairway put in. While not as secure, this makes the lower levels a lot more accessable. The entire lower has been renovated and more has been excavated. Thanks to the river, and aqueduct system has been put in to deliver water to the various homes in the underside. Some Dwarves have discovered that they like living underground and spend most of their time there. Anghor is mostly populated by Dwarves and Half-Dwarves, though all are welcome. One Elven Ranger has set up a small log cabin just outside of the fortress. He eats with the Dwarves and spends most of his time with them, but lives outside and hunts the forests.
