Karm Lema

The dwarves keep mostly to themselves in their cities and villages around Gatakenak. Working in this region can be difficult, but it is not impossible. There are other races in the main trading areas bringing goods to and from this area, which is a good cover for operations here.

Agents
There are two types of agents of Karm Lema who venture into the world outside their hills. The first is the trader who is seeking resources for the city. These are generally men. The second type is the priests, all women, who seek demons and those they influence. They work to banish this evil before it has time to organize against them.

Capabilities
Dwarves are known to be hardy. The men are trained to be quick-witted and adaptable. The women are more focused on formal training: martial, academic, or often both. They do not maintain much of a network of contacts, but are generally coming into other lands with a purpose in mind. Once that purpose is done, they return.

Agenda
The support and protection of Karm Lema is the first priority of the dwarven nation. Resources that cannot be obtained in their mines or hills are needed to build their grand monuments and feed their population. However, they take the threat of demonic infiltration very seriously. It’s not theoretical or theological for them, as many of their ancestors died in the previous demon invasion. For dwarves there is no dealing with demons, only their death or banishment.
