Thorik Braveaxe, son of Thrain was disgusted by the status of the Kingdom and couped Gotrek from power, taking up the mantle of King himself with support from both the Braveaxes and the Blackaxes. At this time the King was Gotrek Firemane, known to frequently travel and be absent of his people. Bazian, tired of the grudges between their kin brought the Blackaxes back to Kal’Urguan to live with the rest of their kin. Many years had passed, eventually Decks passed away and his son Bazian Blackaxe became the leader of his clan. With the clan split in two, Thrain Grandaxe and his brothers Rhakun and Gilneas named themselves the “Braveaxe Clan” to show their loyalty to the Kingdom while Decks and his followers became the “Blackaxe Clan” a name meant to bring disgrace but was accepted by them. Decks now disgraced took his brothers Gulik and Grady and their children and moved into Kal’Domhain, one of the old Grandaxe holds. The Clan Father, Thrain Grandaxe wanted the clan to support the Kingdom in its war effort however his brother Decks Grandaxe opposed the war and was banished from the Kingdom. Thus the Kingdom of Urguan was restored and the Grandaxes stood by it.Ī tragedy would soon befall the clan however, as the new King Grimlie declares war on the human Kingdom of Oren, the clan descends into disagreement. When Simppa marched on the Ironborn, the Grandaxes followed suit alongside the Frostbeards and Ironguts and vanquished the Ironborn. The clan participated in the politics of Khaz’Urguan from a distance, and when Velkan Ironborn rose to power and formed the Empire of Khorvad, the Grandaxes joined in Simppa’s rebellion against the Ironborn rule. The Grandaxe clan was founded by one of the sons of Urguan, Bogrin Grandaxe who gathered his family and his followers to the northern ranges of Aegis. In addition, Grandaxes tend to make up the backbone of the dwarven workforce, with many serving in taverns, working in the legion, or promoting trade in the city. While they still retain many militaristic aspects in their culture, their skills have diversified to include helping others around the community. Modern day Grandaxes focus on fighting for their family and clan. Overall the Grandaxe clan are proud and honorable dwarfs who live as both warriors and politicians. Their speed and force may send even the most mighty of Ologs onto their backs. When the dwarfs need a reliable fighting force, look no further than the Grandaxes. Notable figures include Fimlin Grandaxe, Valen Grandaxe, Thorin Grandaxe and Thorik Grandaxe, who are all dwarves who have contributed much to reforming the Dwarven Nation and building up its strength. Notable dwarven kings and figures of dwarven history can easily be traced back to the Grandaxe line one way or another.
