Dwarven Engineering Corps.
History:
Housed out of religious sites in Dwarvish territory "The Corps" as they are known was founded in Mithrigal to rebuild the city after the Genasi rebellions. Their charge; utilizing laborers brought in by The Red Commission design a city that could withstand another assault by Geansai forces. The project made those who were involved unprecedentedly wealthy and granted them power that had previously been out of reach. Though the power of any particular individual did not approach an Apostle King/Queen, as a collective they wielded substantial power, financial might, and if necessary could bring any Dwarven city to a standstill. This sort of unchecked power threatened to upend to natural order as it was known, so the King's Edict was passed not allowing any member of The Corps to own land within the city. It had the desired effect of ridding the city of most of its power brokers, many Dwarves of The Corps set up in affiliated cities and made homes there. Though this had unshackled them from political and religious power, they could now charge exorbitant fees for their work back in Nin, Mithrigal, and Viggrom forcing the kings/queens to pay outrageous prices simply to keep their cities running. Today, the Corps represent some of the most skilled and wealthy members of the Dwarven race.Build it Better.
