Moria

A mighty city of Dwarven heritage, the ancestors of Moria were brought into a pact with Navaros, God of Fate and Prophecy. Myths tell of a lone Dwarf who turned to Navaros in desperation, begging for a prophecy that foretold of his people's salvation. No one knows the nature of the pact nor of the prophecy itself, but the city still stands to this day. When Navaros was shattered, the pact seems to have ended and its denizens are free to lead new lives. The city has since focused inwards, choosing to take care of its own citizens as opposed to projecting force outwards onto the surrounding hills of Malice. As a result, the surroundings lands are wild and dangerous.
The city is surrounded by a few hectacres of arable land which are tended by families with long ancestral ties to the land. As trade has recently resumed between Moria and other cities, the influx of food has caused a boom in population. In return, the city exports jewels, precious metals, and Isocrystals mined from the Teeth of Malice.
Morians tend to be of dual Dwarven and Tiefling ancestry; short and hardy, with thick and powerful tails, whose skin resembles the jewels and metals they harvest from the nearby mountains.
