The one story that is told to every Dwarf child is the story of Thror Stoneblood. There are many fabled tales of Thror Stoneblood but he is best known for saving the Dwarven race from extinction. It is said that after the city of Thune collapsed into the underdark Thror led a band of heroes deep into the earth to save them. He and his companions fended off thousands of drow and even killed a legendary purple worm. Without his noble and selfless journey one of the most prominent races of the world would not exist.
There is also the fabled story of him killing one hundred orcs single handedly in the very camp of Orc God himself.
