The Grimm Fortress Building / Landmark in The Lost Lands | World Anvil

The Grimm Fortress

This massive stone fortress is a sign of dwarven ingenuity and skill as well as a symbol of the power of the Iron Kingdom of Dorriden. The fortress itself is constructed along a long mountain ridge and gives a long view over Genev Gap to the south and oversees the rich farmlands of the Barony of Baile. Nearby farmers are expected to flee to the safety of its walls in the event of any sort of attack, so the fortress itself has far more housing than its troops actually require. The militia here is made up entirely of dwarven and human warriors, with humans making up less than a tenth of the contingent.   The thick, imposing walls stretch along the mountain walls for hundreds of yards and are punctuated with tall towers armed with powerful ballistae and other weapons capable of taking down dragons, giants, or foreign armies. General Kord Axebreaker and his staff keep the troops on high alert with constant training drills that under many circumstances could lead to complaints and grumbling, but the general’s charisma and friendly nature to all of his troops keeps them dedicated to their jobs.
