Modinites

The Modinites are a militaristic religious organization dedicated to the following and worship of Aermodin. While consisting largely of dwarves, they do not turn away any race who would pledge loyalty to their god, so it is not uncommon to see humans among their ranks.

History
The Modinites were formed shortly after the dismemberment of the Axe Kingdom. The former Axe Kingdom members were exiled from their homelands and traveled to the far side of Andermane, settling just south of Breg-Meg. The Modinites were led by a council of elder dwarves who led them to build a great fortress into the Bleak Mountains where they might be able to better protect their people. And thus, Grand Modin was born.

Grand Modin
Grand Modin was built by the Modinites as a place of refuge and worship for Aermodin. It is overseen by the Seat of Elders. Because of the openness of their doors, Grand Modin has become a commercial center, affording the Modinites to control the entire region they have called Stonebreak.

Seat of Elders
The Seat of Elders is a council of *insert arbitrary number* of the most powerful, influential, and wisest paladins of the Modinites.
