    Grofsmid family, despite not being known by many, is one of the older families of Regalia. Family's history dates back to ancient times, when a clan Grofsmid was one of many less powerful clans in Ruin-Khuur, clan of smiths, labourers and miners, never managing to reach any great influence in the hold. Sadly this quite mundane life ended with invasion of Dakkar, rapid militarazation affecting everyone in dwarven empire. The clan found themselves supplying their men into meatgrinder, slowing Dakkar progress. But despite the best efforts of the empire and Ruin-Khuuramman hold, Dakkar were not yet to be stopped, Ruin-Khuuramman was the last of dwarven holds to fall into their claws. Clan Grofsmid was forced to flee, choosing to escape for the growing Regalian empire, in fear that demise of all of dwarvendom was nigh.
    The family had settled itself in Regalia, attempting to once again establish itself in these exotic lands, indebting themselves to get enough money to open a smithy, with hope that with their skills they will repay it soon. Sadly for them, they found themselves in unwanted attention of gangs, wanting to get protection money from them. Grofsmids in their hubris refused to heed to their demands, finding that people and organisations are refusing to trade with them, members of the clan beaten up by thugs. Clan chose to respond in kind, many younger members getting arrested by guard upon witnessing their attacks on gang members. This eventually ended when gangs sent out a group of abberants and sellswords for hire to murder heads of the clan, managing to succeed. This not only left the clan without leadership, but also led to death of all experienced smiths, resulting in clan being unable to pay their debts, losing ownership of the smithy and their homes, having to move into slums.
    Clan found itself in it's lowest point, lost their homeland, wealth, leadership, surrounded by those in similar condition or by abberants. But rather than fall apart, the clan chose to stick together, aiming to make sure that clan will survive no matter what. Clan gained much more pragmatic outlook of the world, accepting day labor jobs, learning new crafts, many of it's members opting for gaining wealth trough crime or by becoming soldiers of fortune. And the clan survived two centuries, despite catastrophes hitting the city, managing to get trough with stubborness, pragmatism and cunning.

    Naming conventions:
    The family, having lived in over hundred years in Regalia, had taken quite inspiration from fellow slum dwellers. It is not uncommon for a Grofsmid to have first name of Anglians, Heartlanders or Daendroquins, more traditionalist parts of the family keeping to only using dwarven names
    Family members:

    Blue = Played, Green = Playable, Orange = Playable under special circumstances


    Wulf Eikinskjaldi Grofsmid (65) - with death of previous patriarch Wulf as the oldest direct descendant had to take over the family, taking the burden of having to keep it alive.
    Wulf's siblings, cousins of all varietys, nieces and nephews - Make whatever you will enjoy.
    Wulf's bastards - keep them 47 and younger. No half Isldar, no Feka
