Torngar reigns over the Mountain Dwarves from his seat at Highhold. He is a gruff old man, but skilled in the arts of statecraft and war. In his youth he spent his time with a group of dragon-slaying adventurers, but he has long since settled down. Additionally, as wielder of the Fierce Axe of Dwarvish Lords, Torngar rules and commands all dwarves.
When the Fierce Axe of Dwarvish Lords was reclaimed from the Xorians a Kingsmoot was called. Torngar invited the other Kings to the Mountain Dwarf capital of Highhold. The meeting was held there to decide which of them would wield the Fierce Axe and preside over a united dwarven people. Torngar won the Axe by promising aid for the Alliance to King Dainlin, the Generalship of the army to Deekgaon, and the reclamation of the Duergar homelands to Sandil.
The dwarven army assembled in the Underdark. They pushed into the West and reclaim the tunnels taken over by the Xorians and their undead creatures. King Deekgaon led the vanguard as promised with Torin providing divine support. The war in the Underdark continued after the Second Alliance War’s conclusion. Torngar led his people to success in the end and their ancestral homes were reclaimed. A period of peaceful reconstruction followed before new forces threatened the united Dwarven Kingdom.
