Among the greatest armourers in the Empire is a Dwarf named Dalbran Fellhammer. Having lived in the Empire for nearly 30 years, Dalbran is the authority on armoursmithing. He maintains a forge in Altdorf, where he employs 30 journeymen and nearly 100 apprentices. Part of Dalbran’s success comes from his part in forging the Emperor’s armour. He was responsible for integrating components of armour worn by Magnus the Pious and moulding black gromril to augment the general effectiveness of the suit. Dalbran is extremely expensive to hire, but those who can a ord his prices are never disappointed.[1a]
