''' This is the application for the King of the Broadbeams, Azaghâl. '''



 My name is Dennis also known as MineOfDuty. I have played the mod for about 2 years now, started playing on TOS with a friend. I've been Rohan for a long time, living in Aldburg. I did a small faction change to Lamedon because the old leader needed my assistance. I have switched too many times on Second Age, and that will not happen again, I promise. I will stay in my current position as dwarf, accepted or not.



 The reason I want this role, is because I really like being a dwarf and building underground. Also my friends are dwarf too so we will create a big and strong kingdom and rule it all. I want to focus on building Belegost on the server, the main haven of the Broadbeams. I've built a various amount of different things on Second Age, from dwarven halls to corrupted orc hideouts. I'm going to build Belegost and no other projects until the first one is finished. My experiences on the server are not always quite positive, often quarreling with people and especially the kind of hatred against staff. I would therefore like to apologize for everything I have said and done on Second Age. If I could get one last chance to prove myself that would be highly appreciated.



 On the upcoming server I intend to become the king of broadbeams, I'm a fairly big fan of roleplay. I have unfortunately not been able to make much use of roleplay on Second Age. On the other hand, I want to take a closer look at my roleplay, doing more roleplay related things etc. Even though I'm not really the best at lore, The First Age lore is kind of new to me, just because I haven't really seen/read any other LOTR stuff. I want to build a well-managed kingdom with my friends. I've learned from my mistakes in leadership on Second Age, which has not always been a successful time.



 Azaghâl is the king of the Broadbeam tribe who lives in the Blue Mountains (Ered Luin). Belegost, Great City in Sindarin, is one of the two dwarven cities west of the Ered Luin. The dwarves of Belegost were the finest smiths and stonecarvers in Middle Earth. In their armourer's halls they made many bright weapons and were the first people to forge chainmail.



 While traveling on the Dwarvenroad in Eastern Beleriand, Azaghâl was waylaid by a horde of orcs. Azaghâl and the few other dwarfs were heavily outnumbered and started to fight, as really expected they couldn't win because the horde was too large. But then, suddenly they heard a really loud horn and everyone looked at the place it was all coming from. On the small hill they saw Maedhros, ready to take them out. He jumped off the hill and the horde started attacking which gave Azaghâl the chance to get up and fight back. After a long lasting fight the two only survived. Maedhros saved Azaghal' life and treasure. Because of his heroic action he gave the helmet made by Telchar, the Smith of Nogrod to Maedhros. Now known as Helm of Hador, made out of heavy steel and decorated with gold out of the deepest mines.



 Azaghâl and his Dwarves joined the Union of Maedhros and during the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, the eastern host would have been utterly destroyed if not for the valor of the Dwarves of Belegost. For they were naturally able to withstand the dragons' fire better than Elves or Men, and moreover they wore great iron masks that gave them additional protection. These dwarves formed the rearguard of the eastern host, and allowed the remaining Elves and Men to escape the dragons. Azaghâl, King of the Dwarves of Belegost, gathered his forces and formed a ring around Glaurung to keep him at bay. Such was their strength and the keenness of their axes that even Glaurung's armored hide was not invulnerable to their blows. Enraged, Glaurung struck down Azaghâl and crawled over him, but with his last strength Azaghâl ran a dagger through Glaurung's belly, and the dragon fled in pain. With him fled all the beasts of Morgoth. In a solemn ceremony the Dwarves picked up their fallen leader, forgetting about the battle, and they marched his corpse home.



 Thanks a lot for reading this application and have a nice day!
