-Dwarves are the second most populous race in Brevoy, and The Golka Clan were once ranked among the most powerful of groups.  However, their main holdings were ‘lost’ about 15 years ago, and they are working their way towards recovery.  The Golka are a super-clan -  made up of a number of smaller clan and family groups, who associated under one leadership.  Now that leadership is gone, but the dwarves have a natural tendency to work together for the benefit of all Dwarves (That is what a LG racial alignment does for you).  So there is a concerted effort to ‘better’ themselves and their race – still under the banner of ‘The Golka’.+Dwarves are the second most populous race in Brevoy, and The Golka Clan were once ranked among the most powerful of groups.  However, their main holdings were ‘lost’ about 15 years ago, and they are working their way towards recovery.  The Golka are a super-clan -  made up of a number of smaller clan and family groups (such as the Silverhammer, Bouldershoulder, Stigmar and Thaddeson families), who associated under one leadership.  Now that leadership is gone, but the dwarves have a natural tendency to work together for the benefit of all Dwarves (That is what a LG racial alignment does for you).  So there is a concerted effort to ‘better’ themselves and their race – still under the banner of ‘The Golka’.
  
-There are many smaller clans and groups within The Golka (such as the Silverhammer, Bouldershoulder, Stigmar and Thaddeson families) but none are, currently, significant enough to detail.  Many still take a name associated with the Golka super-clan.+While Dwarves are spread widely across the land, they all share a common 'traditional' things that all Dwarves consider to be part of their heritage. While not always a part of every day life, this Cultural Heritage often brings a smile to a Dwarf's face and makes them think of a barely existent 'Old Home'.  It is also the themes that run through the 'Dwarf Bar', traditional festivals and meetings of old friends.
