Ironcrag is one of the major cities of Aurumhold.
- Geography: A fortified city in Aurumhold's southern cliffs, carved into obsidian mountains. The Obsidian Forge, an Umral-blessed Aetheric font, pulses with molten stone, fed by Myrath's subterranean channels, reached via cliffside paths.
- Culture: Gnomes, goliaths, dwarves, and warforged revere Umral and Othar during the Second and Fifth Umbral Moons, crafting armor to counter Stonefang's quakes. Ironcrag trades Aetheric alloys, prioritizing durability.
