"I wanted to see my works in action. Who knows why any artist is drawn to a certain medium? Mine was metal and iron, battles and bronze, iron and steel, blood and glory. Well, my art slices and hacks, parries and thrusts, how could I possibly make them if I didn't know how to use them? Bloody stars, I loved the challenge."

-Clangorum (Book of Clangorum)

Clangorum would have been an artist of the Fourth Circle for His unquestioned smithing talent, but passed himself off as a Second Circle warrior instead because he desired to put his creations to use in battle.

During the Elder Wars, He led a formation known as "Clangorum's Hammer". Maintained a great forge using the heat from the lava beneath the Razamore Mountains and Mount Zokala. After Orlachmar was changed from being brought back with Fain's Elixir, Clangorum forged special weapons and armor that could withstand Orlachmar's negative excoroperditio energies. When Malmydia experimented upon Thax and nearly destroyed His physical form, Clangorum was tasked with creating a suit of armour made from zingavium steel to contain what was left of His essence.

He would eventually splinter to become the dwarves, who still sometimes refer to themselves as clangoru.
