Spent a couple minutes doing laundry and came up with this so far, there are things mentioned therein I am still fleshing out, so don't worry about the named details per say, but on the over all so far....
First Borne: The oldest clan, by both claim, and accumilated runic tablet. The First Borne carry with them all that is the "traditional" dwarf in culture, style, music, craftsmanship, and life. They seek to bring all the clans back to this tradition and way of thinking. They hold the most sway when moots meet, as well, their thanes are reknown warriors, priests, and protectors. They are viewed as arrogant, demanding, and overbaring by the other clans, but they see this as the way dwarves should be, and the other clans just cannot see past this.
Appearance: The First Borne appear, to many if not all, the iconic dwarf in every aspect. They are shout, powerfully built, even the women, and have flowing beards and hair which they wear in elaborate knots and braids to show both station and prowess. The one trait that sets the First Borne appart physically is they all have amber colored eyes that seem to shine brilliantly, even in the dark. No amount of disguise can hide this, even magical ones fail to conceal the aspect, and all know a First Borne when they look upon them.
Persona: Arrogent, demanding, and proud, even when compared to other dwarven peoples. The First Borne see it as their birthright to rule the dwarven nations, and act accordingly. They treat other clans like the younger brothers and sisters who don't know any better, and always strive to bring them in line with what is truely dwarven in each aspect.
Spirituality: The First Borne are devoute to the Forge Father, and some say to a fanatical level, but to them, this is how it should be, and always will be if they have any say in the matter. Their lives are ruled by custom, ritual, and respect. They serve those above them in station, and lead those below them without wavor. The Forge Father is first and formost their god, and the other beings of divinity are his servants, and looked at like saints and other devine instruments of the Forge Father.
The Maiden of Blades Rebelion, as they see it, is a direct affront to the Forge Father in their eyes, and they seek to hunt and illiminate all of the traitos and heritics.
Language: The First Borne, or Gladriethien, speak Glithral the oldest of the rune tounges, and view the other runic tounges as slang and loath the speak them when all should speak Glithral.It is a "heavy" language and almost every word is multisylibol. EX: Eliolad, Elithrandir,Galebririon, Galil-Gandel, Legynduil, Thrilmandel, and Torfithien. There is no distinction between male and female names in Glithral. They will speak common when in the company of the other Clans at moots out of respect for their "lesser" educated brothren and sisters.
Racial Traits: The First Borne embody the typical dwarf and have no change to their racial traits.
Classes: The First Borne view the druidic faiths, in all forms, as a debased and primitive form of worshipping the Forge Father. To that end, they First Borne cannot be a druid of any kind. They also distrust arcane magics in general but tollerate arcane casters as long as they known their roles and do not debase themselves. With that said, Witches are hunted down without mercy, the First Borne say that the Maiden of Blades is nothing more then a witch-hag trying to destroy all that is dwarven.
Rare as Cavaliers, Rogues, and Ninja due to the strict codes of honor they have.
Where as Fighters, Paladins, Clerics (of the Forge Father), and Inquisitors (of the Forge Father) are the most common. Some view the Armiger as the pinicle of dwarven pride and honor, and the Iron Bound are a source of much pride, legend, and myth.
