Indeed, business in all six of the major sky-ports is booming. The practical-minded Kharadron stand to benefit far more safeguarding their lucrative commercial practices than they do returning to the isolationist ways that marked their existence during the Age of Chaos. Such actions are not due to kind heartedness, but rather pure pragmatism. Д®very one of the sky-ports has hundreds of business partners, and the Kharadron airfleets not only guard their own innumerable mining operations and merchant routes, but often go to battle in support of their trading partnersвЂ™ interests. In the beginning the Kharadron Overlords bartered metal tools or weapons for foodstuffs or animal skins, but as the grip of Chaos on the Mortal Realms lessens, so do their trade partners multiply, as nomadic tribes come out of hiding and establish their own settlements. Later, however, the duardin will not hesitate to seek out the defeated natives and offer peaceful trade terms.

For instance, before engaging in mining activities atop a mountain they might first fight back the indigenous peoples that use the peak for primitive rituals. The Kharadron Overlords excel at both trade and war, and have no qualms about shifting rapidly from one to the other as need or opportunity arises. Just as the Fyreslayers honour their word, the Kharadron treat sworn oaths as sacrosanct, but they are more likely than other duardin to exploit loopholes in less-than-explicit contractual wording, especially if doing so will add substantially to their profits. All are relentless workers, driven to hone their craft. Like their kindred, the Kharadron Overlords are shorter than humans, broad-shouldered and known for their thick beards, great stamina and gruff natures. The Kharadron Overlords are a militaristic, mercantile society distinct from the other branches of the duardin present in the Mortal Realms. 1.6.2 The Aetherhe Aether-Khemists Guild.
