Motivations of Thurien

He wishes to see the dwarves ascendant and he believes that the other races of Khormen lack the will and resolve to assert themselves. Thurien is disgusted by the amalgam of races in Khormen proper, mainly because, to him, they lack a cohesive cultural identity. Only the dwarves know what is best and have the fortitude to carry out what needs to be done. Thurien's primary focus (desire to rise to the top of a well disciplined Khormen army) will be a dangerous and expensive endeavor. Thus, his short and medium term goals are:

1. Lead a dwarven family militia. Make it the most disciplined and professional military outfit in the region, respected even by those of Khormen. Eventually become the leader of all dwarven militia forces. Leverage this reputation into a senior officer position in the King's military.

2. Ensure that the dwarves are the undisputed masters of trade in the region. Eventually, "all roads to Khormen go through the dwarves" with our people taking a healthy cut of all trade in exchange for our weights and measures standards, our military protection and our reputation.

3. On the side, and using my learned knowledge and contacts from legitimate trade endeavors, set up an illicit trade that enriches me personally. Thurien intends to use the funds to pay for excellent equipment for his troops and for himself.
