The Ivenhall Trade Organization[]
Morick Ivenhall was a miner and entreprenuer who established a trade outpost along the Rion to export the cold iron found in the Stoneback Mountains. As his business grew, he established the Ivenhall Mining Group, a cartel composed of several mining companies in the region who colluded to increase profits. Control of the Ivenhall Mining Group stayed within the Ivenhall family until it collapsed after the Underhill disaster. While many speculate that the Ivenhall family deliberatly sabotaged the Underhill's lair, causing it to collapse in 3472, there is no direct evidence. Documentary evidence discovered by scholars at the Dubnar School suggests that the Ivenhall Group felt threatened by these new explorers, but there is no indication that they held violent motives. Regardless, the public reaction to the incident forced the other members of the Group to leave, and eventually the Ivenhalls went bankrupt. Several decades after the Underhill incident, the surviving companies formed the Ivenhall Trade Organization to once again control the supply of cold iron and other mined exports from the region.
