The High King of the Dwarves is an infrequently-occupied political and military office of the Clans of Magnus. Elected by a convocation of the heads of the clans and with their unanimous assent, a High King is appointed in time of great peril for the Dwarves to lead them as one unified polity, holding the position until they expire, even after the crisis is concluded.

The High King rules from Khaz Urdim, the so-called "Sealed Capital". The first high king, Erim Magnussun, is one of the gods of the Dwarven Pantheon.
