The Iron Temple was designed and built by Lord [[Silimar]] after the former [[Warlord]] [[Felwinter]] joined the Iron Lords and granted them use of Felwinter Peak for their headquarters. Over the years, hundreds of Iron Lords made it their home. With the Iron Lords' demise, Lord [[Saladin Forge]] sealed the Temple as a memorial to his friends and left it abandoned for some four-hundred years. During the [[SIVA Crisis]], the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] attempted to plunder the Temple for information related to SIVA, but were thwarted by the [[Guardian]]. The Iron Temple is now home to a new generation of Iron Lords.
