Kraak helzak as been a place for traditional dwarf rp, it is rp as a city-state, that has contacts with dukes, and various factions of swordcoast region, a fairly large standing army, and interest in the north, and the upperdark. The way the guild/city as been rp over the years, since 2011, and even before that with the ironfaar's. There is a small council that has the ear of the King (dovin battlehammer), to help direct his actions of the city state. (the king can be used because he is an npc's if there is a dm interested in dwarf lore.) Though not entirely dependent on the king, as there as been stints where dm support has less, and some where its been more, but dwarves live a long time
The leader of the council/guild promotes dwarf rp, requests dm event's, finds new members, and a lot of many other things. Also there is no reason a dwarf can't do other things with other guilds, many of the dwarves within kraak helzak have been in differen't guilds.
Think of it as being a citizen of baldurs gate, with influences on the leadership of the city if that is enough of an allusion.
