Many years ago Ungrim's five times great
grandsire, King Baragor, suffered a great and terrible loss which drove
him to take the oath of the Slayers. What caused him to make such a
sudden and drastic decision is not recorded in the Book of Grudges of
Karak Kadrin, nor in the Records of the Kings, nor even the
stronghold's Book of Days. It is commonly assumed that the cause was
the death of his daughter at the claws of the great dragon Skaladrak on
her way to marry the son of the High King at Karaz-a-Karak. In any
case, Baragor became the first Slayer King of Karak Kadrin.

Thorgrim is the descendant of the most ancient
and noble of all Dwarf Lords. The very blood of Grungni flows in his
veins and the wisdom of Valaya sits upon his beetling brow. The High
Kings have kept the Great Book of Grudges, the oldest and most
important of the many Books of Grudges which exist throughout the Dwarf
realms. This book, known as Dammaz Kron, recounts all the ancient
wrongs and deeds of treachery perpetrated against the Dwarf race. Its
pages are written in the blood of High Kings, and its tattered
parchment is much thumbed and studied.

Kragg is the Master Runelord of Karaz-a-Karak.
He is the oldest and by far the greatest living Runesmith -a gnarled
old Dwarf, strong and enduring as a weather-beaten oak. His mighty
white beard reaches to his feet. His great beetling brows cover eyes
deep as wells set over features as rough hewn as a granite cliff. His
expression is one of eternal disapproval. This is quite normal for a
Dwarf of his age who has seen many wonders and watched the inevitable
decline of craftsmanship and respect. Runesmiths come from all over the
Dwarf realms to sit at his feet and listen to his wise words. He knows
many of the secrets of ancient days, long forgotten by others, and is a
living link with near legendary past times. Kragg emerges only rarely
from the Underhalls of Karaz. Within the city's deepest depths he has
what virtually amounts to his own personal realm, a complex of mines
and forges near the roots of the mountain where many Runesmiths labour
on great projects under Kragg's supervision.
