The Dammaz
Kron
It is for time Immemorial that I put pen to these
pages. Be it known to all who view these hallowed pages that to look upon these
names is to read of death. A name put to letters within this tome is forfeit of
life.
Those to whom this tome is entrusted are from now through eternity guided to
meet out Dwarven justice with prejudice! No quarter shall be offered, nor
accepted from an enemy upon these pages. They shall be accorded no honor, no
pity. By their acts against the Dwarven nation they have sealed their fate and
the Bearer's shall see to it.
Lord Damon Omenborn
High Dwarven King
1) The Orc Clans.
This grudge has been entered against the Orcs for
waging war on all races of Britannia and the murder and slavery of untold
dwarfs. No Orc shall be spared, from the strongest
warrior to mewling cub, as a race they shall fall to our Axes and Hammers.
2) The Ogre Tribes
Let it be recorded that for Conspiring with the greenskins
in waging war upon the Dwarven kingdom, for killing and looting of many Dwarven
caravans. From the highest to the lowest all shall know Dwarven steel.
3) The Troll Clans
Lest they never be forgotten, we record a grudge against the Troll clans for
conspiring with the Orcs and Ogres in waging war on
the Sons of Grungni, for the barbaric habit of hunting dwarves and using
Dwarves as game. For the countless atrocities committed against the peoples of
Clan Omenborn. They shall be routed from their swamps and mountains to be
destroyed. Let no Dwarf rest until this deed is done and the last Troll is
slain.
4) Kharas, Leader of the famed Hammerers, has noted a
grudge against Telimicus for insults made while Kharas was in heated battle against Earth Elementals. For
this let no dwarf rest till this manling breathes any
more.
5) With a saddened heart I take quill to hand and enter another grudge against
the Orcs, This one is for the death of my wife Willow Omenborn. For this
grievous wound do I make this record for all to read. We shall renew our efforts to bring all of Orc-kind to pay for their murderous deeds.
6) Mistral Omenborn has noted a grudge against Firebird. This base brigand did
loot the noble warriors who fell during the Battle of Icewall.
7) An expedition had been sent forth to discover the treasure lost at Kazad Uzkul, T'was led by one of
the bravest warriors of Clan Omenborn, Kharas, They
met vast resistance from many of the Undead and many stout warriors from the
Order of Stonesoul were slain, a foul manling miscreant named Davin did
hurl insults and looted many who did fall, for this crime and others his name
is now entombed in the book of grudges.
8) Dillon Omenborn has taken a grudge against the Manling
Angus for his wanton slaughter of the brave duelists of Jhelom,
Let no dwarf let this heathen live.
9) The High King Himself, Lord Damon Omenborn, has taken a Grudge against the
foul murderer Lurdness for his cowardly attack upon
the King and stealing much needed supplies, to all who read these words let him
know how Dwarfs make justice.
10) The Dark Elven houses for trespassing upon our
homelands within the belly of the Frozen Mountains. Forever shall they
be remembered for waging war upon our peoples during the age of Ruin, for
kidnapping of citizens of the Dwarven nation to fill their slave pens, and for
the pacts made with demon spawn during their use of black magics.
These fiends shall be routed from our halls. Let no Dark Elf tread the lands of
Britannia. We shall share our home no longer with these vermin. They shall be
slaughtered to the last pointy-eared child, their bodies dragged to the surface
to be bleached in the sun so that their rotting corpses shall not soil our
home!
11) A grudge has been entered against the murderous Juka
for encroaching upon our lands, for the raiding of our merchant caravans and
their raids and wonton destruction of the outlying villages of our nations.
Their presence has gone beyond a mere nuisance. These beasts must be put down
and every trace of their vile existence erased from our mountains. They must be
rooted out of every cave and bolt-hole and be put to the task.
12) A grudge has
been made by Kharas against the manling
Quentis McCrae, on behalf of his cowardly attack upon
him while Kharas stood his post as Gatekeeper of Karak Kol. Let no Dwarf rest till
his head is on a pike adorning the very Gates of Karak
Kol.
13) Octor of the Ironbreakers has
recorded a grudge against the manling Bucket head of
the Highland Guard for his aiding and abetting the enemy
while warriors of the clan did battle in the depths of Khaldun.
Let this misdeed be avenged afore any more grudges weigh the dwarf nation down.
14) On the seventh
day in the month of July the Murderer GeeKay did
attempt to assault Karak-Kol and was repelled, but
for his attempt we shall still seek retribution.
