These well-seasoned dwarf rangers had a wide-ranging and varied reputation amongst those of Karak Azul. They were mountain-scalers extraordinaire. Some say this was where their unit name originated, for they could all climb cliffs and tumbled rock like bouldergoats – the famed hairy beasts that roamed the shear-sided peaks of the Worlds Edge Mountains. Others intended that moniker in a less savoury manner. But tales aside, it was they who led King Kazador's army, unerringly trailing Thorek's expedition although the route was strange to them.[1a]
