The carnivorous bridge troll has varied eating habits, and when it tires of its normal diet of frogs and fish, it goes seeking “land meat.” Lurking in wait beneath piers or bridges, just below the water’s surface, the large beast leaps toward its unwary target. It comes, massive jaw distended like a shark’s maw, and vicious claws extended from the ends of its webbed fingers and toes, always primed and ready to rend the meat from the bones of its unlucky victims.

Rarely does one come grimmer than the harsh-faced elf called Hyls. This merciless weaponsmaster has been spotted various times just outside of Ios. He is unmistakable, with his shorn locks, two swords hanging at his hip, and a massive polearm always near at hand. They say he is an outcast, but for what reason no one knows. When the grim elf shows up in human settlements in the plains of Llael or the ragged wastes of the Marches, very few speak to him, for doing so is to risk one’s very life.

The Boldridges of southern Rhul are a well known and respected clan, but among them is one pistol-packing dwarf with an undeniable wanderlust. Maulgrun Boldridge rarely takes his seat among the clan leaders for long, often traveling the length and breadth of the Black River and the Dragons’ Tongue searching for ways to put his custom pistol and mechanikal blade to good use (and profit, of course).

Grindak is a figure of local renown in the highlands of Ord where he roves the moors from North Berck to the Olgunholt in search of his lady love. She was taken hostage by a band of raiders, and Grindak has vowed never to rest until they meet their ends upon the wicked edge of his iron axe.

Ogrun have slowly worked their way into acceptance within the kingdoms; though their great size and imposing bulk can cause some degree of trepidation. Ogrun are easily the tallest of the races of Western Immoren, and while their society may be a bit backward they live by a code of honor. Ogrun fulfill many roles within the human kingdoms, as both workmen and warriors. Ogrun stonework is renown as is their blacksmithing; but now Ogrun have become a frequent sight on the battlefield helping men wage their wars.

A greater evil is sometimes born in the places where many have met an evil end, animating their remains in a swarm of bone. This malignant force's singular intent is to slay the living and grow ever larger, like a cancer made of hate. Only the most stalwart of heroes can hope to defeat such an undead abomination, for those who fail only make it more powerful.

Charged with the protection of cities such as Corvis and Caspia, city guards see all manner of criminal and unnatural elements from the bravados of the street to the nameless horrors from the uncivilized places of the world.

Gamack was one of several Redhammers that traveled to Corvis decades after losing status within the Dwarven Moot. He is a master steamworker and the proprietor of Engines East in Corvis.

The Dwarven Mechanik miniature works well for a Dwarven Bodger or Arcane Mechanik.

Appearing as beautiful but extremely pale-skinned female humans with lithe bodies, Umbral Assassins literally strike out of shadows by supernatural means yet to be understood.
