66: Chaos Dwarfs History Pt1 | Warhammer Old World Lore
from Laying Down The Lore: Old World · host Laying Down The Lore
In this episode we turn to the history of the Chorfs in some detail. We start with the tale of the inventor of the Whirlwind and Tenderiser warmachines and his rearing of Boar Centaurs. We discuss the lack of solid lore for the faction before diving into an apocryphal work from the 1st edition of WFRP. We look at the history of the Dwarfs of the Dark lands before Chaos came, the Dark Lands were fertile, roamed by Orcs, Goblins, and Hobgoblins. We describe the impact of the Warpgates collapse as the Dwarfs sealed themselves underground, seemingly betrayed by their own kin from the west. Now trapped beneath impenetrable rock they search for a route back to the surface, they uncover an obsidian gallery and a sealed door inscribed with arcane glyphs. The seals are broken by a Rune Lord, unleashing Hashut, Father of Darkness with hilarious consequences. We close out the episode with Hashut blessing his followers, and twisting their enemies into monstrous servants.Chat with us on DiscordPatreonMerchandiseQuartermasterListen Ad-FreeSHOW IMAGES:3rd edition Warmachine artSwivel gun and Crossbow artChaos Dwarf Juggernaut1st Chaos Dwarf advertGreat TaurusLamassuBull Centaur
