Trodding Hammers

The largest and finest Dwarven army was the Trodding Hammers of Falgoon Gap, an elite combination of fanatical warriors and Priests.

They were pious and brave and dedicated themselves to Daeder: their banners and shields bore the sign of his red hammer.

The last shard of the key to Krell's prison was guarded by Daeder’s favored people in the citadel of Falgoon Gap. The citadel was defended by a stout army including the Trodding Hammers, who dedicated themselves to Daeder’s service and feared nothing save the Blue Sickness, but even Daeder's most fanatical followers, the Trodding Hammers, were slaughtered when the citadel fell.

The entire order of Trodding Hammers was not only slain but utterly destroyed during the siege.

It was generally thought that the order’s secrets died with its members: though the dead of Falgoon Gap were not known for their silence. Followers of Hellacaster were instrumental in the fall of Falgoon Gap, and it was Hellacaster who refused the ghosts of the city any peace, it was his malign influence that forced them to fight on even in death. It was rumored that the undead Trodding Hammers were able to pass on their knowledge to a select group of candidates, and that the secrets lived on.
