It is said that they were the first of the Great Tribes to cross the Worlds Edge Mountains - this is substantiated by the chronicle of the Norse Dwarf Yngvarr Iorvarrsson who encountered the tribe along with the Frikings, Norsii, Ropsmenn and Ungols. [1a]
Inscriptions in Black Fire Pass some twenty years later imply that the Great Tribes entered and moved through the pass as a confederacy. [1a]
With the aid of the Dwarfs tunnelled up to the top of the Fauschhlag and seeking to become maqster of all he could see from its heights, Artur and his warriors drove the Jutones out of their lands. [2a]
Griseldis, daughter of the chief of the tribe fell pregnant by the god Ulric and fled into the tunnels of the Ulricsberg to have her child. There she was fed meat by wolves, drinking water from a holy spring. Ulrics first mortal child was born there in the Womb of the Wolf. [1b]
In the summer of 1 IC, Sigmar called for a great muster against Marius of the Jutones and with their allies, he marched on him with a combined force of around 10,000 warriors, Armoured warriors of the tribe joing the army. [3a]

Quotes
Wolkold's Teutogens fought through the hordes until they achieved the uplands. With Courage driving them onwards, they climbed. Countless weak souls fell in those mountains, all too pitiful to stand by Ulric's side. After years unnumbered, Wolkold broke through to the other side, and Ulric's Chosen howled down the mountainside, irrepressible as blood from an open wound. At last, Wolkold had found Ulric's Hunting Grounds. He named the mountains The Worlds Edge; for his people would never cross them again, and gathered the Teutognens to his side. Now, they .......could conquer.
