Duregar
Lord Duregar is a Dwarf Lord of Karaz-a-Karak and older kinsman of King Belegar. [1a][2]
History
The descendants of Lunn, last king of Eight Peaks gathered under Belegar and reoccupied an old citadel on the surface which he hopes to use as a base to reclaim the whole hold. Although they managed to recover some treasures and made their new home almost impregnable, they could not extend their control into the depths where the greenskins and Skaven warred with each other as well as the Dwarfs. [1a]
In an attempt to break the deadlock, Belegar requested further aid from his kinsmen in Karaz-a-Karak and his oldest relative, Lord Duregar raised an army, marching to Karak Eight Peaks. As they progressed, they fought and defeated a greenskin army at the Battle of the Jaws in Mad Dog Pass. [1a][2]
He marched on to the Beleagured hold itself and when he found himself surrounded by large numbers of greenskins and challenged Skarsnik's horde. As the battle continued, Belegar emerged from the hold, cutting a path through the Night Goblins until they met and fought back to back. Offering him a drink in his hall, the King led the newcomers back into the relative safety of the reclaimed part of the hold. [2]
