Dwarf Lords are wise, old and powerful Dwarfs who often lead Throngs into battle. Lords are of royal blood, members of the clan of the King of the Hold.

Lords commonly bear into battle runic weapons, armour and talismans forged for them by the craft of the Runesmiths. They have gained a vast amount of experience in combat over hundreds of years. They are taught by both their elders and the Runesmiths and when the time comes for them to take command of an army for the first time they will have already been tested many times.

Lords are sometimes borne into battle on a large shield, which is carried by two strong and loyal retainers, called Shieldbearers.
