Abyssal Dwarf Halfbreeds vary, but usually take the form of the upper torso of a dwarf fused with the body of a quadruped abyssal.
About
They are intelligent enough to wield weaponry and follow some orders, but their low status and the chronic pain of their tortured forms drives them into a state of fury, making them dangerous and unpredictable on the battlefield.
The Abyss’s unwholesome presence is not restricted to engines of war, and too often living beings are the focus of the sorcerous engineers of the fallen dwarfs. The dreaded halfbreeds are the most widely known of the Iron-casters’ mad experiments. Sick amalgams of bull-like quadrupeds and dwarf, the heavy thunder of their hooves are heard and feared further across the northern steppes as the herald of death or slavery.
Most Abyssal Dwarf Halfbreeds are reckoned too unruly and unpredictable of temperament to command others of their kind, resulting in them being set lose upon the foe individually or in small groups in the manner of mindless berserkers. The one exception is the fearsome Warlord Brakki Barka. So preternaturally strong is Barka, and so unending the extremes of his fury when denied, that he has risen to a station that none of his cursed kind has ever been known to hold. He is the lord of the army of an entire temple-bastion, known as Bhardoom. The Legion of Bhardoom has earned a reputation as being both utterly relentless and supremely obedient. Even the slightest transgression amongst the legion is met with uncompromising force.
Sick amalgams of bull-like quadrupeds and dwarf, the heavy thunder of their hooves are heard and feared further across the northern steppes as the herald of death or slavery. Halfbreeds form the Abyssal Dwarf equivalent of shock cavalry. Charging the enemy at first sight, galloping at great speed before swinging their heavy hammers to crush the foe.
