Also known as King Alric Ranulfsson of Karak Hirn.
Even amongst a race as steeped in custom and tradition as the Dwarfs, King Alrik is regarded as particularly devoted to the customs of his ancestors. Perhaps it is because Karak Hirn, as one of the Grey Mountains holds, is regarded by many Dwarfs as being somehow new and unproven (despite being several thousand years old) that makes Alrik such a stickler for the old ways. Borne into battle upon the shield of his great-great-great-Grandfather Kurgaz, considered a giant amongst Dwarfs and founder of Karak Hirn, Alrik has endeavored to settle many scores from the Karak Hirn book of Grudges.
King Alrik wages war with the mighty axe of retribution, which he had made especially for his crusade to avenge the wrongs done to his Hold, and he wears Hrappi-klad, a heavy suit of golden armour which is the traditional battle garb of the Kings of Karak Hirn.
