GUNPOWDERS ARE FOR WAZZOCK!!

"(*staring at some umgak manling fire tube thrower*)
What a shame. What a shame. But back in my day, um hmm....
(*flashback to him observing a ballista barrage while riding a Carnosaur he had yoked*)
tsk, tsk, tsk, these darn kids!"

– Thorek Ironbrow, being a boomer

Thorek Ironbrow, also known as The Ultimate Dwarf Boomer is the Master Runelord of Karak Azul and, some say, the greatest Dwarf Runelord alive with only Kragg The Grim being his only actual equal. He is known for making the finest weapons, being a traditionalist who shuns reckless youngster engineer with their new technology, and being a perfectionist who never made a mistake. He is also the bane of any Apprentice Runesmith who would kick them out in the most brutal manner for even the smallest mistake that other Runesmiths and Runelords would simply point out and tell to fix (Kraggi was kicked out multiple times for this, but somehow Thorek would take him in again and again for some reason). Thorek died during the End Times, perpetrating a suicide bombing to prevent capture of important lore and relics.

Total War: WARHAMMER

Thorek was added as a FLC lord in the Hammers & Herdstones update. In the vortex campaign, the old boomer led an expedition to Lustria in order to uncovered lost Artifacts of the Dwarfs' Golden Age and reforge them into a powerful power-creep army abilities or items that allows his army to steamroll any enemies.

One of the reforged artifact is a rune collar that allows the Dwarf to tame a Carnosaur, hinting the possibility of adding Shard Dragons in the Dawi roster. Curious, the collar belongs to a possible Dwarf ancestor god named Raton, which the internet nor the rulebook has references of.

Since he is a traditionalist, he prefer the use of old tools of war like Grudge Throwers, Bolt Throwers and crossbows and buff their damage and ap to a ridiculous level, surpass the ap damage of those gunpowder umgak inventions. Being a Rune Lord, Thorek can slap a rune on his bolt thrower, turning their shots into guided tomahawk missiles that deals anti-large damage, and once against surpass the damage output and accuracy of cannons.
