Daemonsmith Sorcerer (Metal) (Bale Taurus)
Part-mechanical engineer, part-black sorcerer. The very definition of heartless evil.Daemonsmiths, also known as Hell-Workers or simply Chaos Dwarf Sorcerers, are both the priest and artificers of their society, ruling over the desolate empire of Zharr-Naggrund with iron-fisted malice. Their lore is terrible and ancient, and involves the study of machines, and the mastery of forge-craft, weapon making and the terrible Chaos magics gifted to them by Hashut. Combined, these create terrifying weapons and arcane devices of power and destruction. Daemonsmiths are few in number, with perhaps no more than several hundred amongst the whole Chaos Dwarf race capable of wielding their savagely powerful combination of science and sorcery.
