Uzkulak

Uzkulak, also known as the Place of the Skull, was the seat of the Dwarfs of the East before the Great Catastrophe turned them into Chaos Dwarfs.

Around 1000 IC, in order to fuel the ever increasing demand for slaves, a great sea canal was constructed linking the Falls of Doom to the north of Zharr-Naggrund with the Sea of Chaos to the west of Uzkulak, giving the Chaos Dwarf fleet an exit in the north.

It is a strange, secretive place, and the bustling workings of its slave-port and anchorage hide an ancient inner-city that is little more than a heavily garrisoned tomb. The forbidden, lower levels of Uzkulak are shunned, even by its masters and to be consigned to its depths is a punishment reserved for oath-breakers and blasphemers as the worst fate the Chaos Dwarfs can bestow. A fact which, given the malevolent inventiveness of the Daemonsmiths in such matters, speaks much of the horrors which must abide there.
