The Angry Fist Tribe, also just called the Angry Fist, is an advanced Ogre tribe that lives in the western valleys of the Mountains of Mourn, between the River Ruin and the Fire Mouth volcano.[2a]

History[]

When two Imperial explorers stumbled across the Angry Fist tribe of Ogres, they made history. Having displayed a hitherto unseen mastery of fire, considerable culinary prowess and strange flat stones that showed perfect reflections -- all before dinnertime -- they managed to convince their captors they were of more use alive than spitted and eaten, although the Ogres reasoned they only needed one, and roasted the other.[1b][3a]

The survivor, Reuben Kyte, went on to make highly valuable tinderboxes for the Ogres of the Angry Fist and eventually became their Firemaster -- the closest a Human could ever get to the Ogre rank of tyrant. Kyte's memoirs make for illuminating reading, and the once-barbaric Angry Fist tribe is now one of the most culturally and technologically advanced of the Ogre Kingdoms, with everything from working kilns to modern toilet rooms (and the appropriate Gnoblars) at their disposal.[1b][3a]

The Angry Fist is also the tribe that assaulted the Dwarf Hold of Karak Azorn. The tyrant of the Angry Fist tribe, Thogub Smashclub, had learned first hand of the riches stored within such strongholds and had a fondness for roast Dwarf meat from his adventuring days in the Worlds Edge Mountains and thus led a successful assault on the stronghold. A great bonfire was made amidst the gutted great-hall and there the Ogres roasted Dwarfs and swilled ale by the barrelful. The assault on Karak Azorn is a bloody testament to Ogre destructiveness and the driving power of their gluttony.[2b]

This tribe is rumoured to have devoured the notoriously untrustworthy Marienburger trader Yohan the Honest and his entourage when he tried to cheat them.[1a]
