Dom Boarbatter

"Dig deep and stand proud. These halls are our right" - The inspirational Dom Boarbatter

At a Glance


Dom Boarbatter was a Dwarf King during the Necrotic War. Electing to instigate an isolationist policy, Dom made an agreement with Talmon Bott to spare the Dwarven city of Hammertask the horrors of war raging across the surface.

Public opinion on Dom was divided following the Necrotic War after the defeat of the Cult of Vecna. While thankful for the peace their king had afforded them, many Dwarves still felt animosity towards Dom due to the peace-agreement with the ill-reputable necromancer. Nevertheless, their survival outweighed their guilt and Dom Boarbatter went down in history as a hero, if not one slightly coloured by his compliance with evil.

Back to Black
When a group of adventurers travelled back in time to stop corruption in the time-stream, they encountered the Dwarf King in the opulence of his grand hall. Pleading for his assistance, Dom was eventually convinced to lend aid to the heroes provided they bestow him with a gift -- the book of Bellaire. In exchance for this treasure, Dom marched on the Necrotic Canyon with Richard Kirk and the Fate Dancers.

Victorious, Dom drank his fill of ale in celebration. During these festivities, however, his treasure was thieved by the same band of adventurers who had requested his aid. Ordering their capture, Dom was humiliated by the experience and when the building of High Moor began Dom remained vigilant in ensuring that the adventurers never had their statues built upon the memorial.

Age of Adventure
Dom Boarbatter eventually passed away from old age and high blood pressure, citing the loss of the Book of Bellaire as driving his nerves to ruin.

He was succeeded as king by Pym Whiffton.
