The Gutbuster Brigade is a famous battlerager squad lead by Thibbledorf Pwent. They are loyal to to Mithral Hall and its former[1] king, Bruenor Battlehammer. They have their own brand of gung-ho tactics and often disregard the order and discipline for which the Mithral Hall army is known, in favor of a more direct approach.[2]
History
Edit
The Gutbuster Brigade was formed in 1357 DR, when an army of drow attacked Mithral Hall. Thibbledorf Pwent hand-selected a score of dwarves to train as battleragers - a chaotic form of fighting, with different Battlerager Guilds having varying styles - Thibbledorf's personal 'art' consisted of putting on a full suit armor full covered in spikes, and throwing himself at the enemy, convulsing violently and shredding them. A highly efficient way of fighting in the narrow underground corridors, the young Gutbusters took the drow completely by surprise.[citation needed]
