Ridomir “Cudgel” Ironsmile
(Draco Malfoy)

   Cudgel Ironsmile (neutral, hill dwarf veteran) hailed from the dwarven nation of Kayolin, south of Solamnia. For most of her life, she adventured with Becklin and Ispin, earning the nickname Cudgel along the way. At the start of the adventure, she commanded her own company of mercenaries known as the Ironclad Regiment. Though small, the company had built a reputation for beating the odds, thanks in large part to her adroit leadership. Beyond a life of fighting, the middle-aged dwarf was a gifted card player. She also has a soft spot for Vogler, which she swore served the best fish pies in Solamnia.

   She reportedly died on the battlefield, stabbed in the back and betrayed by her own lieutenant, Jeyev Veldrews, defending Vogler from the invading Red Dragon Army.
