For a few years Nalim was a rising star in the hold of Kazad Dawr. He rose quickly to become the head of the hammerers, and it looked like he would rise further still. That was until he took the oath to protect the lore master Kodri. When the dwarf died, Nalim presented himself to the council for judgement. Because of 'chaotic' circumstances, Nalim couldn't have even physically been there to save him, but the shame was still all to real.
Thorin Bjarson, the head priest of Grungni, with the other priests, decided on what was to be done with Nalim. He was appointed to clear the hold of every single skaven that infested it or die trying. Not only that, but he would not be allowed into the hold, or onto the surface, until that task was done. To that end Nalim now resides at the Stromez Ruf and he can be constantly seen going down into Vongal Ungor and beyond hunting the Skaven. It is said that hundred have died to his hammer, though the exact count is unknown.
Nalim is a sullen dwarf with a haunted look on his face. He never speaks unless he has to and when he does it is brief. He no longer wears his gromril armour or has his gromril great hammer, but instead he wears bloodstained plate armor. His mere presence has been enough to rout smaller skaven scouting parties.

And yes, the idea was stolen from Drasanil
- Tyl Joined the mercenary guild
- Tyl With the aid of Tilkar, a half elven mercenary, the pair killed a notorious grave robber and all thirteen members of his gang
- Tyl Went on a journey to the town of Sevalodoc as the guard of a noble woman of the Von Ritter house. During the journey, he and his fellow mercenaries fought off ambushing beastmen and razed a town that had been over run by the undead. Nalim personally led the charge into their strong point in what was the inn and killed the necromancer, destroying the undead. When it turned out the city of Svealodoc had fallen, they made the trip back alongside a band of surviving nobles of the house Ritter.
- Tyl Alongside a pair of norse mercenaries, Nalim wiped out the Blue Ferret gang of footpads as well as the surviving norse mercenary who turned on him once the battle was won
- Tyl With Tararmis, a fellow mercenary, the feared bandit Goul was brought to justice
- Tyl Made another trip to Sevalodoc, this time in search of an heirloom of the Von Ritter family, a magical ring. It was retrieved after a hard fought journey to get to the city, and then an even harder fight threw a horde of cultists to retrieve it. Luckily, they were successful, as they stopped the cultists from using the ring to summon forth an army daemons.
- Tyl Nalim defeated an ogre man-eater which had been plauging the Tylian trade routes
- Kazad Nalim fought in the second siege of Kazad Dawr against the Skaven. He fought in the desperate tunnel fighting against the elite storm vermin that had gotten behind the dwarven lines, and then fought within the temple of Vallaya against the gutter runners who had come to assassinate the priestess there. While all of the Skaven died, they were successful in their mission.
- Kazad Dawr Following the desperate battles behind the front lines, which ended with the death of every Skaven infiltrater, Nalim joined the counter attack which hit the Skaven horde in the flank, breaking their lines and their morale.
- Kazad Dawr With the siege over, Nalim was gifted with a miraculous recovery of his numerous wounds by the ancestor gods. The gift came at a price, as he was commanded to attack the Skaven who had taken up residence bellow the hold.
- Kazad Dawr With the aid of Caldath and his men who were guarding the mines, Nalim attacked the Skaven held Stromez Ruf. The bridge was taken, but only at great cost. Even without the aid of the vampiric powers that Caldath possessed, Nalim survived where every other mortal fell and earned himself a place in the history of the hold.
- Kazad Dawr After his heroisism at the Stromez Ruf, Nalim became the hold's first new hammerer, as well as the commander of the Palace Guard.
- Kazad Dawr Nalim successfully went on the Doom Stones Quest, but in the proccess broke his oath to protect Loremaster Kodri. Because of this he became bound by honor to kill every last skaven that threatens the hold. He has been fighting to fulfill this oath for the past century.
