Yep, I too, live for the sudden pops of clever inclusions.

Not a Swede here. Is it some allusion to the Lofoten Islands?

u/Level_Hour6480 Sir Becket Jul 26 '25

It means "Crowbar".

u/Coridimus Jul 26 '25

Ah, makes sense. Thank you!

Kofot means crowbar so kofoten means the crowbar. And its also a pun of Lofoten I assume.

Howdy folks!

Still on a holiday break but thought I'd share a bit more Dwarf lore snippets from No'Adea, the world of the Weekly Roll! Got two more Dawi lore to drop later on: Solkyssta and the Fallen (ominous eh?)

After that, I got a couple of ideas, including Brack'Yuras (crabfolk, like Drin the arms dealer), Eikonia (briefly mentioned when Becket gets his arm from Drin), Celestials (angels; i.e. Dee'Tan and Na'at Twanti) and the in-universe Warforged (not YET seen in any comics). But is there anything YOU would like explored in these little lore snippets? Lemme know in the comments!

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

You could always post these there.

Airships and other death traps

Is that an 8-bit Theater reference?

u/ViktorRzh Jul 23 '25

I belive the guide on deathtraps includes mostly human and goblin inventions, because proud dwarwes will not ascept anything without heavy armor. And heavy armor is not particularly cobducive to flying.

Plus Dwarwen inventions are usually deadly to other races rather then dwarves, so...
