Mahk is an Orc miner from the stronghold of Dushnikh Yal. You’ll find him in Dushnikh Mine, the stronghold’s own mine, doing what Orcs there are expected to do from a young age: dig.
Where to find them
Inside Dushnikh Mine. He shares the shifts with Dulug, Ghak and Oglub, so the tunnels are rarely empty.
Personality & relationships
There is honestly not much on record about Mahk. He gives no quests, offers no services and has no family listed – one of the stronghold’s background workers rather than one of its personalities. Still, he’s part of the reason the place runs at all: the ore he digs feeds the forge of Gharol, and the stronghold’s weapons and armor start with miners like him.
As with everyone else in Dushnikh Yal, he answers to Chief Burguk. Under Orc custom only the chief may take wives, so the stronghold’s other men spend their days working rather than starting families.
Good to know
- Stealing from the mine is a bad idea – it can get hired thugs sent after you.
