Dur-Skuthruga
The Skuthrugrai (Or. "Dark-murderers") occupied the easternmost passes in the Great Spur of the northern Misty Mountains. Situated almost due south of Litash, their domain straddled the main route between the eastern parts of Rhudaur and the Nan Angmar. It was a region rich in copper and tin, a source of much of the Witch-kingdom's bronze. Few people used the narrow defile that cutted through Dur-Skuthruga (Orc."Skuthrugra territory") because the Skuthrugrai were notorious cannibals. They loved to hunt, and they ate virtually any meat—even the flesh of their own kind. Only a succession of strong Chieftains and a deep respect for the Warlord Rogrog had kept them from being wiped out.
