Valdornûst

Valdornûst were one member of roughly five animals unique to 
the Black Mountains. Their name meant "frostbeard" in the dwarven 
language. The dwarven clan Torgrymst Valdornûst used the Valdornûst for 
several things and as a result it became their clan name.
== Description ==
Valdornûst were hardy, sure-footed, goat-like animals, similar in 
appearance to Mountain Goats but they were a third larger and had longer
 horns which curled down to their cheeks.
== Use ==
The dwarves
 used them to ride over the rough terrain of the mountains as well as 
utilizing them for the production of milk, wool and meat. They were much
 more useful than Horses or donkeys because they had exceptional balance
 and gave a very smooth ride. They would find a safe path in rough 
territory with great ease. Some dwarven clans rode them into battle.
