==History==
Kazmojen was the product of a mad wizard’s experiment at crossbreeding a male dwarf with a female troll.
Lacking strong parental guidance as an ugly youth, Kazmojen quickly learned the three rules of survival in the Darklands: Never buy food from a stranger, never take your eyes off your traveling companions, and never let anyone see you cry. His troll heritage also reinforced a general loathing of acid and fire.
Kazmojen found Prickles, his juvenile howler companion, on a Darklands expedition. He treated Prickles better than all of his other servants combined and was known to become positively enraged if Prickles was harmed.
Kazmojen came to the Malachite Fortress, long-abandoned by Zenith Splintershield, in 4702 AR with a small force of hobgoblins. He convinced the few remaining defenders to surrender, and incarcerated them. He then spent the better part of a year building his slave trade business, fortifying his hold on the fortress, and cultivating loyal clientele.
Not long after he began plundering Cauldron for worthy slaves, Kazmojen received a visit from Z-arn K'yass. Z-arn informed him that his "employer" had agreed to let Kazmojen continue his raids in exchange for information on various “movers and shakers” in the Darklands. Kazmojen previously received this information from many of his clients, among them a vile durzagon (half-fiend duergar) named Pillars Shyatt.

===Death===
Kazmojen was killed in combat by the Keepers of the Cauldron when they arrived in time to interrupt the auction of the missing children from the Lantern Street Orphanage. His hobgoblin forces and pet, Prickles, were subsequently destroyed when they foolishly attacked the beholder that arrived to claim the boy, Terrem.
