Budger Blackpowder

Budger Blackpowder is a dwarven explosives specialist. He is the assistant of Ennis Granitestrider and together they seek to destroy the Forge operated by the Stone Summit deep within Sorrow's Furnace.

He escorts players during the quest the Forge Heart and provides ample explosives in the form of Dwarven Powder Kegs.

In Guild Wars Eye of the North, he is first encountered in Drakkar Lake, offering an unlimited supply of powder kegs for 100. If you hire him, he will follow you, even into neighboring explorable areas. He will not attack or use any skills, and enemies will not target him. His powder kegs are somewhat useful as they deal 50 armor-ignoring damage to adjacent foes and also knocks them down (if able). The powder kegs are actually bundle items. Dropping them triggers a countdown and the powder kegs explode in about 3 seconds. The explosion does not affect allies.

Dialogue
Sorrow's Furnace:
 * Do you know why me power kegs are so good? I use griffon guano to give 'em that extra kick!

Far Shiverpeaks:
 * "You look like you could use a bit of powder for your journey. I'll make you a deal; pay me 100 gold and I'll follow you and provide you with as many of my kegs...the powder kind...as you need."
 * Yes Hire Budger Blackpowder for 100 gold.
 * "Say, why don't we go find some things to blow up, eh?"
 * No I'll be on my way.

Approaching the 2 Dwarven Miners in Drakkar Lake (after hiring him and with the Big Unfriendly Jotun completed):
 * Budger Blackpowder: "Aye there, laddies! Keep up the good work. The powder we're making from this ore is some of the finest I've ever seen."
 * Dwarven Miner: "Just don't blow yourself up and put us out of a job, Budger. It's a beast of a hike back to Droknar's Forge."

Epilogue:
 * "Ha! Now THAT was an explosion. It was so beautiful it made me weep."
