Ratling warlord is a type of monster in ADOM. The strongest and toughest of all ratlings, the warlords are nasty opponents that always punch through armor. Like ratlings of lower melee ranks they can disarm the PC, though they seem to do this quite infrequently compared to the fencers or duelists. Ratling warlords are usually found before the mid-game, though they are quite uncommon. Like other ratlings, they can sometimes be found in the High Mountain Village, hostile or not. Vaults of ratlings, which can be found in areas of moderate danger level, will contain one or more warlords.
