It seems that once the Grindarks were like any other hill tribe, if poorer than most. Then the Builders came. They offered the Grindarks rewards and secret knowledge if they would work for them.
a historian, Dark of the Moon,
"Chapter 8: Interlude with Jewel-Jaws"

The Grindarks are tribesmen of central Rathillien. Their stronghold is Wyrden.

History[]

They were the workforce of the Builders, and constructed the Kencyr temples on Rathillien under their direction.

Culture[]

Grindark tradition holds that the root of one's manhood lies in his braids.[2]
