| abstract | - Carrot Ironfoundersson is a fictional character in Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels. He is a Lance Constable in, and later becomes captain of, the Ankh-Morpork City Watch. The Discworld Companion gives this description of the character: Carrot Ironfoundersson is Captain of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch police force. Bulging with muscles, this two metre (six-foot-six-inch) dwarf (adopted) remains honest, good-natured, and honourable despite the city's best efforts. His dwarfish name is Kzad-bhat, which, roughly translated, means "Head Banger". This is because he used to work in his adopted father's mine before his career in the City Watch, and as the dwarfs thought five foot a good roofheight in the mines he often banged his head.
