Fyreslayers – Grimhold Exile
4" 6 5+ 2 To be a Grimhold Exile is to become an orphan of war, the last survivor of a magmahold that has fallen to ruin. Whilst many Fyreslayers would break upon the advent of such tragedy, these Exiles are souls of a rarer breed: duardin whose resolve cannot be broken no matter the unthinkable grief they have suffered. They are not deathseekers, but agents of retribution, determined to ensure the legacy of their people survives.
When battle is joined, Grimhold Exiles transform into roaring agents of vengeance, with each blow from their hammers carrying Grimnir’s own blazing wrath. An Exile’s hammers are imbued with a portion of the Zharrkhul – the legendary Master Flame, ignited during the ancestor-god’s violent demise, that burns at the heart of each magmahold. Along with the ur-gold runes they stamp into their bodies, the Master Flame is the closest connection Grimnir’s cult have to their fallen deity. Some Grimhold Exiles seek to one day found a new magmahold, using the fragment of the Zharrkhul they carry to light the forge temple at such a stronghold’s heart. All Grimhold Exiles swiftly grow into formidable warriors – their ur-gold runes seem to blaze all the brighter, as if the deepest reserves of power locked within are coaxed out by the glow of the Master Flame. | ||
