Fyreslayers – The Chosen Axes
4" 3 5+ 1 The deeds of Fjul-Grimnir are spoken of by generations of Vostarg warriors. For them, he is the epitome of that which the Sons of Grimnir should aspire to, a fearless warrior who has sacrificed his body and soul in pursuit of honour and ur-gold. The Chosen Axes are the hand-picked champions of the mighty Runefather Fjul-Grimnir. Bellowing oaths and trailing sparks, these dauntless warriors launch themselves into battle alongside their beloved leader, smashing aside all in their path. | ||
