Ironjawz – Weirdbrute Wrekkaz

Sometimes an orruk Brute gets so swept up in the anarchic thrum of the Waaagh! that they go – as their fellows put it – ‘propa wonky’. They start yelling nonsense, vomiting green bile and lashing out in an aimless frenzy. Some simply wander off into the wilds and have to be dragged back by their allies. Ironjawz are baffled by anything that cannot be solved through violence, and so they turn to their Weirdnob Shamans for a ‘finky’ solution. These apparently wise orruks possess no greater insight; they resort to hammering bone-and-iron masks deep into the skulls of the afflicted Brutes in an attempt to let out the wonkiness. Ironically enough, the sheer agony and white-hot fury caused by this process actually does fix the victim’s odd behaviour – albeit by transforming them into a maniacal killer. Known as Weirdbrute Wrekkaz, these orruks see the world around them as an inferno of green fire, the clumped masses of enemy troops shining with particular intensity. Wielding oversized flails known as chain-smashas, they throw themselves at these luminous concentrations, whirling their weapons to shatter limbs and smash skulls into blood‑spattered fragments.
