Editing Orcsplitter

'''''Orcsplitter''''' was the greataxe of King [[Torvald Flameforge]]. Though unremarkable in appearance, its head is graven with the dwarven rune for "orc" with a slash through the markings; literally, the word "orc" split in two. Its enchantments make it particularly lethal when wielded against orcs, and it grants its wielder and their companions a magical resistance against fear. ''Orcsplitter'' possesses limited sentience; it desires to be wielded by a courageous, preferably dwarven, warrior in battle, preferably against orcs, and is imbued with the purpose of defending dwarves. Though it does not directly speak with its wielder, it can convey a sense of its emotions or, on rare occasions, telepathically recite ancient dwarven poetry or song.

After the king was slain, ''Orcsplitter'' was buried with him. In [[Calendar#Year 2965|2965]], the group that would become known as [[Kazak's Follies]] discovered the king's tomb and took both his bones and his axe for safekeeping. The dwarven gladiator [[Kazak Axehaft]] would wield ''Orcsplitter'' as they battled the elemental cults of the [[Cult of the Black Earth|Black Earth]] and the [[Cult of the Crushing Wave|Crushing Wave]], and used it to slay High Prophet [[Marlos Urnrayle]]. Once the elemental threat had been ended, Kazak delivered ''Orcsplitter'' to the dwarves of [[Korthaz]] for reinternment alongside the remains of the king. The dwarves gave him the moniker of "Kazak Kingbearer" for his deeds.
