Garmr and Gormr

Garmr and Gormr are the twin heirloom Daemon-Axes of the Skaeling clan of Strovengaard. They are holy artifacts of the Skaelings, and have been wielded by the High Jarls of Strovengaard since times immemorial, passed on through the ages from father to son. The massive battle-axes are named in honour of the two bloodthirsty daemonic wolves said to accompany the Blood God Khorne on his hunts across the heavens. Heavy with infernal magicks, and bearing the trapped, ravenous souls of Greater Daemons, the twin blades are weapons of truly fearsome power. The axe-blades themselves are forged in the likeliness of howling wolves, reflecting the daemonic creatures in whose glory they are forged. Twin stones the colour of blood are inlaid into the hafts of the axes, which flare to life with crimson fire when the axes drink of the blood of their enemies.

The current wielder of the axes is the Chaos Lord, High Jarl Egil Styrbjorn, current chieftain of Strovengaard, who attained his title and the blades by defeating their previous owner, his own father, in single combat for leadership. They have by far wrought the most destruction in Egil's hands, and ended the lives of tens of thousands; including countless noble knights of the kingdom of Bretonnia. Not the least of which was the legendary Grail Knight Reolus, who was slain by the High Jarl in single combat, the twin axes of the Skaelings cleaving his head from his shoulders.
