📜 Lore Hook

Vharka Skullrend was forged in the frostbitten wastes of the Ironhowl Expanse, where survival meant strength and mercy was weakness. Her axe, “Gravetide,” is said to drink the fury of fallen warriors, and her shield bears the scars of a hundred battles. She now roams the wilds seeking worthy foes, ancient relics, and a prophecy whispered in blood: “The storm shall kneel before the skull queen.”
