Rune Axe of Grimnir

Wielded during the times of Teraptus by a number of Dwarven Lords, this rune-enchanted axe, thought to've been forged in the primal fire's of Kermoria's center by the ancient Dwarven God Moradin, is now in the hands of Viscount Grombrindal.

Significance

As one of the only Dwarven weapons still surviving from the pre-draconic age, it carries significant cultural weight amongst their peoples; the runes inscribed on it's surface are ancient and powerful, and remain some of the only surviving representations of the ancient art of runeforging, lost when several master runesmiths died during the Lyras War.

The haft of the runeaxe is a solid, contiguous length of Ironwood, and it's head forged of a single, weighted ingot of Gromril.  A number of runes are delicately carved into the surface of both, warding it, and it's wielder, from a number of calamities, including acid, fire, and deadly sprays of poison.
