Biter (originally Orc Biter) is a large, two-handed dwarven axe. It was created many years ago by skilled dwarven runesmiths to combat magical protection spells being used by orc shamans of the time. At some point it was lose in battle to a force of orcs.

Eventually it ended up in the hands of Hath Charosh's romantic rival. During the Great Rites Hath picked a fight with the Orc and came out on top. Unfortunately the woman whose eye Hath had been attempting to catch ended up looking after his rival through the winter and bearing him two children. Fortunately, Hath took his very nice axe

Description


The axe head has intricate carvings and runes that will occasionally glow green. It is two-handed to a dwarf, but Hath will use it with one hand if he has a shield. It is assumed that the actual handle has been changed several times over the years. It currently has a slight curve and leather wrappings.

Effect


For a long time Hath assumed the axe merely glowed and did not require sharpening. By sheer luck he found what it was capable of in trying to defend himself from a magical assassin. The blade is capable of shattering magical constructs. It bites into magical barriers and is capable of destroying them with a single blow, it can eat weapons formed entirely of magic or extinguish the flames of a magical sword that can light itself on fire.

Beyond that very specific use it is a well balanced, sharp axe.
