The Highland Games!

Last night Clan Stormheart hosted one of their most favoured festivities; The Highland Games! An evening full of Wildhammer-esque activities, flourishing ‘friendly rivalries’ and laughter had by all! As always, the teams where the three unique clans of Khaz Modan, but with our gnomish cousins this time as well!

The Games:

Barrel Riding!
As dangerous as it sounds! In days of old each Dwarf would’ve finished off their -own- full keg first and foremost. Upon doing so granted right to participate! However, the youth of today aren’t as hardy - haha! Each contestant to participate will await at the top of the chosen hill, slope (or mountain). Upon the word “Go!” they’ll all mount their barrels and race to the bottom. Well, that’s the idea anyway…

Tug o’ War!
That’s right, we’re to work as a team in this one! Show off your prowess alongside your kin and hold fast - stoic and un-moving to your opponents struggle! Grasp hold of the large double-knotted rope, align the centre with a marker stone. Upon the word “Go!” you’ll pull like you’re trying to steal a wagon of ale!

Boulder Throwing!
A game that’ll surely test both your arm and your might! It doesn’t take a genius to work out the basics, nor take too long to understand. Perhaps, however a fair while to master; though we Wildhammer aren’t usually keen on too much technique!

Spittin’!
A crude tavern game invented by Thane Grahda Stormheart. It entails two contestants to go at it with their gutter-trash talk in the hopes of being the -quickest- and most creative in insulting the other. The winner is often decided by the crowd, whoever emerges victor gets bought a drink, or whatever the wager may have been.

Upon each victory for each team they’d earn themselves points! Nobody more than Thane Stormheart could comprehend the fortitude and strength of the gnomish team in particular that night, who dominated both the Boulder Throwing and Tug o’ War!.

In the end, the marked up scores resulted in:

First Place: Bronzebeard AND Gnome!

Second Place: The Dark Iron!

Third Place: The Wildhammers!

A massive thank you goes out to The Three Hammers, Assemblage of Uld, The Arclight Association and all who participated as singulars or came to spectate! I’ll definitely be hosting this again in the future!

My guild met these guys about a month ago. We joined them for an event which was a lot of fun. All interactions have been either interesting or hilarious! If you like playing a wildhammer dwarf, this is a good place to go. ^^

Welcoming Newcomers!

Upon the recent Shadowlands updates and news regarding customisations, i’m sure we’re not the only ones ecstatic for the new Wildhammer tattoos coming this year!

So I’d like to put up a small message now, regarding those pondering on the idea of perhaps creating their very own Wildhammer to RP with in the coming months, experienced or otherwise!

To all those interested, you’re most welcome to come and find RP with us at Clan Stormheart, to end up joining or not we’re wholly excited to (hopefully) see a great influx in Wildhammer RP’ers. And perhaps see the growth in settlements outside of the major cities!

So, be you Aerie Peak or Highlands a thunderous call goes out to YOU!

Thunderstrike Mountain - The Burial of Gryphon

Yesterday, Clan Stormheart gathered atop the solitary peak of their ancient burial ground. In ceremony of remembrance and tribute of a fallen warrior and brother, Astraios.

Thunderstrike Mountain, she’s a blessed pinnacle o’ what we Wildhammer believe closest tae our ancestors… I’ve found myself stood atop this beautiful peak many-a-time in my life, tae remember and celebrate those o’ Highland that’ve given and lived their lives. In protection, nourishment and legacy o’ what we all consider -home-.

Astraios as we know, was slain in battle, in a far-away land to a great evil not many o’ us could scarcely imagine. He didn’t die defending his own home, but that o’ someone else. I stand ‘ere proud as any father would be, content and full wit’ belief he’s earned pride n’ place amongst those that’ve fallen before him.

https://imgur.com/jjZ23U3

Though he’s left no legacy intae form o’ hatchlings, he’ll live forever in his final act of defence and preservation fer our Hulfgran. Fer us to witness all the great deeds he has and is yet ta accomplish.

Ride hard intae the hereafter, Astraios – winds take yer home.

Tribute from Thane Grahda Stormheart

The proceedings continued with the voice of the Elder Shaman Galvrin Stormheart. Admits the downpour and a blustering westernly gale, all from the gathered took time to say peace for the fallen companion.

And then was the time for the planting of stone and offering, Hulfgran Stonefist would begin with the departure of his medal, given from the same campaign that claimed his brother’s life. Alongside his old strapping and riding attire, nestled next to his silk-wrapped body. Once the offering is placed, each present would plant a large stone atop the beast. One by one, feathers, flowers and trinkets would be offered nearby or within - alongside a rock firmly built up to form the marked resting place.

Astraios finally laid to rest, the formal ceremony would come to a conclusion and the family departs back to Kirthaven. For the ‘continued’ tribute, they’d be breaking out only the sweetest nectar. Ale and mead all round, whilst relishing in tales and stories of times gone by.

As Clan Stormheart rebuilds after the destruction of their seaside home in the Highlands, Kirthaven has turned into the one true dwelling for these stout Dwarves and their families. With the blessing of Lachlan MacGraff, who has ever been the village’s warden and a spiritual leader, Thane Grahda leads his folk on to protect what is dear. Be it people near to hearth or continents far from home: Clan Stormheart will etch its place in the annals of history as the clan that stood against the tide, the clan that would not die…

The Clan that would never waver.

I want to congratulate our latest Modoss (marked), they who have provem themselves worthy of the sacred Paw of Garhl!


Thane Grahda Stormheart, son of Olgan, son of Bal’Gahn, has seen fit to mark the following intrepid Dwarves; formally gathering them under the wings of Clan Stormheart:

  • Dwumlir Forlornstone
  • Mairede Anvilmight
  • Dilidin Stormtalon
  • Frakkas Thunderhammer

Each of these fine specimens will soon be called before their Thane once again to complete the first Trial of Garhl, and seek to receive their first claw.

“Och, I’ve nae seen the likes of it.” Such was the word of Galvrin Stormheart as he looked upon a square overrun with humans from the North. They sought temporary refuge from combat against their own kin, and as such were granted the hospitality of Kirthaven for as long as it wouldn’t endanger the Dwarves within. Indeed, they remained for several days under the watchful eyes of Wildhammer’s finest folk- then streamed out and onward to their next location of choice.
Clan Stormheart and indeed all of Kirthaven breathed a sigh of relief, for no good could’ve come from combat in the Jewel of the Highlands.

With danger past, the Clan focussed days to come.

With another week coming to a close, Clan Stormheart is planning to attend the Festival of Beltane on April 30th and May 1st!


The Clan will remain in Kirthaven until Thursday comes, dealing with what needs done before the festival; such is the decree of its elders.

Come on by, there’s brew a-plenty!

Clan Stormheart has been most busy over the past few days, our flock has had dealings with a new pocket of mongrel Dragonmaw. Much like starved vermin they cling to life, encroaching from the southern banks of the Verrall. Picking away at the flesh of settlements we Wildhammers are trying to rebuild to the north. Only now to have taken two of our own brothers captive… Their fate yet unknown, Galvrin Stormheart and Lag’han Firebeard are now in the flaming grasp of the fanatical Skorpah Drake-Eater and his deranged brood.

Now only just starting to recover from the skirmish, all will be gathering to hold council, both Clan Firebeard and Clan Thundermar alike. For this will need the joint strength of each family assembled, the darkened forests of the southern low-lands harbour a darkness that has not yet revealed itself.

Though hope remains even now within Kirthaven, as Thane Stormheart, despite the recent tragedies, continues to enlighten his kin with the teachings of his families ancient codex; The Ghal’bram. Trials are still ongoing for each willing Dwarf seeking to earn their place amongst the family.

One such mention would be Hulfgran Stonefist, mighty warrior of the Highlands and last known member of his family. Who just last night completed the trial of strength, Misfaran’dahl.

Should you be of Wildhammer, the Highlands will always seek to call you home.

Seek us out within Kirthaven and lend her your aid!

For ours be a small, but ever mighty hearth.
