Background

When Skogr was still young, Iver wandered into the town’s center, startling the settlers from Rundwall who had rarely seen a varl before. He’s never said why he left varl lands to help men build a small town, but each chieftain in Skogr’s family line is happy to have him. He’s known Rook since the man was young, and the two formed a fast kinship.

Batteringram icon

Active Ability: Battering Ram

The Strongarm smashes into an enemy or ally, knocking them back up to 4 spaces, and pushing them through anyone in the way. Battering Ram does armor damage based on rank and adds 1 more armor damage to the target for each unit they pass through.

The ability can be used on both friend or foe, making it versatile in many situations by changing a unit's position on the board. Ramming a Shieldbanger does not trigger the Return the Favor.

Rank 1: knock back and do 1 armor damage

Rank 2: knock back and do 3 armor damage

Rank 3: knock back and do 5 armor damage


Returnthefavor icon

Passive Ability: Return the Favor

A character who attacks a Shieldbanger loses 1 point of armor for each strike he makes.

Return the Favor triggers every time the Shieldbanger takes strength or armor damage from an adjacent enemy, which can make it devastating to hit him with attacks that strike multiple times. Ranged attacks do not Return the Favor.
