House Warborn

We shall not bend, we shall not bow, we shall not break.

Arguably one of the strongest and most brutal of all Goliaths, House Warborn sprung from incredibly dangerous and savage warriors, who organized themselves into an even more deadly fighting force. The strength of this house is unchallenged, even by the mightiest of houses, such as House Ironborn, their rival. Goliaths of House Warborn were obsessed with violence and the spirit of fighting, and could fly into a deadly, supernatural rage when doing so. They were truly a force to be reckoned with.

House Warborn Origins

With the most violent past in the history of the Goliath people, House Warborn was literally born from blood and death. The land they laid claim to was infested with Frost Giants and other very dangerous creatures, destined to survive in the fields of unforgiving ice and snow. The tribes who called themselves "Warborn" were in a constant struggle for survival. They could not afford to be soft, as that could end their entire existence. They were always competing with giants as well as these other creatures. "Only the strongest survive" was a part of their everyday lives, and they took this dogma seriously. They were not the stupid, daft savages that some say they are; they were crafty, and learned to outsmart the low intelligent giants that roamed through their camps. The Warborn learned to set up eye level and foot level traps to immobilize these creatures, and create the perfect opportunity to defeat their enemies. And when it came to killing, they were deadly efficient.

The Warborn to truly bring glory to their house was a Goliath known as Vishal Warborn. Vishal was a brutal and barbaric man, but also an incredibly determined one. He believed that his people deserved to live in fortified cities instead of constantly competing with the giants for land in the snowy wastes. He devised a grand conquest that would start in what is now known as House Warborn territory, and stretch all the way into House Ironborn territory. He aimed for cities, villages and towns that were established, but had no house to rule them. His conquest can be mirrored to that of Queen Drathos in the year 15
