Legacy of Chief Gekkdar of
Nokk

When Rallos Zek ordained the
first chief of the Spine
ogres, Dronuk Rockjaw, he gave
him the Amulet of Chieftains.
It was not fully known what
powers the amulet possessed or
what effect it had, but it was
treasured and revered as an
item of the gods.

What was known was that only
the direct bloodline of the
Rockjaws and Thoots could
touch the amulet. Any other
who dared touch it would turn
to ash. So as a chief may lay
dead on a battleground, only
the true heir to the chief
could remove the amulet and
place it around his neck to
assume leadership of the Spine



ogres.

It is said the elder shaman
wove this ward around the
Amulet of Chieftains to
prevent any false heir from
taking control of the ogres.
Whether they were aware or
not, the amulet harbored
another magic. Each chief's
soul became bound to the
amulet as soon as it was
placed around their neck. His
soul could only pass in death
as the amulet passed on to the
true heir, completing the
cycle of the chief's rule and
ensuring only the rightful
leader of the ogres possessed
the amulet.

Now, as no heir lives to take
the amulet from Gekkdar, his
soul is forever bound to



Amulet of Chieftains and his
spirit lingers between life
and death and likely will for
an eternity unless a true heir
of the Rockjaws finds the
amulet and places it around
his own neck.
