Wulfgar looms like an ancient ice-carved sentinel, his gnarled frame narrow yet unbreakable as twisted roots. Black eyes crinkle in his angular raptor face, braided beard framing a stern wisdom earned in frostbitten wars. His presence steadies the chaos, a low rumble of loyalty in every measured step.

Wulfgar the Whitetooth debuts in Iron Gold as the Republic’s ArchWarden, an Obsidian whose flowing white hair and sky-blue cape mark him as both a symbol of the new order and a living reminder of the Obsidian people’s hard-won place within it. Once a steadfast supporter of Darrow, he is tasked with arresting his old comrade when the Republic turns against the Reaper; their final duel ends with Wulfgar slain by Darrow’s blade through mouth and skull, transforming the loyal warden into a tragic casualty of the Republic’s fracturing ideals.
Description
An early-forties Obsidian man with a gnarled narrow build like a tree root, his pale blue pulseArmor hugging an armored frame. Angular raptor face peers from under flowing white hair over shoulders, black eyes crinkling above a braided beard. He wears a sky-blue cape with gravBoots, moving with stern guidance—hand extended or easing forward—his presence both illuminating and imposing under blue lamps. Wulfgar is a narrow, gnarled man in his early forties, with an angular face compared to a raptor’s and black eyes that crinkle at the corners. His beard is braided, and his pale blue armor covers him from head to toe. The combination of sharp features and composed posture gives him a formidable, watchful presence, softened by the rare warmth in his eyes.
