Notes[edit]

  • Its unique drop, Belisaro's Bolt, is named after Belisaro, the Imperial that named the wamasu. "Ganakton" was a moniker for an aunt that he hated, who was rumored to possess Orcish blood. Ganakton terrorized the Imperials while they were constructing Arx Corinium, having razed the eastern wall a dozen times.
