History[]
On Noxdorma, the Frostclaw Paladins were part of the Frostclaw Clan alongside fellow Ursine like Knight Irene, Knight Primus Adelbern and the Ordo Borealis. They protected their arctic region from the assaults of the neighboring Gnarlfur Clan with overwhelming displays of power. When their defenses were finally broken, they were summoned by the Valkyrie Jandar to Valhalla.[1]
They represented Jandar at a peace summit in central Aunstrom alongside Knight Irene.[2] When the summit collapsed due to pirate interference, the Frostclaws' commander Knight Irene did not believe that Revna's forces had caused the chaos, and she sought to defend Revna's emissaries Raakchott and Misaerx from pursuit by Utgar's forces. Together they did this successfully at Heshva Basin in Anund, and Raakchott and Misaerx would join them to pursue a mind-shackled Raelin and Loviatäk for a showdown at Howling Pass in Upper Bleakwoode.[3][4][5]
Additional Info[]
The Frostclaw Paladins were among the figures originally designed by a group of community members deemed the War Council for the Age of Annihilation Vanguard Edition crowdfund. This material was later adapted and set for retail release by Renegade Game Studios.
In the Age of Annihilation Paint Set, the color Plate Mail Metal is likely a reference to the Frostclaw's armor.[6]
