Brakka's Axe Ruina

Ruina is the massive double-bitted axe carried by Brakka in The Ballad of the First Party.

It was not made for elegant dueling, ceremony, or knightly display. Forged from dense dark iron and scarred by repeated impact, Ruina is an instrument of absolute kinetic devastation. Its head bears the marks of shattered shields, splintered fortifications, broken armor, and enemies who learned too late what it meant to stand in Brakka’s path.

In battle, when Elara holds the line with Eventide, Brakka brings Ruina forward to dismantle whatever stands before the party. The axe earned its name because wherever Brakka swings it, only ruin remains.
