Axe Lore & Background Story
Once a general of the Red Mist army, Axe rose through the ranks by killing his own commanders and claiming their titles. His bloodlust knows no allegiance — he fights purely for the thrill of battle. His brutal reign over the Red Mist puts him at odds with Legion Commander, who seeks to restore honor to military leadership through discipline rather than savagery.
