With permission by Karonto

You see Chuno Blackheart, a Gor'Tog.
He is muscular and gargantuan, towering over even the tallest Gor'Togs, with weathered skin the color of grass-stained denim. His ever wickedly-smirking generous mouth is accented by sharply pointed ears, clear emerald eyes, and a once-hooked nose that has been mangled beyond repair from a lifetime devoted to battle. He has a few jagged and thick scars that run parallel from the top of his scalp, down the left side of his face marring his ear, and ending just above the shoulder.
He appears to be in the twilight of his life when not engaged in combat.
He has a crimson and black tattoo of a centaur clad in full plate brandishing a head freed from its body across the width of his back, which is now faded and slightly sagging.
Permanently blackened flesh creates the brand of a giant scorpion down his left arm. Its tail, slightly curled, rests on the back of his hand, while one huge claw appears to be crushing a small robed figure within its vice-like grasp.

He is wearing an open-faced damite sallet accented in dark copper along the edges and topped with massive horns, an undulating senci spear with with a bloodwood haft wrapped in warcat hide, some goblin skin vambraces tooled with images of mighty beasts, a korograth hide war belt lined with stark-white hiro bear fur, an orc-hide loincloth with wide strips of hanging leather intricately tooled with scorpions, and some worn-out tall goblin skin boots armored with articulated carapace plates.

Alterations

a heavily-girdled warrior's loincloth intricately tooled with scorpions
Glossy shards of chitinous carapace reinforce the high-waisted belt and interlock to form a secure clasp. Tooled into the leather, scorpions face off against each other in a menacing display of arachnoid grace.

a massive greataxe with a bearded silversteel blade
The single curved blade of this axe is deeply engraved with a stylized depiction of the side-profile of a looming Gor'Tog warrior in a visored helm. It is set atop a diamondwood haft the size of a fencepost wound with braided strips of storm bull leather.

a scorched haralun cutlass with an intricately etched blade
Along the expanse of darkened metal, a battle scene plays out. A lone Elothean Warrior Mage stands before a vast army, shielded by a ring of stones and picking them off with flames that rain down from a cloud that swirls above his head. Just behind the mage, a wolf stands, gazing at the piles of enemy corpses with an almost amused expression.

a haralun sterak axe with an elegantly curved blade and a wyvern-skin grip
Razor sharp, the blade of this weapon is etched with an image of the city of Shard that reveals intricate detailing as light plays across it. Despite the brutal nature of the weapon, there is a grace to the curve of metal that lends it elegance. Fine wyvern leather along the handle assures a proper grip. Burned into the wood below the blade is the phrase "Skoch Grimis!"

Rare or One of a Kind

a close-wrapped fighting shirt fastened with maggot white punka straps
A grinning skull is embroidered on each elbow.

a korograth hide war belt studded with jagged wyvern bone shards
Discolored to a sickly shade of pale yellow, the macabre embellishments jut out wildly in a haphazard arrangement that runs the length of the belt. The naturally durable hide is crafted in thick layers and dyed in marbled shades of ashen grey and blood red, as if it were freshly skinned from the beast for immediate wear.

Mage thrashed and torn
Winter snow soaked crimson with blood
Rage burning eyes
