Weapon (maul), artifact (requires attunement by a creature of good or neutral alignment)
The Hammer of Torrak was forged by the dwarven god of war. While its creation method is unknown, the Hammer holds immense power able to make an entire army invincible. It was forged long ago when war threatened to destroy the dwarven capital of Myntrogh and since has been used by the dwarven king to protect his kingdom. It is said, though, that the wielder must have the true heart of a dwarf or the hammer will not glow with Torrak's blessing.

Destroying the Hammer of Torrak. The Hammer of Torrak can only be destroyed by dropping it into the lava inside of the Great Forge in Myntrogh. Even then, it is not instantly destroyed. It must remain within the lava for a period of 100 days, after which the magic of the Forge weakens its magic enough to destroy it.
