For years, the Broken Skull clan sat and waited and plotted, trusting that their lord and master Innoruuk would provide them an opportunity to reclaim the race of trolls for their own and to snatch control back from the hated Grobb clan.  That opportunity came when the God of Justice, Mithaniel Marr, empowered the froglok race with strength and set them loose upon the city of Grobb.  And with the fall of the troll city, Clan Broken Skull was there to pick up the fallen pieces.
Deep beneath the surface of Broken Skull Rock lie the Torgiran Mines, a harsh environment of slavery and toil as prisoners of the Broken Skull Clan mine ore for the pirate ships and weaponry.  And overseeing them all is the mighty troll pirate Ngrub, a rutheless and hate-filled individual with his only loves being of battle, conquest, and death; the loss of his hand and eye to a giant shark has only inspired him to invent new ways of making life difficult for the slaves that suffer under his reign as well as those trolls that serve beneath him.
