Look at Axe’s gloves. Notice how the middle “finger” is thicker than the others? That’s because it’s not a single finger. Some gloves are made such that more fingers can fit in one pocket.

Then axe have got 6 fingers? Axe’s other fingers are as thick as middle “finger”. Just check it in game

Anyways, there can be races in oglodi like in real we have asian, african american, caucasian. But still, i think warlock is a human(or half human) same goes for life stealer.

Just because of his skin color? He could be a halfling or he just a different branch of Odlogi like we human have Caucasian, Negro, Mongol.

Can you please stop taking it that seriously? That’s just a minor inconsistency between several dev team members.
They’re confirmed Oglodi folk, no matter how many fingers each of them them have.

Can’t get why people want something in the same category to be the same, 100% without any exceptions.

Weta has opened up pre-orders for absolutely magnificent, but ridiculously expensive real life replica’s of Demon Edge, Butterfly, and Vanguard. All of these come with expanded pieces of lore:

Personal pieces of note: There is a reference to the Ultimyrian Academy, which is where Warlock originates from. It also tries to explain how Vanguard can be recreated.

Personal pieces of note: Pretty much an expansion of the lore on the in-game item.

Personal pieces of note: Pretty much a reiteration of what is already known.

They also got an Axe statue, but that one just simply uses Axe’s old lore.

The detail on those is absolutely astonishing. I never noticed the runes carved into the horns of the Vanguard ram before.

But what is a hellwether? Is that the demon-ram thing on the front, or something else?

Well those are pretty boring lore pieces.

A Hellwether is a legendary beast. The name is a bastardization of “bellwether,” a term commonly used by ancient herding tribes in Slom and the Bleeding hills, and later recorded by Ultimyrian scholars. It was unclear to the Ultimyrian scribes of the time if the Hellwether Ram was mythical, or a real creature. Later events would strongly suggest the latter.
