Valen Shatterhelm is a determined fighter, as tough as the magical stone armor he wears into battle. His powerful bulette mount can carry him underground, allowing him to burrow safely towards his enemies before emerging from the earth to jostle his foes. For close combat, Valen prefers to don his Claws of the Umber Hulk, which shred his opponents armor even while inflicting brutal damage upon them.

Valen is also a master at exploiting his enemies weaknesses, striking them with fierce critical blows. When surrounded by multiple foes, Valen will hurl one of his most powerful weapons at them, a magical gem that explodes in all directions, casting deadly shards that tear through his gathered enemies.
