You can reassemble the letters in "Morcar" to spell the word "carrom," which is (of course) the name of the red ball used in the game of billiards.

Thus explaining the little balls on top of the Chaos Warlock/Warriors' helmets!

My wife drew this years ago. For some kind of reason.

I invented a funny-sounding form of verse to use for the dialog of a particular type of person from the game I am making. It is the sophomoric-use of Old English and Middle English words, in pentameter.

It always sounds hilarious to me.

To write your own, first make a sentence in regular English.

"Axes just work better this way."

Now arrange the same statement in pentameter, which basically means five pairs of two words that form a speaking rhythm.

worry not! | this is | the way | my axe | works best

Then go to a site like this one--http://www.william-shakespeare.info/william-shakespeare-dictionary.htm or http://www.etymonline.com/index.php and replace as many of the words in that sentence with archaic English ones that have even the most minimally-similar meanings.

"Dent afears! Be-mete, hild thus, mine axe brookes beste."

Also, I realize that this is probably funny only to me.

No, it isn't.
I find it very hilarious.
Also, I like to give fantasy characters cliché-ridden idiolects and accents:

: "Baaad choith of color. The 1tht thentury called. It wantth itth bandageth back. DUH!"
: "You freakin' morons, that's not a Zombie."
: "Yea, 'tis a mummy. And it wieldeth a rridiculously colossal battle axe! Rrun for it!"
