	Games - Items in the Warcraft universe

This is a list of the major items from Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft universe — a fictional universe in which a series of video games and books are set.

Demon Soul

The Demon Soul was a powerful artifact created by the mad black dragon Neltharion in his quest to cleanse Azeroth of anything that threatened it, which in his eyes was all life except for his own black dragonflight. Under the guise of creating a weapon to use against the Burning Legion, Neltharion tricked the other four dragon Aspects into placing part of their power into the Demon Soul. He then betrayed them at a critical moment in the war against the Burning Legion, almost destroying the blue dragonflight in the process. However, the remaining Aspects managed to steal the Demon Soul from him and place a powerful enchantment on it so that no dragon (including Neltharion) could ever wield it.

The Demon Soul was found centuries later by Orcs of the Dragonmaw Clan, who used it to enslave the red dragonflight and use them as war machines against the Alliance. The Human wizard Rhonin, however, managed to destroy the Demon Soul, thus restoring the dragon Aspects to their former power.

The Doomhammer

The Doomhammer is the warhammer used by the ex-warchief Orgrim Doomhammer. When Orgrim died while raiding the internment camp of Durnholde keep to free the orc prisoners there, he gave the Doomhammer and his black full-body armour to Thrall, the new warchief of the Horde.

Eye of Sargeras

The Eye of Sargeras is a powerful artifact that was once a part of Sargeras. The artifact was sought by many looking for power. One of them, the Orc warlock Gul'dan, found its location within the Tomb of Sargeras, although he was killed while trying to enter the tomb. Many years later, the Night Elf demon hunter Illidan Stormrage used the Eye in his effort to destroy the Lich King, but the interruption of the spell by his brother Malfurion caused the spell to fail, as well as destroy the Eye.

Frostmourne

A powerful runeblade, Arthas sought Frostmourne in the hope that its vast power would allow him to rid Lordaeron of the Scourge and save his people. Unknownst to him, however, Frostmourne was in fact a cursed blade created by the Lich King. The sword granted Arthas immense power, but it also channeled the Lich King's powers through him, which turned him into the Lich King's puppet and the Scourge's greatest Death Knight.

The pedestal in Northrend that housed Frostmourne was guarded by Ice Revenants who attempted to stop Arthas from gaining the blade - when Arthas taunted them about trying to protect Frostmourne from him, their leader rebuked that they were actually attempting to protect Arthas from the blade itself. On the pedestal, an inscription warned adventurers thusly:

"Whomsoever takes up this blade shall wield power eternal. Just as the blade rends flesh, so must power scar the spirit."

Prominent victims of Frostmourne include Muradin Bronzebeard, Mal'Ganis the Dreadlord, King Terenas Menethil, Uther Lightbringer, Antonidas of Dalaran, Sylvanas Windrunner, and Illidan Stormrage (who is the only character who has been critically wounded by Frostmourne and lived).
