- "Radegast is scattered. Perun is indecisive. Silimar wants to build a tower and hide. But they’re going to change the world; no one can stop them. Will it be for the better? I don’t know. But they mean to end the fighting, so I don’t have to sleep with my back to the wall every night, Light in my hand. And that’s not nothing."
- — Lord Felwinter[1]

Former Warlord |
Felwinter was a Warlock[2] and one of the Iron Lords.[3] A Warlord and master Voidwalker who gave up his power in pursuit of peace alongside the Iron Lords, he was a true believer in his companions' goal, and more merciless toward enemy Warlords than any of them.[1]
Biography
- "As I recall, you used to have a throne on that Light-forsaken peak, ‘til you joined up with the wolves. You’re the only Warlord I know who held an entire mountain."
"Felwinter Peak."
"No one ever calls it that."
"The Iron Lords do. Though they did ask me to take that throne down." - — Warlord Citan and Lord Felwinter[1]
Felwinter started out as a Warlord, like so many of the first generations of Guardians and eventually the Iron Lords came to challenge him. Seeing a chance to come to a peaceable end, and paranoid that his territory would be taken from him otherwise, he abandoned his status as a Warlord in hopes that he could stand with the Iron Lords as they changed the world.[1] Unlike the others though, Felwinter was more brutal towards his enemies, not having their willingness to show mercy, but not completely merciless. One such Warlord, a Titan by the name of Citan, learned that the hard way when Felwinter went to his domain to give him a chance to surrender peacefully and join the Lords as he had. Citan refused, and before he could get one hit in, Felwinter used the Void combined with combat training from Jolder to best him. Aware that Citan would never surrender, Felwinter used the Void one final time to break Citan's neck. While monologuing to his enemy's dead body, Felwinter expressed that despite their flaws, no one would stop the Iron Lords from creating peace in the world. Despite his desire to offer him a life with the Lords, and knowing they would consider sparing him, Felwinter knew Citan better, and refused to leave him standing. The moment his Ghost came out of hiding and revived him, Felwinter pulled out his shotgun and fired two shots, one to kill Citan a second time, the other to destroy his Ghost.
Eventually the Lords ended the reign of the Warlords and established peace in the world. Seeking to restore civilization, the now great organization of the Lords of Iron sought out SIVA, with Timur at the helm. Felwinter would occasionally travel with him in his search for leads[4]. When the search bore fruit, Felwinter was one of the many Iron Lords who went into the what would later be named the Plaguelands. When Rasputin's presence was made known, Felwinter attempted to communicate their peaceful intent to Rasputin but was rebuffed by him using all his defenses to deter the Iron Lords. Of all that went in, Felwinter was one of the eight to meet their end in the SIVA replication chamber, containing SIVA at the cost of their lives.
When Saladin sends the Guardian in to finish the job of halting the flow of SIVA, Felwinter, along with Jolder and Gheleon, had his armor and remains warped by SIVA as a defensive measure. The Guardian, using a discarded Battleaxe, destroyed the remnants and the Replication Chamber, putting the fallen Lords to a peaceful rest.
Those who seek to honor Felwinter can follow in his enigmatic footsteps with an artifact of his. Those who carry his Memory gain a drastic ability: while they lose their super ability, Guardians gain an extra melee and grenade charge, a small boost to all stats, and orbs of light regenerate melee and grenade abilities.
Trivia

- A legendary shotgun, Felwinter's Lie, is named after the signature shotgun Felwinter wielded.
