House Wolfheart is made up from the descendants of orcish mercenaries (the Wolf Hearts) who supported House U'Morael during the Suloise diaspora. Today they continue to serve as house guards and many have become famous as house champions. Their house colors are red and white.[1]

Unlike half-orcs common in the Flanaess, those in House Wolfheart display more orcish features than human (their heritage is more than half orcish)—greenish skin, taller, more tusk-like teeth, and are more muscular.[2]

They followed their patron house and declared for Strong Harts in 596 CY and support Lord Ellis Lorinar as Regent after Duke Karll's disappearance in 595 CY.[3]
