The Skullsplitter tribe (or clan) are a tribe of jungle trolls led by Ana'thek the Cruel located at Stranglethorn Vale. The Skullsplitters inhabit the ruins of Zul'Mamwe.

Background

The Skullsplitter tribe split off from the Gurubashi Empire after the defeat of Hakkar the Soulflayer. The various tribes claimed territories in the vast jungles of Stranglethorn Vale and quickly began fighting one another. To this day the Skullsplitters fight off all interlopers, including the nearby Bloodscalp tribe, in order to hold onto the land they have taken. Skullsplitters have nothing but contempt for the Darkspear tribe, which is the only tribe of jungle trolls to have joined the Horde. Mogh the Dead the witchdoctor of the Skullsplitter tribe mind controlled several humans from Kurzen's Expedition and kept them by his side in the Ruins of Zul'Mamwe.

When Hakkar is returned in Zul'Gurub, they tried to treat with the city by sending an ambassador.

Skullsplitter Speakers can be found in Zuldazar on Zandalar. Following the death of Rastakhan, Skullsplitter Mourners attended his funeral.

In the RPG

This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.

These trolls are solitary and deal mostly with outsiders when they are visiting the Arena. They seem dedicated to shorting up the old ruins and building structures to fit their growing population.

Notes

• Every Skullsplitter troll has dark blue hair, contrasting with the Bloodscalps, who all have bright red hair.
• However, unlike the Bloodscalps, whose hair color is associated with their tribe name (Bloodscalp, scalp is the top of the head, blood-red hair), the Skullsplitters have no similar association with their name.
• The Skullsplitter tribe got stronger mojo compared to the Bloodscalp tribe
