Troops
Immortals
Serried Ranks
In their life, the Immortals conquered the world, acquiring their name due to the fact that they were nearly impossible to kill, forming brutal shield walls that were near impenetrable. It was common for battles to end without a single death in their ranks, even though their regiments charged straight into the front lines of combat.
Now, their name has taken a different meaning, as they have risen from the dust, an unstoppable and unkillable army that threatens the world once again.
Venators
Calcified Crossbowmen
Songs and tales often embellish the glory of combat, recountingthe deaths of many thousands of men under the crushing advance of an enemy. Yet these dramatizations are far from the truth. In reality, battle is tedious attrition. Front line troops may spend the day battering their weapons upon the shields and armor of their foes, giving, and taking a few meters of ground from sunrise to sunset. In these protracted exchanges, few deaths result.
Harvesters
Fallen Priesthood
Harvesters were once battle priestesses of the Church of Azerai. Striding into combat along with the Emperor’s army, they once called divine wrath and flame upon the enemy. Now, they are twisted, changed, and mutated, imbued by the powers of the Ashen Wastes and able to control and shift the energy.
They channel this new power to manipulate bone, assisting the great Ossificators in shaping new soldiers, and using their great war-scythes to harvest the souls of their foes.
Malformed Constructs
Misbegotten Creations
The Ossificators are architects of creation, channeling the magics of the Ashen Wastes into their work to meld and shape the many weapons, armors, and constructs of the Eternal Legions. However, occasionally, these energies are too chaotic for even the Ossificators to control. From arcane mishaps arise bizarre and imperfect constructs, malformed, contorted, grotesque things with too many or too few limbs. Shambling about like deformed infants, these misshapen constructs can barely be considered to have form at all.
