ABILITIES
Skilled Summoner: Thryx is a master at manipulating arcane manifestations.
In the first battle round, after the players have received their starting command points but before the start of the first turn, the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown can automatically cast a spell they know that summons a Disciples of Tzeentch endless spell (do not make a casting roll). That spell cannot be unbound, and that endless spell cannot be dispelled in the first battle round. Set up the endless spell as described in its Summoning rules.

That spell cannot be unbound, and that endless spell cannot be dispelled in the first battle round. Set up the endless spell as described in its Summoning rules.
Once per turn, at the end of a phase in which a Horror model in this regiment of renown was slain while its unit was wholly within 12" of the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown, you can pick 1 endless spell on the battlefield that was summoned by that MAGISTER and remove that endless spell from play. If you do so, that MAGISTER can immediately automatically cast a spell they know that summons a Disciples of Tzeentch endless spell that is different to the one removed from play (do not make a casting roll). That spell cannot be unbound. Set up the endless spell as described in its Summoning rules. Depending on the type of endless spell you set up, you can immediately do one of the following:
- Burning Sigil of Tzeentch: Resolve the effect of the Radiant Transmogrification ability as if it were the end of the movement phase.
- Tome of Eyes: Attempt to cast The Parchment Curse with the MAGISTER in this regiment of renown as if it were your hero phase.
- Daemonic Simulacrum: Resolve the effect of the Snapping Jaws ability as if the endless spell had just moved.
19.1 Casting Spells
In your hero phase, you can attempt to cast spells with friendly WIZARDS. You cannot attempt to cast the same spell more than once in the same hero phase, even with a different WIZARD. In order to attempt to cast a spell, pick a friendly WIZARD, say which of the spells that they know will be attempted, and then make a casting roll by rolling 2D6. If the casting roll is equal to or greater than the casting value of the spell, the spell is successfully cast.
19.1.2 Unbinding Spells
If a spell is successfully cast, your opponent can pick 1 of their WIZARDS that is within 30" of the caster to attempt to unbind the spell before its effects are applied. In order to attempt to unbind a spell, first say which WIZARD will attempt to unbind it. Then make an unbinding roll by rolling 2D6. If the unbinding roll is greater than the roll used to cast the spell, then the spell is unbound and its effects are not applied. The number of spells a WIZARD can attempt to unbind is noted on their warscroll. Only 1 unbinding attempt can be made for each spell.

19.3.2 Dispelling Endless Spells
At the start of the hero phase, each player can attempt to dispel 1 endless spell with each friendly WIZARD and friendly PRIEST. The player whose turn is taking place makes all of their dispelling attempts first. If a WIZARD attempts to dispel an endless spell, they can attempt to cast or unbind 1 fewer spell in that hero phase. If a PRIEST attempts to dispel an endless spell, they can chant 1 fewer prayer in that hero phase. The same player cannot attempt to dispel the same endless spell more than once per phase.To attempt to dispel an endless spell, pick 1 endless spell that is within 30" of a friendly WIZARD or friendly PRIEST and that is visible to them. Then make a dispelling roll by rolling 2D6. If the roll is greater than the casting value of that endless spell, it is dispelled and removed from play. An endless spell cannot be summoned again in the turn that it is removed from play.
