Staff of the Horned Rat: Thanquol can draw on the magical energy stored in his staff to enhance the spells that he casts. Once, he viewed this as the blessings of the Horned One made manifest; now, he sees it simply as cunningly acquired power.

Warpfire Braziers: These enormous, fumebelching wrecking balls allow Boneripper to crush the largest foes with ease.

Warpfire Projectors: These horrific weapons cause the target to be engulfed in searing gouts of warpfire.
Do not use the attack sequence for an attack made with Warpfire Projectors. Instead, roll x dice for each model in the target unit that is within range, where x is equal to the number of Warpfire Projectors with which this unit is armed. For each 4+, the target suffers 1 mortal wound.

Warpstone Addiction: Thanquol is addicted to warpstone and can consume it in quantities that would kill any other Grey Seer. This serves to supercharge his magics, though not without eroding his sanity and ravaging his scrawny frame.
Once per turn, in your hero phase, when this unit attempts to cast a spell, you can say that it will first consume a warpstone token. If you do so, roll 3D6. This roll cannot be re-rolled or modified.
If the 3D6 roll is 13, the spell is successfully cast and cannot be unbound; however, after the effects of the spell have been resolved, this unit suffers D6 mortal wounds.
If the 3D6 roll was not 13, remove 1 dice of your choice and use the remaining 2D6 as the casting roll.

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.
