Lauka Vai is a named character that is a single model. She is armed with an Askurga Rapier, Gore-drenched Talons and Impaling Tail.
If this model is included in a Soulblight Gravelords army with the
AVENGORII DYNASTY lineage keyword, this model is treated as a general in addition to the model that is chosen to be the army general.
Champion of the Avengorii: Lauka Vai’s masterful martial prowess and monstrous beast-form render her an unholy terror upon the battlefield.
After this model makes a
charge move, you can pick 1 enemy unit within 1" of this model and roll a number of dice equal to the charge roll for that charge move. For each 5+, that enemy unit suffers 1
mortal wound.
Nightmare’s Miasma: The strange curse of the Vengorians sees shining blades and hallowed relics rust and soften in their presence.
While an enemy unit is within 3" of any friendly models with this ability, worsen the Rend characteristic of that unit’s
melee weapons by 1 (to a minimum of ‘-’).
Undeniable Impulse: Lauka Vai fights a constant internal battle to control her bestial nature. It is not a battle she always wins.
At the start of your
hero phase, roll a dice for this model. If the roll is equal to or less than the number of the current battle round, until your next hero phase, this model can
run and still
charge later in the same turn. However, this model cannot use
command abilities until your next hero phase.
The Hunger: Soulblight creatures crave the taste of blood and are empowered when they drink deep from the veins of defeated foes.
At the end of the
combat phase, if any enemy models were slain by wounds inflicted by this model’s attacks in that phase, you can
heal up to D3 wounds allocated to this model.
Lauka Vai is a
WIZARD. She can attempt to
cast 1 spell in your
hero phase and attempt to
unbind 1 spell in the enemy hero phase. She knows the
Arcane Bolt,
Mystic Shield and
Death’s Downpour spells.
Death’s Downpour: Lauka draws upon the corrupt ending-magic running through her veins before lifting her blade skyward, summoning a deluge of slippery gore to wrong-foot her adversaries.
Death’s Downpour has a
casting value of 8. If successfully cast,
charge rolls made for enemy units within 12" of this model are halved until your next
hero phase.
A Queen Amongst Monsters: The Mother of Nightmares is followed by a menagerie of twisted vampires and monstrous undead beasts, all of whom seem empowered by her very presence.
This model can
issue this command at the start of your
hero phase. If it does so, pick 1 enemy unit that is visible to this model. Until your next hero phase, add 1 to
hit rolls for attacks made with
melee weapons by friendly
SOULBLIGHT GRAVELORDS MONSTERS that target that enemy unit.
