Blades of Khorne – Aspiring Deathbringer

Aspiring Deathbringers rise from a warhorde’s most promising and deadly killers. They have performed such deeds as to earn a place amongst their master’s Gorechosen, yet they have not excelled enough to count amongst the inner circle. Favour and prestige are everything to these warriors, and their life is a constant struggle to garner both in abundance. An Aspiring Deathbringer marches at the forefront of the Bloodbound advance, followed by baying packs of warriors who have thrown in their lot with these rising champions. No fear or doubt drags at their steps; offering their lives in Khorne’s service is a thousand times preferable to ignominy. An Aspiring Deathbringer’s every waking thought is consumed by the need to advance along the crimson path. They have given themselves to Khorne body and soul, and there can be no turning back; glory, oblivion or mutation into something less than human are their only remaining fates. Canny lords of Khorne sharpen this mania by carefully balancing slights against the Deathbringer’s pride with opportunities to earn renown. There are few foes more ferocious, after all, than an Aspiring Deathbringer who sees a chance to ascend another rung of the blood-stained ladder of glory.
