12" 3 4+ 1 Amongst the sinister ranks of the Shadowblades gallop the Dark Riders, aelven killers mounted upon swift steeds from Ulgu’s depths. Those unfortunates marked for death by this murderous cabal are first targeted by Assassins, but those who somehow escape their pursuers do not find a much better fate waiting for them out in the wilds of the realms. Fleeing targets are run down by the Dark Riders, who stop only long enough to secure their kills before riding hard back to their masters. For those marked by the Dark Riders, there is nowhere to flee. The red-eyed shadowmares ridden by these cloaked killers are unnaturally silent on the approach in spite of their speed, allowing their masters to level spears and repeater crossbows to deal a fatal blow to their quarry.
On occasion, Dark Riders fight alongside the military forces of a city’s expedition. They terrorise enemy encampments and patrols, striking forth from unknown quarters in a succession of lightning-fast raids. Dark Riders wage a war of terror and confusion, attacking their enemy’s weakest points with merciless precision. They slaughter at will then melt back into the shadows before their foes have a chance to react. | ||
