6" 5 5+ 2 Slaughter Queens are the martial leaders of the war covens, chosen for their skilled bladework and their fanaticism for dealing death. For a Slaughter Queen, the battlefield is her temple, and the jetting blood of an opened throat is her sacred offering to almighty Khaine. They fight with a sword in each hand, weaving a pattern of red ruination. The Blade of Khaine – blessed with the furore of war – strikes with blurring speed, while the Deathsword is imbued with Morathi’s scorn, its enchanted edge slicing gaping clefts in flesh and armour with even the slightest stroke. A Slaughter Queen wears little in the way of armour, instead relying upon feints, deft dodges and flawless acrobatics to avoid enemy blows.
No Khainite can help but be inspired by the unrestrained butchery enacted by a Slaughter Queen. Where these priestesses roam, the land is soon watered with the blood of the freshly slain. Though they prefer bladework to ministry, Slaughter Queens are still adept at channelling the hot rage of Khaine into devastating battle prayers. All learn the killing words of power – appellations of Khaine that, when shouted at the correct pitch, can smite an enemy or even blunt an incoming spell. | ||
