Disciples of Tzeentch – Tzaangor Skyfires
14" 4 4+ 1 Skyfires are bestial agents of Tzeentch, charged with ensuring that his intricate schemes continue without impediment. It is their gift to glimpse potential futures and their curse that they can never speak of them. In contrast to their trilling kin, Skyfires are utterly silent, their eyes blazing with tortured frustration at their inability to voice their half-glimpsed potentials.
Those who observe a Skyfire may find themselves perplexed, for the creature appears to shoot their arrows on seemingly aimless trajectories. Yet with unsettling inevitably, their targets find themselves in the projectile’s path, losing their footing or becoming distracted at a critical moment. All this has been foreseen by the Skyfire; they have accounted for as many possible futures as their fractured mind can handle, removing impediments to their arrows striking.
Skyfires excel as assassins, pursuing those who would hinder Tzeentch’s designs. The Discs of Tzeentch they ride upon help them to keep pace with their prey. Attempting to wield a bow while riding one of these swift daemon-forms would normally be a futile endeavour, but the Skyfires’ foresight allows them to maintain a degree of accuracy and keep one step ahead of those marked for death. | ||
