Flesh-eater Courts – Scourge of Ghyran Abhorrant Gorewarden
12" 7 5+ 2 6+ Flying terrors on tattered wings, Abhorrant Gorewardens patrol the mordant kingdoms of Ghyran, seeking intruders or precious relics that their liege might desire. Should they spot such a target they will descend in a screeching dive, reclaiming the lands in the name of their Ghoul King and disembowelling any trespassers with raking talons. | ||
