Hedonites of Slaanesh – Symbaresh Twinsouls
6" 2 4+ 1 Symbaresh are egomaniacal warriors who have made truly dire bargains in their quest for primacy. Once a faceless blade amongst the Myrmidesh order, they grew to chafe at being but one amongst many. Marking themselves with runes of conjugation and offering up the souls of six aelves in sacrifice, they forged a pact with one of Slaanesh’s daemons, allowing the entity to inhabit their soul in exchange for strength and alacrity. Now far beyond a mere mortal, these daemonkin discard their helmets and take up highly bespoke weapons, shrieking rhapsodies of self-praise while slaying with frenzied showmanship.
Symbaresh are strong enough to slice an orruk’s head from their neck in one motion and swift enough to unnaturally contort away from what seemed like a sure blow. The daemon within them, however, is no idle passenger. Little by little, it begins to take over the Symbaresh, stripping away their sense of self and hollowing them out ready to be fully possessed. Only the most insanely self-assured of Twinsouls can hope to subordinate this lurking presence. Known as Egopomps, these figures strut with the exaggerated swagger of warrior kings, drawing flocks of lesser Symbaresh to them through their arrogant magnetism. | ||
