Slaves to Darkness – Daemon Prince
8" 10 3+ 5 Daemon Princes are those champions who, through determination and countless atrocities, have surpassed the heights of the Path to Glory. Only the most vanishingly rare souls can hold the gods’ attention long enough to achieve this apotheosis, joining the infernal ranks of daemonkind. Daemon Princes are embodiments of Chaos itself. The earth rebels at their presence, for they are things that should not exist. Palls of shadow surround a Daemon Prince as the land cracks and vomits torrents of hellflame. With talon and cursed blade, the Daemon Prince brings ruin to the realms, assured that there are none who might challenge them.
Many Daemon Princes spend most of their existence within the Realm of Chaos, fighting in the endless wars of the dark powers. The most egotistical and war-hungry, however, revel in the adulation of their mortal lessers – for they are as living gods to the hordes of ruin, proof that ascension is possible to achieve. Daemon Princes will look for any opportunity to bolster their magnificence, from sporting grisly trophy racks to sprouting vast wings. They are forces of obliteration that few can match, ruling over empires of Chaos dedicated to their glorification. | ||

Hit Roll
Roll a dice. If the roll equals or exceeds the attacking weapon’s Hit characteristic, the attack scores a successful hit: move on to the next step. If not, the attack fails and the attack sequence ends. Unmodified hit rolls of 1 always fail. If an unmodified hit roll for an attack made with a weapon is a 6, that attack is a critical hit.| Critical hits have no effect on their own but often trigger additional effects (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities). | ||
