Cado Ezechiar, the Hollow King, is armed with an Ezechiarian Greatsword. He cannot gain a subfaction keyword.
WIZARD: This unit can attempt to
cast 1 spell in your
hero phase and attempt to
unbind 1 spell in the enemy hero phase.
The Hunger: Those who bear the Soulblight curse constantly crave blood and are empowered by feasting upon their foes.
Each time this unit fights, after all of its attacks have been resolved, you can
heal up to a number of wounds allocated to this unit equal to the number of wounds and
mortal wounds caused by those attacks that were allocated to enemy units.
The Court of the Lost: The iron rings worn by Cado hold the spirits of souls from his past. In times of need, he summons their ethereal forms to aid him.
At the start of your
hero phase, if this unit is on the battlefield, you can say it will summon a spirit from the Court of the Lost. If you do so, pick 1 of the effects below. That effect lasts until the start of your next hero phase.
Spirit of the Steed: This unit has a Move characteristic of 14".
Spirit of the Tutor: Add 1 to
casting,
unbinding and
dispelling rolls for this unit.
Spirit of the Fallen: If an attack made by this unit wounds the target, that attack causes a number of
mortal wounds to the target equal to the weapon’s Damage characteristic and the
attack sequence ends (do not make a
save roll).
Retribution or Salvation: Cado’s quest for both vengeance and self-control manifests as two forms of sorcery: bolts of killing judgement and an aura of regal authority that animates nearby dead.
Retribution or Salvation is a spell that has a
casting value of 6 and a range of 18". If successfully cast, pick 1 unit within range and visible to the caster. If that unit is an enemy unit, it suffers D3
mortal wounds. If that enemy unit has the
CHAOS keyword, it suffers 3 mortal wounds instead of D3. If that unit is a friendly
SOULBLIGHT GRAVELORDS SUMMONABLE unit, you can
heal up to D3 wounds allocated to that unit or, if no wounds are allocated to that unit, you can return a number of
slain models to it that have a combined Wounds characteristic of D3 or less.
