Lauka Vai is the queen of the Avengorii dynasty. Within this monstrous vampire, an eternal battle rages, for though she desires to lead her kin against only the worthiest foes, her thirsts sometimes drive her to the most terrible slaughter.

Notes: Single, Unique
Lauka Vai, Mother of Nightmares, is armed with an Askurga Rapier, Gore-drenched Talons and Impaling Tail.
WIZARD: This unit can attempt to
cast 1
spell in your
hero phase and attempt to
unbind 1 spell in the enemy hero phase.
WARMASTER: If this unit is included in a Soulblight Gravelords army, it is treated as a
general even if it is not the model picked to be the army’s general.
A Queen Amongst Monsters: The Mother of Nightmares is served by a menagerie of twisted vampires and monstrous undead titans, creatures empowered by her unholy presence.
Once per turn, at the end of the
charge phase, you can pick 1 friendly
AVENGORII MONSTER wholly within 12" of this unit. You can carry out 2 different
monstrous rampages with that
MONSTER in that phase instead of 1.
Nightmare’s Miasma: The strange curse of the Vengorians sees shining blades and hallowed relics crumble and patinate in their presence.
While an enemy unit is within 3" of any friendly units with this ability, worsen the Rend characteristic of that unit’s melee weapons by 1 (to a minimum of ‘-’).
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 (to a maximum of 6).
The Queen’s Dictat: Gesturing with her blade, Lauka channels her bestial rage and uses it to mark a foe, suffusing them with an arcane blood-stink that is intoxicating to the beasts of the grave.
The Queen’s Dictat is a spell that has a
casting value of 6 and a range of 24". If successfully cast, pick 1 enemy unit within range and visible to the caster. Until your next
hero phase, friendly
AVENGORII MONSTERS are eligible to fight in the
combat phase if they are within 6" of that enemy unit instead of 3", and they can move an extra 3" when they
pile in.
