Sylvaneth – Ylthari’s Guardians
5" 3 5+ 1 The Thornwych Ylthari tirelessly seeks those soulpods that have been claimed by Nagash, and by channelling rampant life magic she rids the dead places of those who would serve the Great Necromancer. Grown from ancient soulpods in the Realm of Death, Ylthari’s Guardians were once diplomats and emissaries, though now they are evergreen with bitter wrath and seek only vengeance for their kin who have been slain. | ||
