Malal Sorcery

Malal Discipline

A PSYKER that can use powers from the Dark Hereticus discipline can replace one of its Dark Hereticus powers with It Should Not Be.

1. It Should Not Be: The Wizard stills the Warp around his opponents, creating a horrible feeling of emptiness in those affected. It Should Not Be has a warp charge value of 7. If manifested, roll 2D6. The closest visible enemy unit within 18" of the psyker suffers a mortal wound for each point that the total exceeds their Leadership.
2. Spite: The Wizard fills his followers with the will to harm others beyond the point where there is anything to gain from doing so. Spite has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, pick a Malal Daemon unit within 18" of the psyker. All casualties inflicted on that unit inflict an automatic hit on the unit that inflicted it until your next psychic phase, the hit has a Strength value equal to the units Toughness, the minimum AP value required to completely ignore the units Save and a Damage value equal to the units Wounds.
3. Juxtaposition: The Wizard releases a contrasting blast of energy that somehow shrouds allies in darkness and blinds enemies with light. Justaposition has a Warp Charge value of 7. If manifested, any unit attacking an allied unit within 6" of the casting model must subtract 1 from their hit rolls and all enemy units within 6" of the caster must subtract 1 from their hit rolls until the start of your next psychic phase.
4. Drain Life: The Wizard takes a deep breath, sucking the life out of those who stand before him. Drain Life has a warp charge value of 5. If manifested, select a visible enemy unit within 18" of the psyker and roll 3 dice. The target suffers one mortal wound for each roll of 5+. For each mortal wound inflicted, the casting model regains a lost wound.
5. Vortex of Annihilation: Vortex of Annihilation has a warp charge value of 8. If manifested, identify the nearest enemy model that is within 12" of the psyker and visible to it; that model’s unit, and every other unit (friend and foe) within 3" of that model, suffers D3 mortal wounds. The number of mortal wounds inflicted is D6 instead if the power is manifested with a Psychic test of 12+.
6. Schismatic Lance: Warp Charge 3. The Psyker fires a blast of darklight from the palm of his hand. Schismatic Lance has a warp charge value of 6. If manifested, select a visible enemy model within 12" and draw a line between them and the psyker. Roll a D6 for each model the centre of the line passes over. For each roll of 5+ that model’s unit suffers a mortal wound.

Lore of Malal

Destruction brings Creation (Daemons of Chaos lore attribute): When a Daemon casts a spell from the Lore of Malal that causes one or more unsaved wounds, choose a unit of Hook Horrors or Paradoxes within 12" of the caster and roll a D6 for each wound caused. If it is a unit of Hook Horrors, add 1 model to the unit for each result of 5 or 6. If it is a unit of Paradoxes, add 1 model to the unit for each result of 6. Models are added one at a time to the back rank. If the back rank is full at any point, or the unit has a single rank of at least 5 models, the next model starts a new back rank. Models that cannot be placed (because there isn't enough room, or you do not have sufficient models) are lost. Models created in this way have no upgrades and do not award additional victory points.

It Should Not Be (Signature Spell; Cast on a 5+): The Wizard stills the Warp around his opponents, creating a horrible feeling of emptiness in those affected. It Should Not Be is a Hex that targets an enemy unit within 24". That unit must take a Panic or Daemonic Instability test. The wizard can choose to extend the range of this spell to 48". If he does so, the casting value is increased to 8+.

1. Spite: (Cast on a 8+) The Wizard fills his followers with the will to harm others beyond the point where there is anything to gain from doing so. Remains in Play. Spite is an augment spell with a range of 24". Whenever that unit suffers casualties, the unit that caused the casualties suffers a single hit for each wound inflicted. These hits are resolved at the same strength value as the affected units toughness and ignore armor saves. When in close combat these hits are resolved after the Initiative 1 step and count towards combat resolution. The wizard can choose to have this spell affect all friendly units within 12". If he does so, the casting value is increased to 16+.
2. Juxtaposition (Cast on a 8+): The Wizard releases a contrasting blast of energy that somehow shrouds allies in darkness and blinds enemies with light. Remains in Play. Juxtaposition is both an Augment and a Hex spell that affects all models in the casters unit and models that are in base contact with the casters unit. Allied units have all To Hit rolls made against them suffer a -1 penalty while all To Hit rolls made against affected enemy units gain a +1 bonus.
3. Drain Life (Cast on a 9+): The Wizard takes a deep breath, sucking the life out of those who stand before him. Drain Life is a direct damage spell that is cast on the Wizard himself. It enables him to unleash a Strength 4 Breath Weapon attack. If this attack causes a single unsaved wound, the caster regains a wound lost earlier in the battle. The caster can increase the power of this spell to Strength 5. If he does so, the casting value is increased to 11+.
4. Vortex of Annihilation (Cast on a 15+): A tiny warp breach is created that is so chaotic that not even daemons will dare use if for the risk of getting ripped into nothingness by its entropy. Remains in play. The Vortex is a magical vortex that uses the small round template. Once the template is placed, the player then nominates the direction in which the Vortex will move. To determine how many inches the template moves, roll an artillery dice and multiply the result by 3. Any model touched by the template must pass a Strength test or be slain outright with no saves except Magic Resistance allowed. If the result on the artillery dice is a misfire, centre the template on the caster and roll a scatter dice and a D6. The template moves the number of inches equal to the result of the D6, in the direction shown on the scatter dice (if you roll a Hit!, use the little arrow shown on the Hit! symbol). In either event, in subsequent turns, the Vortex travels in a random direction and moves a number of inches equal to the roll on an artillery dice. If a misfire is rolled in subsequent turns, the Vortex collapses in upon itself and is removed. A particularly brave Wizard can infuse the Vortex of Annihilation with more power, so that it uses the large round template instead. If he does so, the casting value is 25+.
5. Schismatic Lance (Cast on a 18+): The Wizard fires a blast of darklight from the palm of his hand. Schismatic Lance is a Magic Missile with a range of 36". It causes a Strength 8 hit that has the Multiple Wounds (D3) special rule and penetrates ranks in the same manner as a shot from a Bolt Thrower. Armour saves are not permitted against wounds caused by Schismatic Lance. If the target does not have the Undead, Nekharan Undead or Daemonic special rule, all failed To Wound rolls caused by this spell must be re-rolled.

Daemonic Gifts

Warhammer 40k 7th edition

Daemons of Malal rolls on the same tables as seen in Codex: Chaos Daemons. They also have their own gifts of Malal.

The weapons of Malal sap the abilities of their wielders foes, turning their own strengths against them.

Lesser Reward: 0. Parascythe: Melee weapon, enemies struck with this weapon must take armor and invulnerable saves at a -2 penalty (which means that 5+ saves of either type have no effect). This accumulates with other penalties to their saves.

Greater Rewards: 0. Sickle of Ruin : AP4 melee. In each Assault Phase, roll a d3 and select one of the following effects for the rest of the assault phase:

• Increase the Strength and Attack values of the wielder by the result (To a maximum of 10).
• Reduce enemies Weapon Skill and Initiative in base contact by the result (To a minimum of 1). This penalty can only be applied to a model once per turn.

Instruments of Chaos: If, when you roll on the Warp Storm table, you roll a result where a dark god makes an attack on the battlefield, you may re-roll a single dice to determine if a unit is hit or not for each friendly Daemon of Malal model with an Instrument of Chaos currently on the table. Otherwise, the rules are the same as in Codex: Chaos Daemons.

Icons of Chaos: The rules can be found in Codex: Chaos Daemons. A unit may upgrade their Icon into the following:

• Banner of Destruction: This banner crafted from a nihilist turns the protections of those it gazes upon against them. A Banner of Destruction is an Icon of Chaos. Once per game, during the Shooting Phase, the Icon bearer may make a shooting attack with the following profile: Range: 24" Assault 12 S:* AP:* Pinning. Hits from this Banner wound equal to the targets best save (for example, a model with a 4+ invulnerable save is wounded on a 4+) and cannot be saved against.

Parasite Tick: The Herald rides a scuttling insect that sucks from the warp reflection of the landscape it strides across.The model receives +1 Strength, +1 Wounds, +1 attacks and its unit type becomes cavalry.

The Portalglyph: Add Hook Horrors to the list of models that may be summoned with The Portalglyph.

Vessel of Xemn'yn'me'X the Void: The Greater Daemon that has become infused into the hull of this war machine is known as Xemn'yn'me'X the Void, a Guardian of Contradictions that was captured and twisted by the other Chaos Gods into its opposite, a being that wishes to protect instead of destroy. Upon being recovered by Malal, it was bound to a cage that will draw it back inside should it's link to the materium be destroyed. Malal will occasionally allow its mortal followers to bind it into a machine of war, it using its powers to bolster the defenses of those around it. Should its vessel be destroyed the daemon briefly reverts back to its original will and will use this moment to destroy what it was bound into. This Legacy of ruin may be taken by a single Chaos Space Marine vehicle at a cost of +15 points or +20 points for a Super-Heavy vehicle. This vehicle has the Fear and Daemonic Possession special rules. In addition, any unit equipped with an Icon of Anarchy within 12" may re-roll any unsuccessful saves. Should a model with this legacy lose its last HP it suffers an Explodes! result on the vehicle damage table. If the model is a Super-Heavy vehicle it suffers a Titanic Explosion instead.

Warhammer Fantasy

Daemons of Malal rolls on the same tables as seen in Daemons of Chaos. They also have their own gifts of Malal:

Lesser Reward: 0. Parascythe: This large weapon resembles a farming tool and appears to phase through protections both physical and magical as if they aren't there, severing the life of all it strikes. Great Weapon. Attacks made with this weapon cause penalties to Ward Saves as if they were Armor Saves.

Greater Rewards: 0. Sickle of Ruin: Each Sickle of Ruin is crafted from the remains of a permanently slain Greater Daemon or Daemon Prince. The remains try in vain to reform themselves from ambient magic or physical energy. In each Close Combat Phase, roll a d3 and select one of the following effects for the rest of the assault phase:

• Increase the Strength and Attack values of the wielder by the result (To a maximum of 10).
• Reduce the Weapon Skill and Initiative of all enemy units in base contact by the result (To a minimum of 1). This penalty can only be applied to a model once per turn.

Daemonic Loci

Warhammer Fantasy

• Lesser Locus of Decimation: The bearer and its unit have the Terror special rule.
• Greater Locus of Obliteration: The bearer and its unit have the Killing Blow special rule.
• Exalted Locus of Oblivion: When the bearer or its unit charges an enemy unit within 11" they may only elect to hold as their charge reaction.

Warhammer 40k 8th edition

• Locus of Obliteration: gives all affected units +1 Leadership

Warhammer 40k 7th edition

• Lesser Locus of Decimation: Grants the Crusader special rule.
• Greater Locus of Obliteration: Adds +1 Leadership, and allows a reroll on Daemonic Instability tests once per turn. Keep the second roll even if worse.
• Exalted Locus of Oblivion: When charging an enemy unit within 6", that unit cannot Overwatch or use Counter Attack.

Malal Warlord Traits Table

If your Warlord has the Daemon of Malal special rule it can roll on the table below instead of those in Warhammer 40:000: The Rules or Codex: Chaos Daemons.

1. Master of the Warp Path: Even the most chaotic Warp Storms can be stilled by this Daemon, allowing itself or its forces to appear exactly where they wish. During deployment, you can setup your Warlord and one additional unit in the Warp instead of placing them on the battlefield. At the end of any of your Movement phases they can rip into reality to arrive on the battlefield – set them up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models.
2. Destroyer: This Daemons mere presence threatens to unwind reality. Each time your Warlord fights, it can make a single Destroyer attack instead of its normal close combat attacks. If it does, make a single hit roll; if successful, the target suffers D3 mortal wounds.
3. Scourer: This Daemon is completely dedicated to ensuring that nothing but featureless wastelands are left in its wake. Increase all damage inflicted by your Warlord by 1.
4. Devourer of Warp-Horrors: The Warp-spawned Horrors that attempt to take advantage of the lapses in concentration of this daemon or its followers will find themselves dragged into its gaping maw instead. Roll a dice each time an allied model suffers Perils of the Warp; on a 3+ your Warlord’s absorbs the Warp Horror such that they do not suffer Perils of the Warp and the Warlord regains a lost wound.
5. Unmaker of the Mind: The Daemon causes even the strongest of wills to become brittle. All enemy units within 11" of the Warlord suffers a -1 leadership penalty, and can't re-roll morale tests .
6. Warp Ripper: The Daemon's proximity causes weapons to strike harder and bite deeper then they otherwise would. Each time an enemy unit fails a Morale test within 11" of your Warlord, one additional model flees from that unit.

Hellforged Artefacts

Add the following to the list of Hellforged Artefacts.

• The Leech Pendant: The Leech Pendant is imbued with a stolen locus from each of the other four chaos gods. These loci are almost constantly warring with each other and the dominant locus is the one that is currently empowering the bearer though occasionally the essences will work together so that they all empower the bearer. Malal model only. At the start of each turn. Roll a D6. The Leech Pendant grants one of the following bonuses based on the result of the D6 for that turn.

1. The model benefits from one of the following rules as chosen by the owner: Unstoppable Ferocity, Ephemeral Form, Disgustingly Resilient, Quicksilver Swiftness.
2. The bearer gains the Disgustingly Resilient rule.
3. The bearer gains the Unstoppable Ferocity rule.
4. The bearer gains the Quicksilver Swiftness rule.
5. The bearer gains the Ephemeral Form rule.
6. The bearer gains the following rules: Unstoppable Ferocity, Ephemeral Form, Disgustingly Resilient, Quicksilver Swiftness.

Malal Stratagems

• Banner of Destruction (1CP): Use this Stratagem before the battle. Choose one of your Malal models with a Daemonic Icon. That icon is upgraded to a Banner of Destruction. In addition to its normal ability, the power of the banner can be used once per battle, at the beginning of any Shooting phase. When used, select a unit within 11". Every model in the unit rolls an armor save, for each save passed, that unit suffers a single mortal wound.
• Locus of Oblivion (2CP): Use this Stratagem before declaring a charge. The unit being charged cannot fire Overwatch.
• Devour (2CP): Use this Stratagem during the fight phase. Every Malal unit regains a lost wound for each wound inflicted.

Kaleb Daark	4	8	3	5	5	3	7	5	9	Infantry (Special Character)

Equipment: Shield

Magic Items:

• Dreadaxe: Dreadaxe is a living axe, bearing part of the soul of a Guardian of Contradictions. As the weapon strikes its jaws close, biting deep into the soul-stuff of his victim. As the soul of the victim is sucked out the body shrivels away to almost nothing. If Kaleb Daark inflicts an unsaved wound, Dreadaxe will attempt to drain the victims soul. The victim must take a Leadership test. If the test is failed then the victim is automatically killed (no saves allowed). In addition, the victim's soul feeds Malal, Dreadaxe and Kaleb. The leadership of the victim is then divided by three with any remainder ignored. One third goes to Malal and is ignored for the purposes of the game, one third goes to Dreadaxe, and the last third goes to Kaleb. The points that go into Dreadaxe can be used in the next round of combat only as a 'to wound' bonus. All points are used at once and are not carried over. The points that go to Kaleb are retained in a pool. A maximum of 1 point may be used in any turn to modify any dice rolled by Kaleb by 1.
• Leech Armor: Kaleb Daark is a pale man with white hair, which is the only visibly apparent affect of the strain from his relationship with Malal. Most of the strain from that relationship comes from the Leech Armor that he wears which drains him in order to toughen itself. Chaos Armor. The Leech Armor grants a 4+ Ward Save and the Magic Resistance (1) special rule. For each wound that Kaleb suffers, his Ward Save suffers a -1 penalty (so if he has two wound remaining he has a 5+ Ward Save and if he has one wound remaining he has a 6+ Ward Save). If Kaleb regains any lost wound for any reason, he loses the penalty to his Ward Save.

SPECIAL RULES: Daemon of Malal, Daemonic, Nothing Besides The Self, The Self is All, Out of Sight, Out of Mind, Out of Reality

Nothing Besides The Self: All things are the same, all things are the self, when the Self is removed all things must be removed. Any enemy unit locked in combat with Solipsism or his unit gains the Daemonic Instability special rule or loses that special rule if they already have it.

The Self Is All: What benefits the self benefits all, what harms the self harms all. All models with the Daemon of Malal Special Rule (including Solipsism) within 6" may, at the beginning of the Assault phase, either increase their Strength and Attacks by 1, or decrease the WS and Initiative of any enemy models in base contact by 1 (this penalty can only be applied once per turn). This ability stacks with the effects of a Sickle of Ruin.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind, Out of Reality: If the self cannot realize the existence of the non-self, the non-self cannot exist. If a model cannot draw Line of Sight to Solipsism then any attacks made by it cannot harm him (for example, if a template scatters outside of the model's line of sight onto Solipsism then Solipsism is treated as not having been hit). If Solipsism is in a unit this special rule does not affect the ability for enemy units to harm his unit.

Daemon Cohort of Malal (AoS)

Organisation: The Daemon Cohort of Malal consists of the following units:

• 1 Guardian of Contradictions
• 1 Maiden of Malal or Maiden of Malal on Parasite Tick
• 3 units of Hook Horrors of Malal
• 1 units of Paradoxes of Malal or Doomriders of Malal

Abilities:

• All Consuming Devourers: Enemy wizards attempting to harness the Winds of Magic may find the Winds ripped right out their hands into the mouth of the cohort. All units in a Daemon Cohort of Malal can attempt to unbind spells in each enemy hero phase as if they were a Wizard. If they already are a Wizard then they add +2 to the result of any unbinding rolls made for it.
• Unmaker of the Mind: In the face of the Cohort of Malal, even the strongest of minds become brittle. All enemy units within 11" of one or more models from the Daemon Cohort of Malal suffer a -1 penalty to their Bravery.
