Circle Orboros
ATTENTION - Circle players, please add a short description to the units below that are missing it!
Race free my army of myth monsters!
The Circle Orboros is for your earth lovers and people who want an army of every kind of mythological monster you can think of and then some or an army of stone men, as if Stonehenge suddenly came to life and decide enough is enough with those freaking photographers! It is also an army for furry lovers, given the amount of naked furry flesh offered by the Tharns and warpwolves (werewolves in disguise!).
The Circle is a group of druids who maintain the balance of civilization and wilderness in the warmachine/hordes universe. Essentially, the world has a set of leylines that flow through across the land, and construction of things like cities disrupts them. The Circle believes disrupting too many of these will attract the attention of an aspect of the Devourer Wurm they worship and will wipe out all life in existence. They believe it is worthless trying to talk and explain why it is what they do and instead act all needlessly mystical and such while they butcher you, your family, and your dog, in the name of the greater good. Are they even right? Who knows, it's one of those things Privateer Press probably won't ever answer since leaving it open creates some ambiguity.
This has of course annoyed a couple of people, the trollbloods most recently and now the circle finds itself fighting every faction out there, trying to hold out while achieving their aims. You can't say they aren't ambitious.
Circle armies are hard and fast hitting, focusing on magic and speed over staying power. What is fun is that they have a variety of different force to chose on, the creatures mentioned above (griffins, werewolves, satyrs, etc); big constructions of enchanted rock; wild savage tribesmen that worship a devouring god; and the circle's druids and men itself. The option to theme your army or mix and match appeals.
Forces of the Circle
Warlocks
- Baldur the Stonecleaver (Epic version: Baldur the Stonesoul) - Cool old dude that is about the only level headed member of the circle and is more worried about what sneaky old everblight is up to then getting promoted. Can swing a big ass sword like it's nothing.
- Cassius the Oathkeeper & Wurmwood, Tree of Fate
- Kaya the Wildborne (Epic version: Kaya the Moonhunter and Laris)
- Krueger the Stormwrath (Epic version: Krueger the Stormlord) - Mad old dude that looks like Fred Phelps a bit, he hates humanity and wants to bury them all under the sea or land or whichever is easier. All this stems from being born with a mark indicating he would wield the magic of Circle's druids, and he happened to born in any area controlled by the Protectorate of Menoth whose policy on such people was a swift execution. He survived and grew to hate the Protectorate and all other civilizations and aims to wipe them from the planet and rule with an iron fist. Has a rivalry with Morvahna in which each declares the other is bat shit crazy without realising the irony of their statements.
- Mohsar the Desertwalker
- Morvahna the Autumnblade (Epic version: Morvahna the Dawnshadow) - Taking after Hera's example from Greek mythology, she is a real bitch that just cares about power. Use to shagging Kromac using her boobs of fruitfulness until he saw her for the lying power mad witch she is. She is unable to grasp Kromac has got over her and fully expects him to come back.
- Grayle the Farstrider
- Kromac the Ravenous - Half man/half furry although this is a furry fully capable of chopping you into pieces.
