====Ash Deathguard====

"''Fire, poisons, claws, pincers, wheels... what slave knows what the lover feels?''"

An Ash Cultist in similar progress as the Ash Poet, an Ash Guard is a creature in between the Ash Ghoul and the powerful Ascended Sleeper. It's skull slowly deforms into a shape similar to a large, magical flute. A creature like this who chose the path to become a Sixth House holy-warrior is called an Ash Deathguard. Posessing enormous powers and intelligence, and speaking, like the Ash Poet in riddles, rhymes and songs. An Ash Deathguard, having earned it's terrible name this way, has the holy task of protecting his fellow Ash Cultists. While the lower Ash Guards protect small, hidden Sixth House shrines from intrusions, the Ash Deathguards protect the greatest shrines of the Sixth House servants lying beneath the Red Mountain, inside the dreaded region of the Ghostfence. A region which the Temple Buoyant Armigers dread to go into, with all the right reasons. 

25 pts per model. Elite. Skirmish, Infantry, Ash Creature. 4-10 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.
