Leader

Inherent

Allied, non-animal units within 5" of this unit can use this unit's Morale stat for Checks instead of their own.

Life Magic

Spellcasting

This unit is capable of casting Arcane Magic. See the relevant spell list for a list of learnable spells. As an Arcane Caster, this unit has an innate 'Basic' spell that is always castable and is in addition to other spells learnt. It also only has a single weapon slot which must be a melee weapon and is unable to use armour or a shield.

Mark Target

Inherent

Once per Ranged Phase, instead of making a Ranged Attack, this unit may instead Mark an enemy unit within 10" (and within line-of-sight) until the start of the next turn. A unit that is Marked can be targeted by Ranged Attacks even when the unit is Engaged, but cannot be Protected from such Ranged Attacks.

Slow

This unit may not Run, but may Engage as normal (ie. up to 1.5x of base Move).

Large

Inherent

NameDifficultyDescription
Invisibility12Ongoing. Choose one ally within 5" (including themselves). This unit is treated as no longer existing for the purposes of targeting or blocking Movement, line-of-sight or picking up Treasure. If it is Engaged, it is no longer Engaged and moves 1". If this unit Engages, casts a Spell, or makes a Ranged attack, the spell ends.
Control Earth10Ongoing. Choose a point within 10". Place a solid platform measuring roughly 2" by 2" by 3" at that point (in any orientation). The terrain must fit within the space. If this is cast on a unit, move that unit directly up to the top of the platform. When the spell ends, the platform slowly recedes and units are placed directly down, back on the ground unharmed.
Root11Ongoing. Choose one unit within 20". That unit cannot Engage, Move, or Run.
Earthquake13All units within 10" must make an Agility check or become Dazed.
Magic Arrow12Basic. Cast Attack. Target one unit you can see within 30" and perform a Cast Attack.
