Khainite Shadowstalkers

Released: October 2020, Catacombs boxed set (Warcry first edition). Refreshed August 2022.

Morathi's most trusted agents of murder and misdirection are the Khainite Shadowstalkers. These silent killers wear the mircath – the shademark – a brand woven from Ulguan sorcery that grants them supernatural powers, allowing them to leap between shadows and garrotte their foes with coils of pure darkness.
