This is a work in progress of Sixth House, for [[Scrollhammer]], by Dagoth Guy. [[Image:Dagothandfriends.png|thumb|625px|right|These guys.]] ==Introduction== ===A House Unmourned=== [Lore and stuff goes here] [And here] [etc., etc.] <blockquote> ''"The Sixth House was not dead, but only sleeping. Now it wakes from its long dream, and with its Lord, Dagoth Ur, it comes forth to free Morrowind of foreign rulers and divine pretenders. When the land is swept clean of false friends and greedy thieves, the children of Veloth will build anew a garden of plenty in this blighted wasteland."'' </blockquote> ===Blight and the Divine Disease=== [Lore and stuff goes here] I AM THE SHARMAT I AM OLDER THAN MUSIC WHAT I BRING IS LIGHT WHAT I BRING IS A STAR WHAT I BRING IS AN ANCIENT SEA WHEN YOU SLEEP YOU SEE ME DANCING AT THE CORE IT IS NOT A BLIGHT IT IS MY HOUSE I PUT A STAR INTO THE WORLD'S MOUTH TO MURDER IT TEAR DOWN THE PYLONS MY BLIND FISH SWIM IN THE NEW PHLOGISTON TEAR DOWN THE PYLONS MY DEAF MOONS SING AND BURN AND ORBIT ME I AM OLDER THAN MUSIC WHAT I BRING IS LIGHT WHAT I BRING IS A STAR WHAT I BRING IS AN ANCIENT SEA [And here] The following book contains the rules necessary to field a House Dagoth army in games of [[Scrollhammer]]. ==General Rules== '''Ash Creature Racial Traits:''' Ash Creatures have Fearless and are unaffected by disease. ====Blight Diseases==== Every turn, all models in base contact with a model that has been infected by a Blight Disease must roll 1d6; On a roll of 6 the model in base contact contracts the same Blight Disease as the infected model. Once a unit has aquired a Blight Disease, they may only gain more instances of that particular Blight, except if they would gain corprus. Blight Diseases ignore ordinary disease resistance and can not be cured by ordinary means of curing disease. '''Blighted Aura:''' Each turn, all models in base contact with this unit must roll a D6. On a result equal to or higher then the number in parenthesis the unit is granted a random blight disease. Another dice roll will then determine what the disease is- rolled on the Blight List or Greater Blight list, as noted. '''Blighted Attack:''' Whenever an enemy model is struck by this unit in melee (saved or not), roll a D6. A result equal to or higher then the number in parenthesis grants the model a random blight disease. Another dice roll will then determine what the disease is- rolled on the Blight List or Greater Blight list, as noted. ''Blight List'' * 1-2: Ash Woe Blight * 3-4; Black-Heart Blight * 5-6; Corprus ''Greater Blight List'' * 1: Ash Woe Blight * 2; Ash-chancre * 3; Black-Heart Blight * 4; Chanthrax Blight * 5-6; Corprus '''Corprus Aura:''' Each turn, all models in base contact with this unit must roll a D6. On a result equal to or higher then the number in parenthesis, the unit is granted Corprus Disease. '''Corprus Attack:''' Whenever an enemy model is struck by this unit in melee (saved or not), roll a D6. A result equal to or higher then the number in parenthesis grants the model Corprus. '''Blight Disease List:''' ''Ash Woe Blight:'' Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Ash Woe Blight are afflicted with -2 Magicka until cured. ''Ash-chancre:'' Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Ash-chancre are afflicted with -2 Leadership until cured. ''Black-Heart Blight:'' Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Black-Heart Blight are afflicted with -1 Strength and -1 Toughness until cured. ''Chanthrax Blight:'' Blight Disease. Models that have been infected by Chanthrax Blight are afflicted with -1 Initiative, -1/3 of their natural movement speed, and -1 Attack to a minimum of 1 until cured. ''Corprus:'' When a model has been infected by Corprus it loses all spell casting abilities, becomes Immune to Disease, and gains +1S and +1T. Corprus can not be cured by any means. At the end of a player's turn should they have units infected by Corprus perform a Leadership test for each infected model. (Models of the same unit can be rolled together). On a failure the model(s) is/are removed from the game, and the Sixth House player that infected the model(s) gains the same number of Corprus tokens. A model that is Monstrous and removed in this fashion instead generates 3 Corprus Tokens. Once a Sixth House player has accumulated at least 5 Corprus tokens they may roll a dice at the start of their turn. On 4+ they may immediately then Deep Strike a 5-20 unit of Corprus stalkers, each model costing one Corprus token. This may be performed multiple times, so long as the Sixth House player has at least 5 Corprus tokens, or a roll of 1-3 is made. ====The Nerevarine, Honorer of the Tribe Unmourned==== Once, long ago, Dagoth Ur and Lord Nerevar were friends and brothers, in peace and in war. No houseman ever served Nerevar better or more faithfully. Much that Dagoth Ur did was at his command, at great cost to himself, and his honor. Yet beneath Red Maintain, Nerevar struck down his loyal servant and friend, for the sole crime of guarding that which Nerevar himself had bound him by oath to defend. It was a cruel blow and a bitter betrayal. But it was not the end. Now Dagoth Ur and his house have returned, coming forth to free Morrowind of foreign rulers and divine pretenders. Though the Sixth House has been long in reawakening they have not forgotten Nerevar's transgressions. Still, inspite of his betrayal, remembering their old friendship, Dagoth Ur would yet forgive him. For the fellowship and honor that they once shared, if the Nerevarine would but pledge that friendship anew, Dagoth Ur would raise him high in his service, granting him counsel, wisdom, and all the power he needs to set the world aright. A Sixth House Army may take the Nerevarine from the great houses of Morrowind as an HQ choice, should their opponent not be using him already. Should this be done the Nerevarine uses the following as his Great House Allegiance: House Dagoth: The Nerevarine has +1T, +1S, Feels no Pain, and due to Azura's enmity, each enemy may force Nerevarine to re-roll one dice each game turn. A Nerevarine serving House Dagoth can never carry the Old Man's Lucky Coin, nor the Moon and Star. Instead the Nerevarine may purchase ''Myocardic Uninty'' for +20 points, which grants him a 5+ ward save and Disease: Corprus Aura (6+), Corprus Attack (5+). The Nerevarine ignores unit type restrictions when choosing magic items and Artifacts from the Sixth House armory and may select spells from both army booklets. See [[Scrollhammer:_Great_Houses_of_Morrowind#The_Nerevarine|Great Houses of Morrowind]] for rules for the Nerevarine. ==Army List== ===Overview=== A House Dagoth army uses the following list: Heroes: Ash Vampire, Sixth House Minister Core: Sleeper Cultists, Sixth House Retainers, Ash Zombies, Ash Wights Elite: Ash Ghouls, Houndmaster & Blighted Nix Hounds, Ash Deathguard, Ascended Sleepers Support: Corprus Stalkers, Lame Corprus, Corprus Beasts, Sixth House Bianzhong ===Heroes=== [[Image:AshVampire.png|thumb|250px|right|]] ====Ash Vampire==== ''"Vampires are loathsome monsters, creations of false gods and Western necromancers. The kinsmen of Lord Dagoth have been called 'ash vampires' by the ignorant, but they are not vampire in any way. They are wise and powerful, long-lived and masterful in sorcery -- but they are ageless, immortal wizards, like all of Lord Dagoth's kin -- and not vampires."'' Miles behind the Ghostfence, into the dreaded Red Mountain, where the sky rages, lie enormous and ancient Dwemer ruins. In the endless maze-complexes beneath these ruins dwell creatures of enormous power and intellect. These are the 'Ash Vampires', or as they call themselves; The Heartwights. Originally brothers and generals of Voryn Dagoth long ago in the First Era, when the Dunmer were still yet Chimer. In that age long past, they were once proud members of House Dagoth, and loyal followers of the First Council and the hortator, Indoril Nerevar. After the war with the Dwemer ended, Lord Dagoth and his brethren were betrayed, and slain at the hands of Nerevar and the Tribunal. No one realized it at the time -perhaps not even Dagoth Ur himself- however, a connection had been forged between the souls of Lord Dagoth, his brothers, and the Heart. They had embraced their final rest in the real world, yet found they themselves awake in the Dream-sleeve. More than three thousand years later, in the Second Era, when all that remained of Sixth House was naught but a distant memory, they returned. Dagoth Ur and his brothers woke from their long slumber, and took the heart chamber for their own, fighting off the Tribunal again and again. No matter how many times the Tribunal destroyed Dagoth Ur and the Heartwights, in the end they would always return, waiting at the Heart, freshly revived yet again. It was a hopeless battle that the Tribunal fought, and after suffering devastating losses, they were finally forced to retreat from Red Mountain. Realizing that they could not win against Dagoth Ur and his Ash Vampires in open combat, it is then the Tribunal resorted to the construction of the Great Ghostfence. After securing the crater Red Mountain, the Heartwights quickly spread across the volcano to assume control of the abandoned Dwemer citadels, each claiming one in their own name. Within these citadels, the Heartwights secured the ancient tools and research of the Dwemer, which would help them in acheiving their ultimate goal: The building of a new God, Akulakhan, the destruction of the Tribunal, and the expulsion of the Imperials and all other outlander invaders from their native homeland. The Tribunal and their supporting forces continued to made seasonal campaigns against Dagoth Ur and his Ash Vampires, but never succeeded in gaining ground inside the ghostfence. The tide turned completely in favour of the House Dagoth however, when Almalexia and Sotha Sil lost the Dwemer artifacts Sunder and Keening to Dagoth Odros and Vemyn. From this point on the Tribunal retreated to their respective God-Cities, no longer showing their faces into the public, and House Dagoth began to grow in power and influence at ever faster rate. The Ash Vampires play a integral part in Dagoth Ur's plans, as generals, councilors, and champions of the Sixth House. Heartwights are not normal ash creature however; they are somehow directly connected to Dagoth Ur, and as a such, are completely different from the other sleepers. The Heartwights appear to control the magical manifestation of their flesh with uncanny skill. Making good use of their ability to shape corprusflesh, the Ash Vampires sculpt immeasurably strong and powerful bodies for themselves, appearing as large, pale, muscular Dunmer. While their physical prowess may be impressive, it is but only second to the terrible magicks that they wield, possesing mystic abilities far surpassing those of any mortal. The powers of the Ash vampires is nearly godlike, a fact that became terrifyingly obvious after two Heartwights managed to defeat two Gods of the Tribunal one-on-one. And with the Heart of Lorkhan in Dagoth Ur's possession, their powers will only continue to increase. 210 pts. Hero. Independent Character, Skirmish, Infantry, Ash Creature.

[[Image:Dagoth_Gares'_Ilunibi.jpg|thumb|585px|right|]] ====Sixth House Minister==== The ministers of House Dagoth serve as intermediaries between Red Mountain and the various cultists and lesser Ash Creatures, relaying and directing orders from Dagoth Ur and his Ash Vampires to the the rank and file of the Sixth House. They are the wardens of the secret bases of the Sixth House scattered across Morrowind, and they are the priests of the Sixth House cult. From their hidden shrines they lead their congregation in sharing the sacraments of flesh and blood, and dreaming the dreams of their Lord. The ministers of House Dagoth are tasked with overseeing that the servants of the Sixth House grow strong and wise in Lord Dagoth's ways, and to this end they lead the Children of His Flesh in contemplation, so that they might enter even-more-deeply into the profound enlightenment of the divine dreamworld. 70 pts.

The Sixth House is Risen and Lord Dagoth is its Glory!''" ''"Crazies with clubs have been attacking non-Dunmer. Call themselves Sleepers. Some folks hurt. A few killed. Sleepers go nuts when you try to arrest them, so we have to put them down. Some are strangers we can't trace. Others are locals, gone nuts. Ones we capture alive have complete amnesia, no idea where they are or what's going on. Just keep talking gibberish about the Sixth House awakening, serving Lord Dagoth, running foreigners out of Morrowind. Sounds like a new crazy cult or something."'' Ever since Dagoth Ur's victory over the Tribunal in securing the Heart Chamber, violent blight winds began to sweep down from Red Mountain with ever greater frequency. The Ash storms carry with them dangerous magicks, and their foul winds serve as a means to broadcast the dream-sendings of Dagoth Ur to the Dunmer of Morrowind. It begins with a completely normal Dunmer starting to hear whispers in their head, their sleep being plagued by nightmares, awaking up exhausted after a full night's rest; small things, things that they'd likely dismiss at first without a second thought. It ends with them waking up in the middle of the night to wander the streets, preaching heresies and mad poetry with a voice that isn't their own; with loosing track of what is real and what is dream; with waking up one morning covered in blood and holding a strange knife. These are the Sleepers, perfectly normal Dunmer on the outside, but have been claimed by the Sixth House. Recruited from the disaffected, members of the criminal underworld, the poor, or anyone else who would take joy in seeing the false gods of the Tribunal cast down and the dogs of the empire driven from Dunmers' the ancestral homeland, Sleeper Cultists fulfill the vital roll of acting as House Dagoth's hands with in the cities of the Dunmer, performing assassinations, sabotage, sowing dissent, or any other task that brings the Sixth House closer to its goal. The Temple estimates that every town in Vvardenfell contains organized cells of Sixth house cultists. Occassionally in the lands of Morrowind, one might come across a naked, raving mad Dunmer, screaming prayers to Dagoth Ur and to the Sixth House while frantically attacking anything that gets too close. These wretched madmer are known as Dreamers. Once Sleeper Cultists who realized what was happening to them, they chose to embrace service to the Sixth House, and in return for their loyality, Dagoth Ur has shared his divine dream with them, signifing their official welcome to the ranks of House Dagoth. However, Dagoth Ur's dream is something that mortals were never meant to behold, and as such, this event tends to thoroughly shatter the minds of those that experience it. Freshly driven insane and filled with the extacy of having been blessed with their Lord's everlasting glory, Dreamers devote their every action towards their frantic, fanatical worship of Dagoth Ur. 8 pts per model. Core. Skirmish, Infantry, Dark Elf. 5-20 models per unit. 25mm x 25mm base. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Name ! WS ! BS ! S ! T ! W ! I ! A ! Ld ! Mg !

Life is a dream. Blood is a dream. We sleep in one soul, the soul of Lord Dagoth.''" Guided by dream-sendings, Dreamer Cultists will eventually make their way to one of the many hidden shrines of the Sixth House, where they shall be inoculated with Corprus. This is the first step an Ash Cultist takes on their journey towards enlightenment and oneness with His flesh. Normally, as mortals were never meant to hold the power of the divine, Corprus causes those infected with it to develop horrible, debilitating mutations as well as causing progressive degradation of the mind; but in those who have dreamed the self-same dream as Dagoth Ur, the divine disease is able to realize its true potential, eliciting a far different effect upon the flesh of one has been so blessed. The first stage of corprus evolution, that of an Ash Slave, is marked by the point when the mutations caused by the divine disease become outwardly noticeable. While nothing about them has seems to changed drastically, there is still obviously something very off about their appearance, giving them a uncanny presence. The Ash slaves are the most common form of ash creature, and they compose the lowest rank of the members of House Dagoth. As the cultists evolve through the stages towards enlightenment, they are to be prepared for their service to the House. They will either, as suits their abilities, become Holy Warriors or Priests. Advanced Ash Slaves who are perparing to become Holy Warriors are known as Ash Guards. They serve as simple rank-and-file soldiers, acting as the guards to the secret strongholds of the Sixth House, in order to protect them against military incursions from the Temple Orders. Even those as lowly in the ranks of the Sixth House as the Ash Slaves and their ilk have tasted of the divine immortality offered by Lord Dagoth, and have therefore become unable to fear death or blood. The bodies of those who would become Holy Warriors are enhanced by corprus, providing them capabilities beyond those of normal mortals. The other path an evolving cultist might take is to become a priest of the Sixth House. Their starting duties lie in tending to the needs of fellow cultists and helping Sleepers and Dreamers with their rituals. An advanced ash slave who is preparing to becoming a priest is known as an Ash Skirmisher. While they retain the disturbing, uncanny appearance typical of Ash Slaves, they come across as friendly and welcoming, and strangely charismatic. Possessing a powerful grip on the art of magic, they search for people who are potentially suitable for indoctrination as Sleeper Cultists. They enlighten these individuals by sending their Lord's compulsions couched within dream imagery, and recruit willing mer into the service of the Sixth House. Whatever an Ash Skirmisher watches, their Lord watches with them. 9 pts per model. Core. Skirmish, Infantry, Ash Creature. 5-18 models per unit 25mm x 25mm base. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Name ! WS !

Each Retainer has different choices of weapons and talents, as described below. *Ash Slaves: Armed with Claws. Know two of the following spells: Curse-of-Ash, Spark, Earwig, First Barrier, Lower Resists. *Ash Guards: Armed with Shield. An Ash Guard must take a Hand Weapon OR a Spear. *Ash Skirmishers: Armed with Hand Weapon OR Spear, and a Short Bow. An Ash Skirmisher must take a Dagger OR a Second Hand Weapon.

A Champion is a Character. *Upgrade one model to Standard Bearer for +3 pts *Upgrade one model to Musician for +3 pts [[Image:StarWoundEnemy.jpg|thumb|275px|right|]] ====Ash Zombies==== "''WHERE ARE YOU, LORD? We cannot hear you.... SPEAK to us! PLEASE!''" In order to grow closer to divinity, the Ash Slaves delve themselves ever further into Dagoth Ur's divine song, an odd and confusing experience for the cultists at first, but they hum along in their own lesser way with their lord. To an outsider's view, it would seem that the cultists blabber about trivial things, write incoherent poetry, decorate their strongholds, and rearrange furniture over and over. But only those who are willing and worthy to awake from their slumber are able to hear the divine song, and understand the meaning of the scrabbled Sixth House verse, often carved on the chest of a freshly-murdered imperial. In the caves and strongholds far removed from watching eyes, cultists practice these rituals, and eventually ascend to the next stage in their evolution. As the Corprus brings them ever towards divinity, the disease mutates the Ash Cultists ever more in turn. During the transition to their next stage of enlightenment, Ash Slaves undergo a severe change. The disease causes the top half of their face to cave-in, leaving a gaping hole where their eyes and nose used to be, and revealing and an empty and rotting skull cavity within. Perhaps more disturbing than the deformities themselves is the fact that the Ash Zombies do not seem to be impaired by them in the slightest; they have lost their eyes, but their sight has only become clearer. They have lost their brain, yet they understand so much more now than they ever had before. This shows that the cultist truly has passed beyond their former mortal boundaries. The corprus strengthens their bodies beyond their former limits; even through they can't use magic in their current state, they are incredibly strong and durable, able to rip a man to shreds with their bare hands and shrug off considerable damage without effort. Wounds on their corprus-blessed bodies knit back together and lost limbs seamlessly grow back. Ash Zombies are often used as something akin to shock-troops; during this stage of enlightenment the Ash cultists' insanity has reached its peak, fervently giving worship to their Lord even as they frantically throw themselves at their enemies, desperate to draw the blood of any who oppose the Sixth House. 11 pts per model.

Your flesh will feed us all.''" Ash Wights are terrible creatures of a magical nature created by the Sixth House cult and its Lord, Dagoth Ur. They generally resemble Ash Zombies, save for the small growths now budding within their empty skull cavity, and for fact they have become more advanced in controlling the corprus disease. After a gradual period an Ash Zombie will eventually regain its magical abilities, their consciousness ever shifting, waking and dreaming. They become more proficient at spellcasting than they ever were before, able to control the schools of magic with ease, making them dangerous enemies to face. After reaching this stage, an Ash Zombie becomes a creature known as an Ash Wight, and is gifted a robe signifying their new rank within the Sixth House. Ash Wights cut off and eat exceptionally large amounts of corprus weepings in order to grow their strength. Elite Ash Wights that possess exceptional magical abilities will generally become ash priests when they advance in rank in House Dagoth. These promising Ash Wights on the verge of their next evolution are called Ash Sorcerers. Their blight infection is even more advanced than that of their kin, the small corprus growths slowly beginning to fill the empty hole in the Ash Sorcerer's face. They are generally very vengeful creatures, and they fanatically travel great distances to murder and dismembered those who oppose their Lord Dagoth Ur. 12 pts per model. Core.

An Ash Wight or Sorcerer who is especially deep in the heart of Lord Dagoth's mysteries will eventually grow a flute-like proboscis from the gaping hole in what was once their face. This creature is known as an Ash Ghoul, a priest of the Sixth House. At this stage of corprus evolution, their flesh grows to contain ever more divine power, and their magical powers increase dramatically in tandem. Able to channel the divine influence of Dagoth Ur to unwary Dunmer, the hidden caves and strongholds of the Sixth House seem to strum with divine melodies at their very presence, calling out to Sleepers and Dreamers to them in oneness with His flesh. Ash Ghouls are formidable foes indeed, as their minds and bodies are spiraling towards the divine in an ever-faster rate. No mere simple brute or senseless lunatic, the Ash Ghoul is extremely intelligent and capable of cunning tactics, and possesses the skill and strength to put such a mind to devastating use. Even without the threat of their fearsome magic, Ash Ghouls are not to be underestimated. Despite their emaciated appearance, Ash Ghouls are deceptively strong: possessing incredible strength and endurance far beyond that of an ordinary mortal. Even through the Ash Ghoul's body is marvelously saturated with the divine power of their Lord's blessings, they still among the least of His servants, as Ash Poets, Ascended Sleepers, and Ash Vampires stand high above them in Dagoth Ur's bountiful grace. An Ash Ghoul especially high in their Lord's grace will mutate even further; the tentacle-like organ growing from the hole in their face will grow larger and more pronounced. Eventually this growth will begin to encompass it's entire skull. These Ash Ghouls on the verge of enlightenment are known as an Ash Poets; Ash Cultists of extreme intelligence and power that have nearly completed their path towards achieving oneness with their Lord. Ash Poets, filled with near peerless wisdom in the ways of Dagoth Ur, choose to speak only through metaphors, parables, and verse, phrasing everything in riddles and rhymes, as they see the world in a different, divine perspective. Ash Poets are among the strongest of the Sixth House Cultists. 25 pts per model. Elite. Skirmish, Infantry, Ash Creature.3-15 models per unit. 25mm x 25mm base. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Name ! WS !

When blight storms come, animals walk in the storms. They get sick, get the red taint. Then they go crazy, bite and fight, go mad, kill everything. Without the herds, without the game, we must starve.''" In the ancient cave complexes, ruins and towers scattered around Vvardenfell, various Sixth House cults are hidden. Here the Sleepers and Dreamers go to when they are exposed, to join in with the well-organized and connected cults. Here these cultists are prepared for the coming struggle to regain Morrowind- trained to become raiders and irregular troops. All kinds of dangerous creatures are also bred in these well-hidden strongholds. The most fierce Nix-Hounds are being blighted and trained to become frenzied beasts of war. A normal Nix-Hound can already pose a threat to an unprepared warrior or adventurer, having big, rending claws and a sharp mouth built to suck blood from warm-blooded creatures. A blighted Nix-Hound however, becomes large, strong, and almost insanely aggressive and fierce. A team of Dreamer cultists is necessary to coordinate the blighted creatures, and prevent them from attacking anything in sight. 14 pts per Houndmaster. Elite.

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.

You think you slay me, and I am dead? It is just dream and waking, over and over, one appearance after another, nothing real. What you do here means nothing. Why do we waste our breath on you?''" Having reached the final stage of enlightenment and evolution, the poetry of the former Ash Poet becomes so sublime that all transcription becomes impossible, except by way of sheet music, the orchestration of which will slowly drive mortals into an irrevocable madness. At this point, the cultist has become more dream than flesh. Their form has become so distorted that they are rendered completely unrecognizable from their former mer-ish appearance. Where once was their face, a huge mass of osseous tentacles and flute-like growths now dominates the front of their body. These deranged creatures are known as Ascended Sleepers, though the fools of the Tribunal Temple simply call such terrifying creatures Flute-and-Pipe-Ogres, in reference to the great flute-organs that comprise what passes for their skull, which they use in their strange rituals and to perform extreme feats of magic and tonal architecture. Ascended Sleepers are also known to be extraordinarily intelligent, having experienced the secrets of the Dream-sleeve, and being ascended from it, seeing reality as it truly is: a dream. They have attained full enlightenment in the ways of Lord Dagoth, and have woken up from their former mortal illusions. Ascended Sleepers devote themselves towards furthering their Lord's goals, they are able to spread Dagoth Ur's influence across great distances, broadcasting His dream-influences to everyone in their reach. The mere presence of an Ascended Sleeper can cause every Sleeper and Dreamer cultist within the area to become possessed by the Sixth House even from far away, and those possessed will be unable to be freed from their dreams unless the creature is completely destroyed. All but the very strongest warriors, sorcerers, and mages must take great caution when confronting an Ascended Sleeper; deceptively unaggressive and slow, Ascended Sleepers posses a terrifying mastery of the arcane arts, able to cast extremely powerful and destructive spells in quick succession with little trouble. In addition to their arsenal of magic, Ascended Sleepers have reached full control of the divine seed implanted into their bodies, and as such are capable of enormous feats of strength and endurance. They shrug off all but the mightiest blows, and posses enough strength in their deceptively atrophied limbs to send a fully-grown warrior flying. Because of their incredible intelligence, strength, and magical power, they are feared even by the elite orders of the Ordinators and Buoyant Armigers, but not even the gristly rumors do them justice. Ascended Sleepers are always feared more by those who have encountered one once before. 55 pts per model. Elite.

They prey in the night like demons. They follow the blight storms, walk in the storms, bring death, disease. Hunters won't hunt, herders won't herd. Scared to go out on the land. Ahemmusa are people of peace, not of war. We fight, we die; we don't fight, we die. We must have help, or there will be nothing left.''" Not everyone blessed with Lord Dagoth's gift of divinity reaches towards the stages of an Ash cultist. In fact, most people aren't able to control the blessing, and as a result it will ravage their minds and bodies. Native Dunmer call it a disease: 'soul sickness' or 'corprus disease'. The effects of corprus on it's victims vary from person to person, for some people the progress goes by very quickly and painfully, while for others it's very slow. The bodies of all victims however, will eventually twist and grow in unnatural ways, large flesh growths appear all over their bodies. The skin turns pale-white and flesh falls off and grows back in a rapid rate. This victim is known as a Corprus Stalker. The mind of the corprus stalker will slowly detoriate and become more and more demented, until it is reduced to a mindless, demented creature. As a result of corprus however, they've become immortal, doomed to wander aimlessly in a demented state for eternity. Dunmer families who've had a family member infected with corprus disease usually send them to the Corprusarium of Telvanni Lord Divayth Fyr. Here they remain in safety, and are calmed down by music. Corprus stalkers aren't harmless however. Great care must be taken in approaching them because their dementia renders them very aggressive, furthermore their bodies have become extremely tough as a result of the corprus disease. Crazed humanoid creatures roam the region inside the ghostfence, and the ashlands around it. Appearing from nowhere during the red blight storms, killing off people and lifestock. Great risk comes with fighting these creatures as one can become infected with crippling blight diseases and even runs the risk of catching corprus and turning into a corprus stalker himself. Most frightening of all is the fact that Corprus Stalkers seem able to be controlled by Sixth House cultists, obeying their master's every whim. 11 pts per model. Support.

Trooper went mad, turned into a fat, beast with sores and flabby chunks of flesh hanging off. Then he dropped dead, just like that. You can't make me go anywhere near that fort.''" Victims struck by Corprus Disease will become incredibly deformed, their minds and bodies twisted beyond imagination. A victim quickly becomed aggressive, demented, and dangerous enough to be called a Corprus Stalker, but in this stage the disease is just beginning to wreak havoc actoss the victim's body. In the advanced stage of corprus, the skeletal structure will start to twist and flesh will fall off and grow back in an ever-faster rate until their bodies are swollen greatly out of proportion. These creatures are known as Lame Corprus. Even besides the dangerous blight and corprus diseases it can spread upon contact, and often being controlled by Sixth House cultists, the Lame Corprus is a creature to be greatly feared by peasants and warriors alike. Stumbling into camps and villages during the raging blight storms, they will murder and slaughter anything they can get their diseased claws upon. The corprus disease greatly increases the strength of the former Corprus Stalkers, making the advanced victims of the disease incredibly dangerous opponents, able to rip fully-grown men in pieces like savage animals. 25 pts per model.

Corprus Beasts are those whom the blight has reduced to freakish abominations. There is nothing which is at once both so pitiful and so terrible to behold as they. As Corprus infection progresses, it mutates the afflicted in ever more horrible and unnatural ways. Their flesh both decays and regenerates at once, becoming ever and ever more cancerous. Their forms are twisted and corrupted beyond all recognition, growing ever more strange and monstrous. There is no limit to which the Divine Disease might deform their bodies, and as such no two of the afflicted are ever quite the same; some might be mutated into hulking beasts with unnatural strength, others might be reduced to little more than perforated mounds of flesh or puddles of cancer. The degradation of afflicteds' flesh is matched only by that of their minds. Nothing is left of who they once were. Where once there were the thoughts of an intelligent being, now not even madness remains. Nothing is left in those afflicted with such advanced stages of Corprus save for hunger; hunger and malice.

There is more then just the red hue of light, and moldy scent, but also the faint, hushed noise of song imagined by no mortal. Upon the light of moons, this same song can be heard near Ash Statues of the Sixth House. It through this poisonous, jarring sound that the members of House Dagoth worship and grow closer to their lord. The combination of wails and tintinnabulation have profound effects on mortals, especially those who have never been exposed to the sinister aspect of House Dagoth. Confusion and terror seep into ones mind, ushering and begging them to perform vile deeds, tugging away at their sanity. During large skirmishes or battles the Sixth House will construct a mighty bianzhong to take with their forces. Dragged by hordes of dunmer and Ash Slaves, the instrument is brought directly to the field of war, and then set upon by a handful of Bell Ringers; Ash Zombies nearing the next stage of ascendancy. These ringers seemingly become possessed, striking at the bells in fits of ecstasy and fervor. Ash creatures and fellow initiates delight in the proceeding song. The exact opposite effect is had on formations of men, who quickly give into despair as they behold the reveling Sixth House. Support.

Perhaps we shall never know. But as I have sympathy for you, and the melancholy fate of all mortals, I shall weep for your death.''" Sharmat and Dream-sleeved inversion, Dagoth Ur once served as the Lord High Councilor of the Sixth House in an age lost past. Now, in this new era, he returns as its god. The Dreamer is awake, and the Sixth House wakes with him. From beneath Red Mountain, Dagoth Ur and his ash vampires returned to the waking world, and as their first act toward setting the world aright, they reclaimed the Heart of Lorkhan, preventing the Tribunal from restoring their profane power. The Pretenders of the Tribunal have proven that they were not worthy of the Heart. See what the they have done. The Tribunal, like ghouls, fed on the nobility, heroism, and trust of their king. They lied to their people, hiding their foul murder of Nerevar and the true source of their profane Divinity. They've sacrificed the honor and dignity of the Dunmer race, and handed over their ancient land to the mongrel dogs of the Empire. But now the Heart has a new master. Whereas the Tribunal guarded the Heart with jealousy and secret, selfish greed, Dagoth Ur shares the power he has from the Heart to help free his mortals from their ancient fears of the gods. As a mortal, Lord Voryn Dagoth was the the friend, brother, and closest shield-companion of the Hortator, Lord Nerevar Indoril, in peace and in war. No houseman ever served Nerevar better or more faithfully. Much that Dagoth Ur did was at his command, at great cost to himself, and his honor. Yet beneath Red Maintain, Nerevar struck down his loyal servant and friend, for the sole crime of guarding that which Nerevar himself had bound him by oath to defend. It was a cruel blow and a bitter betrayal. But it was not the end. Now Dagoth Ur and his house have returned, coming forth to free Morrowind of foreign rulers and divine pretenders. Dagoth Ur shall free the Dunmer from the Imperial yoke, and cast down the false gods of the Temple. He will lead them out of their ancient superstitions, and gift them with intimate knowledge of the divine. Through the power of Akulakhan, Second Numidium, Dagoth Ur shall liberate first Vvardenfell, then Morrowind, and then the rest of Tamriel from the Mongrel armies of the Empire. Through the power of the Heart, Dagoth Ur shall liberate all mortals from ancient superstitions, and glorify their crusade against the gods. In time, every mortal in Tamriel shall feel the liberating contact with the divine. Who knows what we might be capable of once we no longer fear death? Go unto the Sharmat Dagoth Ur as a friend.
