Scrollhammer: Order of the Black Worm

I'll start working on this later. Eventually. Maybe. --Dagoth Guy 15:26, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Introduction

History

Mannimarco and Galerion

Summary:

1. Mannimarco lived on the island Artaeum, the third largest island in the Summerset archipelago.
2. Mannimarco was said to be highly intelligent, as was his fellow student Vanus Galerion, founder of the Mages Guild. Galerion had a "light and warm" heart, while Mannimarco unsurprisingly had a "dark and cold" heart.
3. Mannimarco used necromancy and trapped souls even while studying.
4. Galerion eventually confronted Mannimarco about his use of necromancy beneath the Ceporah Tower. Mannimarco ignored Galerion's warning.
5. Mannimarco was later sent to Tamriel by his masters, either on an undescribed errand or as a rather feeble punishment for his dark interests. Regardless, he used the opportunity to gather followers and spread his vile practices.
6. Galerion left for the mainland as well, disgusted by the short-sighted ways of the Psijic Sages, determined to both curtail Mannimarco and set up a new occult organization.
7. Mannimarco's evil began spreading throughout Tamriel and he gathered a following of Necromancers.
8. He became the first lich. It is not specified if he was the first lich ever or the first humanoid to make the transformation. He lost his body and mind; he became a living, moving corpse. His blood became acid, and all manner of repulsive things happened to him.
9. Galerion left the Mages Guild, calling it "a morass" of political infighting and tortuous bureaucracy.
10. Galerion attacked Mannimarco in a great battle, where he called Mannimarco "The Worm King".
11. Mannimarco began to unleash incredibly powerful death spells. However, he felt his depraved powers fail, and the battle was won by the Guild. Approximately a thousand men total died in the battle, Galerion included, and it appeared that Mannimarco had died as well.

Arkay the Enemy

Once Mannimarco too was a but a lowly mortal, but through his will, he entered the ranks of the gods. Now, he seeks to share his glory with those who would call themselves his faithful.

Most Necromancers are fools and weaklings. Fodder for the witchhunters. But those who serve the Order of the Black Worm, they are the chosen of the Worm King. In the days to come, few will dare to stand against their might. But one obstacle remains. His name is Arkay.

He was also a man who entered the ranks of the gods. The similarities between his mortal life and Mannimarco are nothing short of astonishing. It is only proper that they should be enemies.

Arkay's Blessing prevents the souls of men, beastmen, and elves from being used without consent. Arkay's Law prevents those buried with the proper rituals from being raised to serve the practitioners of the Black Arts. It is well known that Arkay's Blessing is flexible to those with daring, but Arkay's Law is unwavering.

Even now the Order of the Black Worm prepares and bides its time. Its Scholars befriend kings with honeyed words and bind them to their will. Its Priests send missionaries to the unbound dead, so that all the nations of dead might carry His banner and His banner alone. And the Hidden, as always, wait in the darkness.

For soon the time will come when they shall strike. The Temples of Arkay will be torn stone from stone. The blood of his priests will sate the Order's thirst; their bones will rise as its servants. The name Arkay will be struck from the records. Only He shall hold sway over life and death. Only one name shall be whispered in fear. The name of the Order's lord and master; Mannimarco, the King of Worms.

The following book contains the rules necessary to field an Order of the Black Worm army in games of Scrollhammer.

General Rules

Shade of the Revenant: A model with this rule is able to use Soul Trap on Common Race models.

Undead Racial Traits:

Undead are Fearless.

Lumbering Walk: Undead cannot March.

Unburdened by Life: Undead have Feel No Pain, Immune to Poison, and are unaffected by disease. They are not mortals.

Sload Racial Traits:

Dread Sorcerers: Sloads get +1 to all attempts at casting spells.

Stoic Deliberation: At the beginning of the game, after all deployment, including Infiltrators and Scout re-deployment, mark each unit in which the majority of the models are Sloads. As long as the majority of the models in a unit marked in this way are Sloads, that unit is Stubborn, and may choose to automatically fail any Morale test if it so desires.

Corpulence: Sloads cannot March. While in water Sloads have a 6" movement rate, but while on land their movement rate is reduced to 2".

Diseases

Disease: Whenever a model is attacked by a model with the Disease special rule, roll 1d6. on a roll of 6, the attacked model contracts that disease. Once one model in a unit has contracted a disease, any further disease rolls only cause more instances of the first disease the unit contracted.

Disease List:

Chills: Disease. An extremely dangerous disease affecting the victim's mind and coordination. Symptoms include clumsiness and mental confusion. Models that have been infected by Chills are afflicted with -1 Initiative until cured.

Brown Rot: Disease. A mild disease affecting the victim's strength and behavior. Symptoms include necrosis and sleeplessness. Models that have been infected by Brown Rot are afflicted with -1 Strength until cured.

Astral Vapors: Disease. An acute disease that can be contracted from magical creatures such as undead or golems. It has no physical symptoms, but it adversely affects your Magicka while making you more vulnerable to the magical attacks of others. Models that have been infected by Astral Vapors are afflicted with -1 Magicka until cured.

Crimson Plague: Disease. [Insert description here]. Models that have been infected by Crimson Plague are afflicted with -1 Initiative and -1 Attack to a minimum of 1 until cured.

Carrion Worms: Disease. A parasite that devours the flesh of those it has infested and will occasionally crawl out of its host by eating a hole in its skin. Models that have been infected with Carrion Worms are afflicted with -1 Strength until cured. Models that have been infected with Carrion Worms must also perform a Leadership test every turn until cured, the failure of which will cause them to be afflicted with -1 Weapon Skill and -1 Ballistic Skill for the remainder of that turn. Models that fail the Leadership test must also perform a Fear check.

Slug Famine: ????? (Was the disease that caused the Thrassian Plague, which was basically Tamriel's version of the Black Death, so maybe symptoms similar to bubonic plague?)

Corpse Counts

• The Corpse Counts may freely be accessed by all players
• For every model that dies on the table top, the Corpse Counts increase.
• When ever a Corpse Count is used to create undead, the count used is reduced by the number of undead created.

Fresh Corpse Count

• Most living models will add to the Fresh Corpse Count when they die. This includes all Common Races as well as some others, such as Falmer.
• The Fresh Corpse Count may be used to create "fleshy" undead (Zombies, Mummies, Bonewalkers, Draugr, etc.).

Decayed Corpse Count

• When a fleshy undead model dies, it adds to the Decayed Corpse Count.
• The Decayed Corpse Count may be used to create skeletal undead (Skeletons, Skeleton Champions, Bonelords, etc.).
• Skeletal undead do not add to the Corpse Counts when slain.

Lich

Unbound by the needs and the weaknesses of flesh, Liches were once great necromancers who sought to gain immortality by turning themselves undead through using spells and rituals. The intricacies of such a transformation are both complex and esoteric, and one must be a maverick arcanist in order even understand such a process, let alone properly execute it. The most common fate of those who seek lichdom is to waste years on fruitless research before simply giving up out of sheer frustration. For necromancers less cautious in their experimentation, death is not uncommon. There are some, however, who do not fail in achieving what the seek, who have the intellect and determination necessary to solve the Riddle of Life and Death. Those necromancers who succeed in their quest to transcend mortality become Liches, the Eternal Archimandrites of the Order of the Black Worm. All Liches are powerful spellcasters, and can resists various attacks. Liches are notoriously difficult to destroy, due to both the protective enchantments they carry and the unspeakable soul-binding magicks that anchor them to the mortal world. It is rumoured that the most powerful and ancient of Liches can not be stopped even by death, that their spirit persists after the destruction of their body so that they might return to wreak havoc in a new form.

Sload Warlock

A powerful race of necromancers hailing from the Coral Kingdom of Thrass, the Sload are a force to be feared. Sworn enemies of the Altmer, they have plagued the Summerset Isles for centuries. They are perhaps most famous for the Thrassian Plague, a disease unleashed hundreds of years ago which led to the suffering and death of one-third of the inhabitants of Tamriel. These loathsome arcanists are masters in the spells of necromancy and teleportation, as well as other, forbidden magicks that are feared and shunned by other races. The Sload as a whole have no grasp of pity, altruism, or loyalty to anyone but themselves. They are willing to bypass any morals or laws to further advance themselves in the field of magic. Keen with flight technology, they are another race that has developed advanced airships.

Core

Skeletons

Throughout Tamriel, the long-dead lurk in the shadows, only bones remaining, but nevertheless moving with mysterious unlife. Many of these skeletons are servants of necromancers; others, damned souls cursed to walk Nirn even after all their flesh has rotted away. But all are silent, mindless killers, deserving no pity from the living.

4 pts per model.

Core. Horde, Infantry, Undead. 10-40 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Name	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld	Mg	Sv
Skeleton	3	3	2	2	1	2	1	5	0	-

Wargear: Skeletons carry a Hand Weapon and Shield.

Special rules:

Skeletons cause Fear.

The entire unit may replace its Hand Weapons and Shields with:

• Short Bow (free)
• Longbow (free)
• Spear and Shield (+1 pts/model)

Zombies

Rotting corpses imbued with a false mockery of life, Zombies are often raised by Necromancers as expendable servants and soldiers. Zombies are not generally considered to be very dangerous, due to their slow gait and relative weakness. This is no reason to underestimate them, however, as hordes of such creatures can overwhelm even the greatest of warriors, and they are known to carry a multitude of infectious diseases.

4 pts per model.

Core. Horde, Infantry, Undead. 10-40 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Ghosts

Called upon and bound to the of service of a Necromancer, Ghosts were once mortals, but are now trapped between here and Aetherius. They exist as spirits only, but are more than capable of causing harm to those that they attack. Although relatively weak, the incorporeal nature of such beings makes them difficult and disturbing foes indeed.

4 pts per model.

Core. Horde, Infantry, Undead. 10-60 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Name	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld	Mg	Sv

Wargear: none

Special Rules:

Ghostly: Ghostly models ignore difficult and dangerous terrain. They are Ethereal(see the Scrollhammer rulebook) and Immune to Frost.

Elites

Skeleton Champions

Created through more potent and time-consuming reanimation rituals, Skeleton Champions are far stronger than their lesser undead brethren. Knowing no fear, no pain, no rest, no compassion nor doubt, Skeleton Champions are implacable warriors that will stop at nothing to fulfill their master's ever order.

~21 pts per model.

Elite. Skirmish, Infantry, Undead. 6-16 models per unit.

Revenant	3	3	3	4	2	3	1	8	3	-

Wargear: Hand Weapon

Spells: Frostbite

Revenants cause Fear.

• a Shield +2pts per model
• Lower Resists +4pts per model
• Magicka Drain +6pts per model
• Icy Spear +6pts per model

Any number of Revenants may each be given the following:

• Light Mail(6+) +3pts per model

Wraiths

Creatures seemingly wrought from pure shadow, the presence of a Wraith is preceded by a an almost palpable sense of dread. Wraiths are the spirits of long dead mages, trapped into this state either by the circumstances surrounding their death, or by being called up from the dead by a more powerful Wizard. Less than pleased with being denied their after life, Wraiths carry with them an unrelenting hatred for this plane of existence. So great is their malice towards the living that controlling them is less an issue of telling them what to kill, but what not to.

? pts per model.

The entire unit may be upgraded to:

• Gloom Wraiths +? pts per model

Mummies

There is far more that a Necromancer can create from a corpse than a mere Zombie. By soaking a fresh body in a bath of salts for a month and wraping it in linen, a Necromancer can preserve a corpse against decay. By ritually reanimating and imbuing a corpse prepared this way with stronger magicks, a necromancer might create a Mummy. Such creatures are not only stronger and more durable than lesser undead, but also more independent and understanding of orders. Barring damage or heavy use, a Mummy can serve its master almost indefinately.

Support

Necromancer Cabal

Necromancy is all too often a taboo and shunned school of magic, it's practitioners feared and reviled by the common people in most lands; Only in Alinor and the Imperial Province are the Black Arts practiced openly. In order to avoid persecution of their works, those mages and sorcerers who would wish to learn and study Necromancy must do so in secret, away from the ignorant fears and inhibitions of populated areas. Hiding themselves in caves and ancient ruins, Necromancers will often organize themselves into small cabals, so that they might benefit from a collective security and work together in their dark research. Such cabals form the main body of the Order of the Black Worm, comprising the vast majority of its members.

~12 pts per model.

Support. Skirmish, Infantry, Imperial. 10-20 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Name	WS	BS	S	T	W	I	A	Ld	Mg	Sv

The Emissary may take an additional appropriate spell(cast on 13+ or lower), or a spell from the school of Mysticism(cast on 13+ or lower) from the armory for +5 pts.

Worm Anchorites

There are those among the ranks of the Order of the Black Worm that see necromancy not merely as an art, but as a religion; Those who have accepted the words of the King of Worms, and realized the true potential of necromancy as a path to transcendence. Powerful in the Black Arts and wise in the teachings of Mannimarco, Worm Anchorites are the priests and curates of the Order. These dark sorcerers fully devote themselves to the mastery of their craft, ever seeking to become closer to their god.

~30 pts per model.

Support. Skirmish, Infantry, Imperial. 3-6 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Worm Anchorites may take up to 16 points of magic items from the armory where appropriate.

Unliving Beasts

While the Arts of Necromancy can be practiced on animals, such experiments rarely produce interesting results. The servant's ability to follow directions seems to be related to the subject's intelligence in life. While raising the corpse of a man, elf, or beastman can produce a useful servant, the corpses of animals produce mere guard dogs at best. Often a raised animal is unable to distinguish its master from the rest of the living and many amateur practitioners have been torn apart by the animal servants they created.

~7 pts per model.

Support. Horde, Beasts, Undead. 10-20 models per unit.

25mm x 25mm base.

Wargear: Claws, Teeth

Special rules: Frenzy

Unliving Beasts cause Fear.

Thrassian Plaguewrights

The slug-men of Thrass are infamous for their skill at creating and manipulating disease. Indeed, it was none other than the sload who were responsible for the outbreak of the Thrassian Plague, a devastating pandemic which wiped out more than half the population of Tamriel. Plaguewrights are sload sorcerers who have taken up the art of epidemic magicks, seeking control over the spread of all forms of pestilence. They dedicate their time to concocting and studying diseases, and are always on the lookout for new test subjects to practice their experiments on.

? pts per model.

Support. Skirmish, Infantry, Sload. 3-6 models per unit.

The Fleshshaper may take up to 20 points of magic items from the armory where appropriate.

Worm Eremites

The process of becoming a Worm Eremite, the unliving martyrs of the Order of the Black Worm, is only undertaken by the most devoted and reverent of Mannimarco's followers. A creature very similar to a Lich, a Worm Eremite retains all the intellect and magickal potency they had once possessed in life. There is, however, one key factor which separates them from Liches; They lack free will. Worm Eremites are bound undead, meaning that they are forever compelled to serve the one who created them. For the Worm Eremites, however, this is not a curse or a scourge, but a blessing. Created by and beholden to only Liches and greatest of living Necromancers, Worm Eremites have bound themselves into a state in which they might never cease their sacred duty to the Order of the Black Worm, and to their eternal service to their God.

~55 pts per model.
