The Oblivion Crisis was masterminded by a single despicable traitor: Mankar Camoran. The embittered yet resolute descendant of a deposed Elven dynasty, Camoran searched deep into forbidden lore for a means to knowledge and power. Declaring the Eight and One Divines to be impostors, he taught to his disciples that the Missing God Lorkhan was the final Daedric Prince; that Nirn was the rightful domain of the powers of Oblivion. Thus he forged a pact with Mehrunes Dagon, that he and his servants would give the mortal world over to the Prince of Destruction in exchange for immortality. His cultists murdered the final Septim emperor, and seized the Amulet of Kings. With all the pieces in place, the barrier between Mundus and Oblivion was broken, and an infinite tide of Daedra flowed forth into the realm of mortals. | The Oblivion Crisis was masterminded by a single despicable traitor: Mankar Camoran.

Revision as of 04:38, 28 April 2012
by Lolpwnt
Daedra Cults are the armies of the great Daedric Princes who rule the realms of Oblivion, and the mortal worshippers who summon demonic hordes to do their bidding. Included are the rules for fielding this army in Scrollhammer.
General Rules
Daedra Racial Traits:
Daedra are Fearless and have Eternal Warrior, and are unaffected by disease.
Otherworldly: Daedra get a 4+ Ward Save against non-magical attacks. Silver and Daedric weapons ignore this effect. Daedra cannot be affected by Beast Tongue and Command spells unless a rule states otherwise.
Summon: Daedra can be summoned by certain spells. A summoned Daedra deep strikes within 6" of the summoning model once the spell is cast, and can move and assault as normal the turn it is summoned. A summoned Daedra fights as a single model, but may join caster's unit as an independent character. If the Daedra is slain, it may be summoned again. Summoned Daedra do not grant kill points or hold objectives, and are part of the summoner's profile on the Force Org chart unless otherwise noted. Summoned models are always taken with no upgrades, and each model may only have one summoned model at any given time.
Atronach: An Atronach is an elemental golem native to the realms of Oblivion. Atronachs are unable to hold objectives.
Army List
Types of Lists
A Daedra Cults army may be taken using one of three lists, representing the various types of Daedric armies in existence. One Hero choice is nominated as the army's general. Which model is the general determines what will be contained in the list. Certain models become 0-1 depending on the makeup of the army. Special Characters which are allowed for a list can replace the required nominated general and still use the same list. Special Character may not be used outside the list they are nominated for.
Cult Army
Heroes: Sorcerer-Priest w/ retinue, allowed special characters. 0-1 total of any other Hero choices.
Core: 1+ Cultist Covens, Flame Atronachs. 0-1 of each other Core choice.
Elite: Frost Atronachs, Storm Atronachs. 0-1 of each other Elite choice.
Support: 0-1 of each Support choice.
Special Characters: Mankar Camoran w/ retinue, Umbra, Champion of Boethiah w/ retinue
Certain Daedra are associated with a specific Daedric Prince. If the cult worships that Prince, those Daedra are do not have the regular 0-1 restriction.
Daedric Army
Heroes: Dremora Lord, allowed special characters. 0-1 total of any other Hero choices.
Core: Scamps, Dremora Warriors, Flame Atronachs, 0-1 of each other Core choice.
Elite: Aurorans, Daedroths, Frost Atronachs, Storm Atronachs, 0-1 of each other Elite choice.
Support: Clannfears, Hungers, Spider Daedra, Winged Twilights, Xivilai, Siege Crawler.
Special Characters: Mankar Camoran w/ retinue, Mehrunes Dagon, Umaril the Unfeathered, Jyggalag
Sheogoric Army
Heroes: Golden Saint Pelaurig OR Dark Seducer Grakedrig, allowed special characters. 0-1 total of any other Hero choices, including Pelaurigs/Grakedrigs when the other type is the general. Cultist retinues must serve Sheogorath.
Core: Golden Saints(if Pelaurig is general) OR Dark Seducers(if Grakedrig is general), Flame Atronachs, 0-1 of each other Core choice(including Saints/Seducers if the one of the other type is the general). Cultist Covens must serve Sheogorath.
Elite: Frost Atronachs, Storm Atronachs, Flesh Atronachs, allowed special characters. 0-1 total of any other Elite choice.
Support: Clannfears, Hungers, Spider Daedra, Winged Twilights, Xivilai, Siege Crawler.
Special Characters: Sheogorath, The Gatekeeper.
Daedra Cultists
Cultists are the mortal pawns of the Daedric Princes, erecting shrines on Mundus by which to commune with them, and performing rituals by which to summon them.
All the cultists in your army, of all units and types, must be declared as dedicated to a single Daedric Prince in the army list. This gives them access to unique spells, the ability to summon Daedra associated with that Prince, special bonuses, and access to that Prince's artifacts as described in the Artifacts of Tamriel supplement. A Daedric Prince's associated Daedra are not 0-1 in a Cult Army.
Two Cultist unit types may be formed.
Priest with Retinue (Hero): 1 Sorcerer-Priest or High Priest with retinue of 4-9 Sorcerers and Blackguards.
Coven (Core): 1 Sorcerer or Blackguard (unit leader) with 9-19 Cultists and Minions, and 0-10 Initiates.
Priest and Coven are both 0-1 unless the Priest is nominated as your general, in the case of a cult army.
The Daedric Princes and their Blessings
Not all Daedric Princes are represented in this army list. The units relevant to some Princes are found in other lists. When a player decides to run any Cult units in his army, he must decide which of the Daedric Princes his army will be dedicated to:
Azura, Prince of Dusk and Dawn
Azura is among the friendlier Daedra to mortals. Appearing in the form of a beautiful woman, she embodies aesthetically pleasing and sublime ideals. She is a major figure in Dunmer religion, having guided the Nerevarine on his quest against the Sixth House.
Azura favors Winged Twilights. Her unique spell is Light of Dawn. Her artifact is Azura's Star. You may reroll three mana dice per game for spells being cast by Azura worshipers.
Boethiah, Prince of Plots and Ambition
Boethiah is among the more evil of the Daedra, but is thought well of by the Dunmer. Appearing as either a woman or a man, but always wielding a mighty weapon and a flowing cape, Boethiah embodies the idea that Might makes Right. Treachery, rebellion, and battles to the death are indulged in by Boethiah's followers, that whoever might be able to seize power should have it.
Boethiah favors Hungers. His/Her artifact is Goldbrand. Boethiah's followers have access to the Special Character Boethiah's Champion. Boethiah's followers have +1 WS, +1 S, and +1 Ld. Any cult unit of Boethiah's, if further than 6" from the enemy and containing more than 1 model, must make an Ld check at the beginning of each of your turns. If the test fails, the unit does nothing this turn, and each model attacks in close combat this turn, except blows are scored against his own unit. This can never reduce a unit to less than one model. If the unit is reduced to one model this way, that model is healed fully and gifted with +1T +2W +1A +2Mg and becomes an Independent character for the remainder of the battle.
Clavicus Vile, Prince of Deals and Wishes
Clavicus Vile is a horned Daedra accompanied by his talking dog, Barbas. While appearing harmless on the outside, Clavicus Vile is heartless on the inside. Foolish mortals go to him to make pacts, asking that their wishes come true in exchange for a service rendered. Upon completing their service, they find that their reward is not necessarily what they had hoped for...
Clavicus Vile's artifact is the Bitter Cup. Once per game, each unit of Clavicus Vile's mortal followers may attempt to use a wish from him. Declare a wish when you use one, and roll a d6:
If the unit is fleeing, it may wish for courage before rolling their fleeing move. On a 4+, it rallies. On a 1-3, it becomes courageous without abandon, and throws itself at the enemy, fleeing instead towards the enemy's table edge until it rallies or is destroyed.
At the beginning of your movement phase, the leader of the unit may wish for a weapon or armor of incredible destruction. On a 4+, his weapon or armor (your choice) becomes Daedric for the rest of the game. On a 1-3, his weapon destroys him with an incredible explosion; he is removed as a casualty.
At the beginning of your movement phase, the unit may wish to become invisible. On a 4+, your unit gains Stealth(+2), applying even in combat. On a 1-3, they become invisible, but only to one another, and in a state of sheer panic must immediately flee. If in combat, the enemy may attempt to pursue it as normal.
At the beginning of your movement phase, the unit may wish to appear terrifying. On a 4+, the unit causes Terror for the rest of the game. On a 1-3, the unit appears in a manner so terrifying that they terrify themselves; the unit must immediately pass a morale test or flee(even out of combat, pursued as normal), and each model must take an Ld test on his own value, and is removed as a casualty if he fails. After this, their appearance reverts to normal, they play out the rest of the game as normal.
At the beginning of the game, before you deploy, the unit may wish for good luck. On a 4+, it gains 3 free rerolls it can spend at any time during the game. On a 1-3, it has the good luck of getting lost on the way and not having to die in the battle: it is immediately removed from the game and considered a casualty.
At the beginning of the game, before you deploy, the unit may wish to make an unusually complicated deal with Clavicus Vile. Do not roll the d6 immediately. The unit may make up to two wishes, instead of one, after the game begins. When the first wish is made, roll the d6 for this deal. On a 4+, the unit gets both wishes. On a 1-3, Clavicus Vile decided to give them the short of the deal: their rolls for both wishes are automatic 1's.
If the unit loses a combat, it may wish for survival. On a 4+, the unit does not flee and may immediately make a second series of attacks against the enemy, without being hit back. On a 1-3, the unit is allowed to survive as the enemy's prisoners: it is removed as a casualty.
If the unit has a disease, it may wish for a cure. On a 4+, it is cured. On a 1-3, nothing happens: the "cure" is whatever enemy eventually kills them!
Hermaeus Mora, Prince of Forbidden Knowledge
A strange entity of inscrutable form and motives, Hermaeus Mora is the most secretive of the Daedra. All knowledge in existence is said to be within the libraries of lost tomes in his realm, hidden from the mortal world. It is utterly unknowable how much power he has attained, or what plans he has made over the aeons that men and mer have lived, breathed, fought and died.
Hermaeus Mora's artifact is the Oghma Infinium. Followers of Hermaeus Mora who can buy spells may take an additional spell to the ones they already have, have +1 Mg, and use mana successfully on a 3+. If multiple 1's are rolled on one of their attempts to cast spells, however, one of the casting models goes insane, and is removed as a casualty for every two 1's rolled.
Mehrunes Dagon, Prince of Destruction and Change
Mehrunes Dagon is the mightiest of the lords of Oblivion, who desires nothing more than the conquest and destruction of the mortal world. During the Oblivion Crisis at the end of the Fourth Era, Dagon led his army into the Imperial City to destroy the Empire of Tamriel forever. Were it not for the sacrifice of Martin Septim, mortalkind would forever be enslaved to the most monstrous of masters.
Mehrunes Dagon favors Scamps and Xivilai. His artifact is Mehrunes Razor. His followers have access to the special character Mankar Camoran. Mortal servants of Mehrunes Dagon who can buy spells may take an additional Destruction spell to the spells they already have.
Mephala, the Webspinner
Appearing as a crooked-shaped hermaphrodite, Mephala spins webs of treachery and lies, murder and adultery. She is honored by the Morag Tong of Morrowind as the patron of assassins, but her influence stretches across all Tamriel.
Mephala favors Spider Daedra. His/Her artifact is the Ebony Blade. A mortal army which worships her steals the initiative on a 4+ through their cunning.
Meridia, Prince of Light and Living Things
Little is known concerning this winged goddess. Her hatred for the undead is matched only by her secretiveness. Her reputation among mortals is favorable for her willingness to fight the hordes of the damned who wander the caverns of Tamriel, yet her servants the Aurorans cast their lot against mankind, fighting for Umaril the Unfeathered in the days of his return.
Meridia favors Aurorans. Her artifacts are the Ring of the Khajiiti and Dawnbreaker. Her mortal servants have Preferred Enemy(Undead) and re-roll failed morale tests.
Molag Bal, Prince of Schemes and Enslavement
The most dreaded and most unholy of all the fiends of Oblivion is Molag Bal, the King of Rape. An utterly malignant entity, Molag Bal seeks only to enslave mortals, or to corrupt and damn them for eternity. Vampires are his spawn, and souls are his currency. Woe betide the fool who trifles with him.
Molag Bal favors Daedroths. His unique spell is Bal's Temptation. His artifact is the Mace of Molag Bal. Followers of Molag Bal have the Frenzy universal special rule.
Namira, Prince of Ancient Darkness
The shrouded female figure of Namira is filled with horrors unimaginable. Namira is the goddess of all that is vile, repulsive, unnatural, disgusting and wretched. Namira's followers indulge in urges of the darkest sort, and revel in the hatred they draw in from those appalled at the extent of their evil.
Namira's unique spell is Namira's Touch. Her artifact is the Ring of Namira. Her followers have Feel No Pain, but your opponent's units which are not Monstrous Creatures, Daedra or Undead have Preferred Enemy when rolling to hit them.
Peryite, the Taskmaster
Peryite orders the lowest realms of Oblivion. He takes the form of a dragon to mock Akatosh, yet is far too weak to be worthy of such an image. Peryite obsesses over the smallest of details in everything, take the utmost precaution to all he presides over.
Peryite's unique spell is Peryite's Reordering. His artifact is Spellbreaker. Peryite's worshippers are carriers of a Disease which does not effect your units. At the end of each player turn, all enemy units within 3" of a Peryite Cultist unit are infected on a 6+, and from starting at the end of the next player turn the infection spreads on a 4+ within 3" of them. After infections are determined at the end of turn, d3 models in each infected unit take a toughness test. For each failure, that model takes a wound with no saves allowed.
Sanguine, Prince of Revels
Sanguine is a jolly yet perverse daedra who embodies the philosophy of hedonism. Tempting mortals with their guiltiest desires, he leads them to live lives of debauchery and excess.
Sanguine's artifact is the Sanguine Rose. Sanguine's followers have -1 Ld, but his Covens may take up to 30 Initiates per unit for only 2 pts per model.
Sheogorath, The Mad God
Sheogorath is insane. It is said that nobody but himself can guess his motives, but even he's wrong about them half the time. Sheogorath and his followers are utterly unpredictable, to an almost comic extent, but can be just as dangerous and evil as they are foolish. Many have sought to be granted powers from Sheogorath, only to find themselves going mad in due time.
Sheogorath favors Golden Saints and Dark Seducers, although any particular cultist army may only choose one. He also favors Flesh Atronachs, which can be taken as familiars by certain cult members. Sheogorath's artifacts are the Spear of Bitter Mercy, Dawnfang, and Wabbajack. His worshipers may be up to 4" apart and still be in coherency. Each unit of worshipers must take a Leadership check at the beginning of each game turn. If they fail, their sanity slips away, and they must roll a d6:
1 The cultists fall into a gibbering fit of dementia. They cannot do anything, even fight, this game turn.
2 The cultists enter a psychotic rage. They have Rage, Fleet of Foot, and Frenzy, and cannot cast spells or shoot, this game turn.
3 The cultists weep miserably over trivial matters. They have -1 Ld this game turn.
4 The cultists run wild, doing strange and random things. They gain Hit and Run and Furious Charge, but have -1 WS -1 BS this game turn. They have Rage this game turn, except they can use Hit and Run.
5 The cultists become ecstatic over bright lights. On your player turn, randomly choose a spell capable of targeting the closest unit, friend or enemy, for each group of models in the unit with an identical spell list. The cultists automatically cast those spells on that unit(if a friendly unit, opponent chooses how to place templates) during the appropriate phases this turn, even if they are in close combat. They also can fight in close combat this game turn, but can do nothing else.
6 The cultists fall into a bliss of mania. They are Fearless and have Feel No Pain this game turn, but do not get a +Attacks charge or counter-attack from cover bonus.
Vaermina, Prince of Dreams and Nightmares
The world one enters in his dreams is the domain of Vaermina. Every horror, every surrealistic shock, is the power of Vaermina twisting the mind of mortals. Vaermina brings torment and hopelessness down upon mortals, even the smallest ripples of her power causing copious suffering the material world.
Vaermina's unique spell is Nightmare. Her artifact is the Skull of Corruption. Vaermina's mortal servants cause Terror, but are not immune to Fear or Terror.
Sorcerer Priests
Hero
A Sorcerer Priest may be any of the 10 common races of Tamriel. Sorcerer Priests must lead a unit of 4-9 Sorcerers and/or Blackguards (see 'Cultists' entry), and count as a single hero choice.

Special Characters
Mehrunes Dagon, Prince of Destruction
During the height of the Oblivion crisis, the lost heir Martin Septim used Mankar Camoran's own tome, the Mysterium Xarxes, to send a champion in pursuit of the treacherous sorcerer and reclaim the amulet of kings. But it was too late, for the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon himself had entered the material world. With countless Daedra in tow, he laid siege to the Imperial City. Centuries-old buildings shattered into dust while entire armies of mortals perished at the hands of the God of Entropy. It was only when Akatosh himself took form among the ruins that the mightiest of the Daedra was beaten back to the abyss from which he sprang.

Mankar Camoran, Prophet of Dagon
The Oblivion Crisis was masterminded by a single despicable traitor: Mankar Camoran. The embittered yet resolute descendant of a deposed Elven dynasty, Camoran searched deep into forbidden lore for a means to knowledge and power. Declaring the Eight and One Divines to be impostors, he taught to his disciples that the Missing God Lorkhan was the final Daedric Prince; that Nirn was the rightful domain of the powers of Oblivion.

Jyggalag, Prince of Order
Jyggalag is the sane half of Sheogorath's personality. A tall, armored figure of pale grey, Jyggalag and his servants seek infinite logic of all physical forms and total control over all thoughts. Jyggalag hates above all else the insanity and creativity he spreads as Sheogorath. Such is his power and tyranny, that he is only permitted by the other Daedra to manifest at the end of every era: it is then that he leads his host forward upon the Greymarch, cleansing all the folly he had created while bearing the mantle of Sheogorath. It is only after destroying the Madhouse that he finds himself once more losing his mind, slipping back again to becoming Sheogorath and raising up all that he had destroyed. Such is truly the extent of the Mad God's lunacy.

The Light That Burns(Aurorans only): Cost 1, 1-handed. May be used either as a spell or as a hand weapon. If a hand weapon, it deals Shock damage, and counts as a hand weapon for all other purposes(it cannot be dual wielded with another spell, though). If a spell, it allows the unit to reroll night fighting rolls, as well as having night fighting be rerolled against it.
Burden: Cost 2, opponents movement phase. Range 24", requires LOS. Target unit moves 1" slower per move, sprint and charge, and gets -1 to Sweeping advance rolls, this turn. Multiple instances do not stack.
Flame/Frost/Shock Repulsion: Cost 1, 1-handed, any time. Caster gets +2 to Ward Save (or a 5+ Ward Save if no such save already exists for him) against chosen element. Multiple instances per element do not stack.
Stoneflesh: Cost 2, 1-handed, any time. Caster gets +1 to his armor save this turn. Multiple instances do not stack.
Flame/Frost/Shock Shield: Cost 3, 1-handed, any time. Caster gets +1 to his armor save this turn, and gets a 4+ ward save against chosen element(flame/frost/shock). Multiple instances per element do not stack.
School of Illusion
Command Mortal: Cost 2. Cast during either player's shooting phase. Chose a mortal model other than a Monstrous Creature (one of the ten common races, a beast, or a creature of another mortal race, but never any Undead, Physical God, or Daedra) within 6". That model makes a Ld test on its own value. If it fails, it attacks the nearest model in its own unit (randomly picked if tied), and then is attacked back by that model, the following round of close combat. Those models fight each other: they cannot attack their enemies that round. May only be cast on a particular model once per turn.
Terrify: Cost 2, any time. Target unit within 6" gets -1 Ld until end of turn. Multiple instances do not stack.
Mindless Frenzy: Cost 2, assault phase. Target unit within 6" takes an Ld test. If it fails, and the unit is in close combat, their failed rolls to hit strike their own unit instead of missing this round.
Sound of Screams: Cost 3, your shooting phase. Range 18", requires LOS. Targets an enemy unit. That unit must score a roll of 6 on a mana die to successfully cast part of a spell until the beginning of your next turn.
Nightmare(Vaermina Cultists only): Cost 3, your shooting phase. Range 12", requires LOS. Target enemy unit not in melee combat must immediately pass a Morale check or flee. Can only affect any one unit once per turn.
Silence: Cost 3, your shooting phase, 1-handed. Range 12", requires LOS. Targets a single enemy model(for the purpose of this spell, monsters and each of their riders count as distinct models). That model takes an Mg test(using its base value) on 3d6. If he fails, he cannot cast spells until the beginning of your next turn.
Namira's Touch(Namira Cultists only): Cost 4, cast anytime. Select a unit within 6" of caster. Until the beginning of your next turn, that unit's WS and BS are reduced to 1.
Torments of Oblivion: Cost 5, cast anytime. Select a unit within 6" of caster. Until the beginning of your next turn, that unit's toughness is reduced to 1(instant death is still calculated using base toughness), and its armor save is reduced to "-".
Bal's Temptation(Molag Bal cultists only): Cost 7, cast during your movement phase. Select an enemy unit within 6" of caster. Every model in that unit must take an Ld test on its own value. Models that fail are removed from the game, and placed into reserve under your control for the rest of the game.
School of Mysticism
Soul Trap: Cost 1, 1-handed. Cast just as combat begins. If caster's attacks (nominate which ones are caster's) inflict a casualty, caster gets one free reroll to hit or to wound while using a magical weapon, for the duration of the game. Each additional Soul Trap requires an additional casualties to be dealt.
Dispel: Cost 2, cast anytime. Remove all ongoing magical effects from caster's unit.
Dispulsion: Cost 2, cast anytime. Range 18", requires LOS. Remove all ongoing magical effects from another target unit.
School of Restoration

Ward: Cost 2, 1-handed. Cast in response to an enemy spell which would target or immediately effect caster, caster's unit, or another one of caster's spells. Caster and the caster of the enemy spell roll d6's, and add their respective Mg values to them. If caster's final score is higher, he and his spells become immune to the effects of that spell for its duration. Hits resolved on him from the spell do nothing.
Light of Dawn(Azura Cultists only): Cost 2. Cast in response to an enemy spell which would target or immediately effect caster or caster's unit. Roll a d6. On a roll of 6, the spell is negated, and immediately recast by caster of Light of Dawn for free against the enemy unit which originally cast it(even if out of range/LOS).
