Neroth
A Black Legion Sorcerer who first appears in Retribution, accompanying (more like acting as a nagging wife) the newly reborn (again) Eliphas as an emissary froma certain armless fellow.
He's also an idiot. Seriously, he couldn't even figure out Kyras' bullshit escape plan (that even an ORK can figure out), and he cheats by using the Warp and still can't figure it out. Eliphas is a fucking Khornate Champion and he still knows the answer to that before hand. Some fucking follower of Tzeentch you are, Neroth.
Might have Khornate tendencies, seeing his inclination to kill shit over plotting.
His quote at Chapter Keep Selenon, "Look at them! So weak! So vexed!" is the ultimate response when you have successfully trolled someone.
He is not to be confused with Nemeroth. Or a certain other guy with hilariously similar name, who is also a deranged wizard.
Gameplay
Neroth starts off very fragile, but able to hit pretty well with a stream of doombolts. Given five points in offense to double the power of his spells and the Artifact of Ahriman he shits free doombolts everywhere and becomes half way useful the best horde-breaker after the Leman Russ Executioner. He can also be given a force sword, but given his fragility melee really isn't the right place for him.
Of course, you'll probably have Eliphas at level 10 and fully Khornate by the time you unlock Neroth's potential, so he'll be one-shotting entire armies with Sweeping Doom long before then. This still means that chaos makes infantry blobs like Orks and guard melt away like butter under a melta gun.
