This hand-selected artifact depicts a towering, grotesque parody of the divine levitating above a sea of bone, its massive wings constructed entirely from the fused, agonizing skeletons of plague victims. Radiating an overwhelming premium aura of apocalyptic dread, this miniature serves as the ultimate manifestation of a disease given terrifying, intelligent form.

Highlight

For Keepers seeking a breathtaking campaign climax or an absolute centerpiece boss, this artifact delivers unparalleled psychological and visual impact.

Tabletop Lore

An unholy amalgamation formed from the perished villagers of Limlight, this soaring monstrosity is a chilling sign that a cold, malevolent intelligence is actively driving the outbreak. Whether the creature’s angelic form is intended as a deliberate, mocking insult to the divine, or if it is merely the manifestation of its own twisted delusion of holiness, remains a subject of terrified debate among the realm’s surviving scholars. What remains entirely certain, however, is its insatiable hunger; it sweeps across the ruined settlement, violently adding any unfortunate soul left breathing into its ever-growing, writhing mass of amalgamated flesh.
