Mallory the Envious – The Dark Ruler

Mallory the Envious – The Dark Ruler

Female Tiefling (Sorcerer, Warlock)

Standing atop a skull-strewn dais with an orb-crowned staff gripped in hand and a hand raised to weave dread enchantments, this sovereign tyrant commands absolute dread across the tactical grid. Her curled fiendish horns, sweeping tattered mantle, and ornate corset armor convey ruthless aristocratic dominance. Keepers can deploy this Artifact as the ultimate campaign overlord, an untouchable planar empress, or a ruthless patron punishing disobedience across her fractured domain.

Tabletop Lore

The largest threat to the land of Grimmvale; Mallory has proclaimed herself as its sole ruler and Queen, though she brings little else but misery to her subjects. Whilst some try fight against her, or secretly disobey her will, they are few and far between, and often meet gruesome ends. In truth, this world is one which Mallory herself has created, and any deviations from her own plans are met with punishment and discipline more unpleasant than one could imagine.

Highlight

This Artifact distinguishes itself through its commanding royal silhouette, combining sweeping torn drapery and fiendish anatomy with an intricate bone-strewn display base.

Encounter Insight

Deploy Mallory to anchor the climactic throne-room encounter of a dark fantasy campaign or introduce her as a distant patron pulling strings from behind a veil of fear. Tactically, Keepers can utilize her staff reach and high-elevation posture to command line-of-sight across the battlefield, punishing encroaching martial vanguards with devastating area enchantments and fiendish pact magic.
