Theldranax, The Ancient – Elder Vampire

Vampire Monster

Erupting from the shadows with massive, leathery wings outspread and flanked by swirling torrents of dark energy, this terrifying entity commands absolute authority on the grid. His elevated, airborne posture and monstrously elegant silhouette give him an undeniable table presence that instantly signals a catastrophic threat. For Keepers seeking a true apex predator, an ancient bloodline patriarch, or an unforgettable boss encounter, this Artifact demands the party’s undivided attention.

Tabletop Lore

An elder ancestor of an influential bloodline, Theldranax has inhabited the deep catacombs beneath his ancestral keep for millennia. It is rumored that the great castle itself was originally constructed over his subterranean lair as a desperate means to contain his power, though the truth of that history remains lost to time. When his descendants recently returned to claim the ancestral home, his ancient chains were shattered, allowing him to dominate the minds of his kin from afar and turn his lineage into mere puppets for his dark desires.

Highlight

The sweeping, wide-span wing architecture paired with the swirling magical vortex acting as the model’s base creates a beautiful illusion of levitation and terrifying aerial mastery.
