Weirding Warrior

The Weirding Warrior stood still in the shadow of the building, only its beak poking out of its hood. Before it on the streets of the city was a battle. The sound of steel on steel, of spellcasting, and of dying screams filled the twilight air.

The Weirding Warrior focused its glowing eyes on a single enemy soldier. A man in shining armor that seemed to inspire those around him. Hands twisting, the Weirding Warrior whispered its eldritch words of power. And as the human man fought, his once shiny armor began to rust.

The next attack cracked his armor, and he stumbled backward, shocked. He stared down in horror, unable to wrap his mind around what had happened.

The next attack pierced the armor entirely and killed him. The Weirding Warriors are from the same faction as the Insidious Warlocks of the Chaos Legion. But whereas the Insidious Warlocks work together for dark magic and guide battle tactics, the Weirding Warriors have an altogether different specialty.

By manipulating the sonic energies around them and their opponents, they are able to rust and compromise enemy armor. They are also able to ward against magical attacks. To weave their eldritch and powerful abilities, the Weirding Warriors stick to the shadows, influencing battles unseen. An enemy soldier will not even realize why their armor isn't holding up in a fight, dying before they ever see the Weirding Warrior step out of the shadows.

The Weirding Warriors follow a creed. “Influence. Manipulate. Destroy.” They meet together in secret and expand their powers. Only rarely do they speak, and that is either to the Insidious Warlocks, or to the senior leadership of the Chaos Legion itself.
