As we eagerly await the arrival of Dawnbringers Book V, let’s shine a spotlight on Krethusa the Croneseer, the enigmatic figure central to the upcoming narrative. Krethusa’s origins trace back to her days as a Khainite outcast, consumed by her devotion to Morai-Heg, the ancient Crone Goddess. Despite enduring ridicule and scorn for her beliefs, Krethusa’s unwavering dedication led her to don the barbed Circlet of Morai-Heg, sacrificing her sight in exchange for foresight.
However, fate had other plans for Krethusa. Transformed into the winged Croneseer by a sliver of divinity amidst Morathi-Khaine’s ascension, she now commands potent gifts of prescience and prediction. Leading a cabal of dissident Khainites known as the Croneseer’s Pariahs, Krethusa rejects Morathi-Khaine’s authority, instead pledging allegiance to Morai-Heg.
In Dawnbringers: Book V – Shadow of the Crone, the Croneseer’s Pariahs emerge as a formidable Army of Renown, boasting thematic rules that enhance their prowess on the battlefield. Notably, they empower Doomfire Warlocks, traditionally scorned by Morathi-Khaine, with new hit-and-run tactics and battlefield supremacy.
But Krethusa’s strength lies not in personal combat but in her ability to support her followers. Through burnt offerings of blood, she bestows powerful prophecies that shape the course of battle. With a full cauldron at her disposal, Krethusa can unleash prophetic blessings, disrupting enemy strategies and bolstering her own forces with strategic precision.
The Army of Renown features unique artifacts, grand strategies, battle tactics, command traits, and prayers, fundamentally altering the strategies employed by Krethusa’s Daughters of Khaine. Prepare to enlist Morai-Heg’s chosen prophet by pre-ordering Dawnbringers: Book V – Shadow of the Crone and downloading Krethusa’s Warscroll for a glimpse into her formidable abilities.
