The

Lich

From fable’s heart springs fable’s fear, a past within a past

From time before our nightmares still, made flesh by sullen mass

Omens

0 of 6 encountered

1. A grey wind shrieks into the Realm. Any items made of bone tremble for a moment.
2. A ghost of shadow and smoke drifts nearby, clutching four gems. This is the ghost of the Lich, gathering his riches.
3. A stream surges with blood toward the Myth Hex, a crumbled palace arisen.
4. A hooded congregation surrounds an altar, a skull resting atop it. The Lich, as a skull, proclaims his return as the old king. If disturbed the hooded robes fall to the ground, no body within. The Lich threatens any Knights, but blasts off into the sky if he needs to retreat to his palace.
5. The Lich, as a skull, rests on a heap of bones before reassembling to a human form, desiccated skin growing to cover his bones. Now with a full body he seeks to return to his palace and rule the Realm.
6. A sky of skull-clouds bellow a new law each Season (see opposite). At Season’s end, all who broke the law are struck by a black bolt ( Damage, ignore Armour).
