Anasta Malkorion Vampire Lord

Elder vampires often continue to grow in power as the years tick by, their arcane and martial might growing steadily even as the paragons of mortal races wither and die. Many take up the mantle of a Vampire Lord, commanding legions of undead servants and scores of lesser Soulblight vampires in grand campaigns of conquest across the Mortal Realms. Such is the contempt they have for mortal life, that a Vampire Lord will gladly pause in the middle of battle to drain a worthy foe of their blood before continuing the slaughter of their comrades.

Quintessential leaders for a Soulblight Gravelords warband, Vampire Lords are everything one afflicted by the Soulblight curse aspires to be. Capable of smashing aside entire units of lesser soldiers just as easily as they weave the deathly magics of Shyish, the true power of these consummate warriors lies in their command of the shambling hordes that march with them. By unshackling the bestial rage that drives their unnatural thirst for blood, nearby mobs of skeletons and zombies find themselves invigorated to unseen heights of violence.
