Sekhar, The Fang of Nulahmia is a new Age of Sigmar Vampire miniature dropping alongside the Dawnbriungers Book IV.
GW revealed the Dawnbringers: Book IV – The Mad King Rises not too long ago, but this is the first new miniature we’ve seen since the announcement! They also gave us a little taste of the rules, which might push you over the edge to grab this mini.
She has been slowly siphoning off the Summerking’s infected blood to sell as fine wines to the Cities of Sigmar. Now, the new Dawnbringer Crusade is forcing her to fight to keep her schemes running. But is she helping or hurting Ushoran?
Sekhar, The Fang of Nulahmia Rules, & Launch Box Revealed By GW!
The new Sekhar The Fang of Nulahmia miniature comes from Warhammer Community, but is she helping or hurting Ushoran?
In Ghyran, the expedition has reached a treacherous mountain range known as the Neck, deep within the territory of New Summercourt. As if delusional ghouls weren’t bad enough, Ushoran’s cannibal court is currently playing host to a delegation of haughty vampiric diplomats, under the watchful gaze of Sekhar, Fang of Nulahmia.
Every vampire of Neferata’s court is a consummate schemer, their eternal unlife devoted to spreading the Mortarch’s venomous influence – but Sekhar’s talent for intrigue outstrips even that of her rivals. As chief diplomat for the Queen of Blood, she bends friends and foes alike to Neferata’s will with powerful hypnotism, spell-laden speech, and subtle subliminal gestures.
This is quite an interesting miniature. If you’ve always wanted a vampire with a giant pet snake, here you go.
Sekhar and her attendants have wormed their way into Ushoran’s court, banking on his respect for nobility, chivalry, and the blood ties between Mortarchs. From here, they syphon the Summerking’s infected blood, sending shipments of “fine wines” out into Sigmarite cities across the Mortal Realms. Sekhar has kept these wheels turning with syrupy speech and careful diversions, but the arrival of the Twin-Tailed Crusade now threatens to throw her meticulous schemes off-balance.
The Summer Court is really cool lore-wise, and getting another character from it. Plus, the idea of her selling off infected blood as wine is just fantastic.
New Sekhar, The Fang of Nulahmia AoS Rules
Like all vampires, Sekhar is swift, deadly, and commands deathly magic with ease – skills that are supplemented by her terrifying serpentine familiar. Ouboroth was once a mighty god-serpent, known amongst the underworlds as the Time-Swallower. Sekhar infiltrated and slowly undermined his priesthood, until Nagash could destroy his scaled rival.
A lowly avatar was all that remained, which God of Undeath bequeathed to Sekhar as a gift for her service – and so that she could use her talents to keep Ouboroth placated. The pair work in tandem on the battlefield, their Serpentine Agility causing incoming attacks to miss unless the hit roll is an unmodified 5 or 6.
This is super strong. If you pit her against strong enemies without many attacks, she will be very hard to take down. Especially considering it’s unmodified, meaning your buffs won’t matter.
Though allowing the ever-hungry husk of Ouboroth to sate itself on souls is a risky deed, Sekhar recognises the power it offers. Once per battle, she can unleash The Time-Swallower’s Maw, dealing mortal wounds to enemy units within 6″ but sacrificing Serpentine Agility for the rest of the battle.
Well, if you roll high (or are just against an army with a bunch of slow units), this could do an insane number of Mortals. On average, though, a roll of 7 should do a few mortals here and there.
AoS Fang of Nulahmia Miniature Launch Box
The first place Sekhar will be available is in the Fangs of the Blood Queen box, which contains Sekhar, three Fell Bats, and 10 Dire Wolves.
Rules for the Fang of Nulahmia will be available as a free download on Warhammer Community. You’ll also find her in Dawnbringers: Book IV – The Mad King Rises, alongside an Army of Renown specifically designed for cabals of vampiric agents (and their beloved pets).
You’ll have to buy the whole Regiments of Renown box to score the new miniature. Her rules will also be included in the Mad King Rises Dawnbringers Book IV.
