The Arisen



The Arisen constitutes the vast majority of Arkhan's army, which was composed not of his indentured Nehekharan  legions, but the graveborn victims of plague and civil war. This was not entirely to the liche's liking, for he felt it sullied the ancient art of war to go into battle with what were essentially the undead equivalents of mercenary hirelings. In the end, Arkhan reconciled himself, partly through the recollection that the Bretonnians were northern savages, and therefore unworthy of honourable battle, but mostly because the dead lay so plentiful throughout Quenelles that it would have been foolish to waste them.
