Doom Knights of Tzeentch[]
"Mortal might granted sorcerous flight, tearing the skies asunder in a blaze of blue and gold."
- —Description of the Doom Knights of Tzeentch[2]
A Tzeentchian Doom Knight as depicted in Total War: Warhammer III.
Those Doom Knights dedicated to Tzeentch, the Chaos God of change and intrigue, have tamed Discs of Tzeentch, soaring into battle mounted atop these Lesser Daemons of the Changer of the Ways, and thus consider themselves superior even to other Champions of Chaos.[2]
Screeching through the air like few before them, they would be a wondrous sight to behold if their coming did not always spell death and, as is their namesake, total and utter doom. There is no escape from the Doom Knights, and as one might expect, they show no mercy whatsoever to the foe.[2]
Notable Regiments[]
- Knights of Immolation - These Doom Knights of Tzeentch can wreathe their melee weapons in sorcerous fire and urge their Disc of Tzeentch mounts to spew Tzeentchian fire on all those below.[2]
