Jet lion

A Jet Lion as depicted in Total War: Warhammer III.

A Jet Lion is a magical construct used in the armies of Grand Cathay that is carved from a block of pure jet into the likeness of large felines in the Far Eastern style. Created by wizards of the Celestial Court, these living statues are powerful assets for Cathay's military. They are very similar to Jade Lions, but are crafted from the ebony stone known as jet rather than jade.[1]

Role[]

Jet Lions are created by Cathayan wizards to have the size and strength of a dozen men. They are renowned for their speed and destructive power on the battlefield.[1]

Jet Lions possess the unique ability to suppress the enemy's ability to channel the Winds of Magic in the local area, causing frustration to enemy spellcasters. Even if the foe does manage to unleash its magic, Cathayan troops still benefit from the Jet Lion's protective magical aura.[1]
