UNORP - The Furies, Paladins of Murz-Goldra

The patron of the mighty city of Roblu is Murz-Goldra, a powerful goddess of war and battle.  There are numerous warrior orders dedicated to her worship, honouring her through their pursuit of martial perfection.

The most famed is the all-female order called The Furies.  These Paladins of Murz-Goldra ride fearsome Wargs to battle, a sacred animal of their goddess.  The Furies see themselves as the righteous anger of Murz-Goldra made Orcflesh and train in the most aggressive fighting techniques - masters all of wielding two weapons from the back of their mounts.

Each young Orc that joins The Furies is bonded to a Warg pup - they raise and fight alongside their new companion from then on.  This bond seems almost magical to the commoners of the Union - tales are told of The Furies and their Wargs all across the lands.

Every victory The Furies deliver is offered up to Murz-Goldra - they are considered the epitome of the noble warrior and carry with them the honour of the Union.

The current High-Templar is Lagakh whose bond-Warg is a rare albino known as Hailstorm.

These are Ral Partha Demonworld minis - Clanngett's Furies (I paid homage with their name but put my own spin on it for UNORP).  They are two-piece castings; warg and rider.
