Nina the Soul-Keeper - Necromancer

Some necromancers specialise in raising freshly killed corpses, some prefer breathing life into long-dead dusty skeletons, but a rare few command power over immortal souls.

Having learnt the necromantic arts under Gunther von Heidenstadt the Soul-Flayer, Nina furthered her studies by researching the scrolls of Djedkare the Wise and the Book of Ash, long thought lost in the ruined catacomb lair of Francois Le Noir.

Eventually, Nina could bind and command souls to do her bidding, but this was not enough, she wanted to be able to remove the souls from men while they still lived, not just at the point of death. She has travelled to Mordheim to see how the power of warpstone can be harnessed to further her work.

I picked this up from the random mini second-hand bin at a localish game shop - turns out it's Ahsa Ruyar from Rackham's Cadwallon range.  She's a little tall and slender compared to most in the Hireling Agency, but the miniature was unique so I couldn't resist including it!

Wildlife of Sector B67 - It came from the sump...

Like most sectors of the Underhive, B67 has its fair share of sump pools and lakes.  Those who make a living fishing for sump-pike and sludgecrabs tell tales of something that has made B67 its home.  They aren't sure what it is, but they know it's not quite right - some swear they have seen monstrous tentacles reach out of the sump, others claim to have collected mucus left behind by a giant beast as it returned to a sump lake.

Most right-thinking B67ers don't pay much heed to the tall tales of anglers - all those hours out on their own breathing in whatever comes off the sump must surely have caused them to have hallucinations.

I picked up a random second-hand miniature from Wayland's Forge in Birmingham many years ago - it was just in a baggy and I didn't know much about it, just thought it was cool - turns out it's a Rackham Chthonian Larva:

At one point it was going to be a Nurgle Chaos Spawn in a Chaos Space Marine army, but that got dropped so I thought it would fit in as some kind of unknown sump-beast for Sector B67.
