'Resistance' by NickY: Resist Poison and Insatiable Hunger

Here my fellow Druchii are 5 cold one riders hailing from the city of executioners, Har Ganeth. Fed on rich crustacean flesh full of carotenoids from the deeps waters of the Seas of Malice and Chill, these fearsome and beautiful reptilians have acquired a pink hue that most pleases the tastes of the Hag Queen.

One of my favorite Warhammer Fantasy characters, and indeed novel series, was Malus Darkblade. And while I loved and hated Malus in equal measure, I had nothing but love for his cold one mount, Spite. Part lizard, part canine, all heart, teeth and claw, this loyal companion was the highlight of whichever page he appeared on. If you haven't read the series, I won't spoil it for you, but perhaps you'll end up dreaming of riding your own cold one, too.

There is a catch, however.

These reptilian beasts from the caves of Hag Graef exude a poisonous and quite toxic slime from their skin. You'll need a strong will to tame the beast, and you'll need to grit your filed teeth tightly and resist the poison as it slowly steals all the sensation from your skin. So, too, must you resist the beast's urge to hunt and devour prey, lest its frenzy for flesh carries you right into the heart of the enemy line, alone and exposed.

So resist. Resist poison and the will of your mount and become a knight of Naggaroth - the most feared and dangerous warriors under the Witch King's command.
