Patriarch
Believe in the Great Orthodoxy! Believe in the Motherland! Faith is all the armour any man needs!The sentinels of the Kislevite faith. Bombastic, loud and proud of their creed, they exhort the warriors around them to acts of courage, protecting them with the power of faith. Patriarchs stride into battle bellowing the folk-songs of the Kislevite people with the cadence of battle-hymns – and mighty miracles of war are wrought by their belief. Bones of long-dead Kislevite heroes are carried in reliquary boxes, and those nearby take heart... although whether they hold any true magical properties remains a topic of speculation.
