World Walkers Monsters & Beasts

Frost-Wyrm

The mutating power of Chaos has touched more than just trolls and wolves in the malign wilderness of Troll Country. In its northern reaches, just below the surface of the frozen tundra, Frost-Wyrms lurk in their underground lairs. With the appearance of giant, winged monsters, nobody is entirely sure of their true nature or origins, but they are certainly abominable creatures tainted by Chaos. Some say that before the species mutated, they may have been Ice Dragons – a creature with a similarly dangerous killing ability in its icy, freezing breath, and a gargantuan size proportional to its age. Lying motionless beneath the frozen tundra, the cold-blooded Frost-Wyrm waits for the footfalls of trespassers before emerging to freeze them to death in their tracks.

Abilities

• Frost Breath
  This ice-cold breath delivers freezing death, slowing down those who are fortunate to survive the exposure.
• Wounds
  Even the greatest foes can be laid low with terrible injuries, and the greater the damage done, the less able they will be to effectively continue the fray.
  Speed x 90%
  Armour-Piercing Weapon Damage x 80%
  Base Weapon Damage x 80%
• The Chilling Aura
  As if the enemy were caught in a blizzard or wading through treacle, the ice-cold aura slows any unit within range to a near-standstill.
  Speed x 70%

Attributes

• Causes Fear
  This unit frightens all enemy units, reducing their leadership when nearby. It is also immune to fear. Fear penalties do not stack.
• Causes Terror
  This unit can cause terror, making its melee target rout for a short time. Units that cause terror are immune to terror and fear themselves.
• Can Fly
  This unit can fly.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Frostbite
  The intense cold cuts into the flesh and burns the foe's extremities, greatly reducing their speed.
• Causes Terror
  This unit can [[img:ui/battle ui/ability_icons/causes_terror.png]]cause terror, making its melee target rout for a short time. Units that cause terror are immune to terror and [[img:ui/battle ui/ability_icons/causes_fear.png]]fear themselves.
• Armour-Piercing
  The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
