 The
tombs of the necropoli are infested with the dried husks and
shells of countless poisonous insects and other vicious creatures
of the desert. Though long dead, the mere presence of the
Liche Priests and Tomb Kings fills their empty shells with
animation, and they scuttle from their hiding places around
the mortuary temples and beneath the sands. The Liche Priests
have long since gained mastery over these creatures and can
summon them forth at will through their incantations. They
do this to guard the necropolis against intruders, especially
tomb robbers. Those who penetrate the labyrinthine passages
of the tombs risk these swarms appearing seemingly from the
earth itself in an unstoppable wave, biting, clawing and burying
themselves in flesh. The victims are poisoned by hundreds
of bites and stings, and are rapidly devoured as the vicious
creatures quickly consume flesh, clothing and bone.
Tomb Swarms may be included in your Tomb Kings army as a
Core choice.
