TAG     : Warhammer Age of Sigmar Flesh Eater Courts Crypt Flayers
GAME :  Age of Sigmar

Crypt Flayers are a terrifying and formidable unit within the Flesh Eater Courts, a faction in the Age of Sigmar known for their grotesque obsession with flesh and the macabre. These monstrous creatures are the result of horrific transformations, embodying the twisted nature of the Flesh Eater Courts and serving as brutal shock troops on the battlefield.

Background and Lore

Origins: Crypt Flayers are created from the remains of mortals who have been transformed by the dark magic of the Flesh Eater Courts. They are often former Crypt Ghouls who have undergone further mutations, becoming larger, more powerful, and more bestial in nature. This transformation is fueled by their insatiable hunger for flesh and the influence of the Abhorrant Ghoul Kings.

Role in the Flesh Eater Courts: As elite shock troops, Crypt Flayers are used to break enemy lines and instill fear in their foes. They are known for their speed and ferocity, capable of charging into battle and wreaking havoc among enemy ranks. Their monstrous forms and terrifying presence make them a key component of the Flesh Eater Courts' strategy.

Horrific Delusions: Like other members of the Flesh Eater Courts, Crypt Flayers are driven by delusions of grandeur, believing themselves to be noble warriors serving a grand cause. This delusion fuels their ferocity in battle, as they fight with a frenzied zeal, convinced they are engaged in a glorious crusade.

Appearance

Crypt Flayers have a grotesque and monstrous appearance that reflects their horrific transformations:

Physical Features: They are large, hulking creatures with elongated limbs, sharp claws, and gaping maws filled with jagged teeth. Their bodies are often emaciated, with skin stretched tightly over their skeletal frames, giving them a ghastly appearance.

Wings: Crypt Flayers possess bat-like wings that allow them to glide short distances, enhancing their mobility on the battlefield. These wings are often tattered and grotesque, adding to their nightmarish look.

Armor and Trophies: They may wear bits of armor or adornments taken from their victims, further emphasizing their savage nature. Their bodies are often covered in the blood and gore of their enemies, showcasing their brutal combat style.

Role in Gameplay

In Age of Sigmar, Crypt Flayers serve several key roles within a Flesh Eater Courts army:

Shock Troops: Crypt Flayers excel at breaking through enemy lines and causing chaos among opposing forces. Their ability to charge into battle and deal significant damage makes them effective at disrupting enemy formations.

Mobility: With their wings, Crypt Flayers can maneuver around the battlefield, allowing them to engage key targets or flank enemy units. Their speed and agility make them difficult to pin down.

Psychological Warfare: The terrifying presence of Crypt Flayers can instill fear in opponents, potentially causing them to falter in battle. Their monstrous appearance and ferocity can disrupt enemy morale, creating openings for other units to exploit.

Conclusion

Crypt Flayers are a vital component of the Flesh Eater Courts, embodying the grotesque and savage nature of this faction. Their monstrous forms, speed, and ferocity make them a powerful force on the battlefield. As brutal shock troops dedicated to the insatiable hunger for flesh, the Crypt Flayers stand ready to unleash their terror upon the living, ensuring that the legacy of the Flesh Eater Courts continues to thrive in the Age of Sigmar.
