Promo Text: Nobody wants to look too close at the magic practiced by the orcs of Grut: underlings animated by bloody magic coursing through their veins, leaving a trail of blood in their wake. Most of it their own.

Character Bio:

All worlds are connected by magic. It flows in different ways, feels different but for those with the sixth sense, thaumaturgy, the magic of each world has a distinct taste.

Feylund's wispy, showy magic. Valhalla's strong, overpowering, runic magic. Actorus' chaotic magic.

Grut's magic is in its blood. A hateful, violent magic. Gore and ichor. Spilling the life of your enemy or even your ally. Drawing directly from that which animates them. For the orcs of Grut, this is magic. It serves their brutal and violent purposes, and no one is more respected and feared than this shaman. He is the one who inducts the chieftains. He is the one who oversees war. He is the one who boils the blood of his fellow orcs with a flick of his wrist, driving them into an insane frenzy.

He can hear them call his name now and he can taste the blood soon to be spilled.

"Kuthnak!"

SPECIAL POWERS

• INCANTATION OF BOILING BLOOD
  Before moving normally with a Common Orc Squad you control, you may choose a figure in that Squad within 4 clear sight spaces of Kuthnak. For the rest of the turn, the chosen figure adds 3 to its Move and 1 to its Attack, and may attack any or all figures adjacent to it this turn with its normal attack. Roll each attack separately. After that turn, destroy the chosen figure.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• Q: If Incantation of Boiling Blood is used on a Common Orc Squad figure, but Kuthnak dies during that figure's turn (for example, by the Frost Giant's Dying Swipe), does the Squad figure continue to be affected by Incantation?
  A: Yes. Incantation lasts "the rest of the turn." The figure must also be destroyed at the end of that turn, even if Kuthnak is killed.
