"In the end the strong will persist, the weak will have been culled, and the Malevolent One will sit upon His throne with His Legion beside Him."
Sworn to enforce the will of Lord Sartan, the Dread Legates relentlessly hone their skills, administering their primal, unyielding interpretation of His Seven Truths of Evil to the masses beyond the walls of Mhaldor.
Ruthless and inexorable in their actions, the Legates comprise a visceral military force, slaughtering the meek and feeble that infect not only this world, but all others. With little regard for the lesser ideologies of heathens and fools, each Legate soldier charts an iniquitous crusade against the ignorant blasphemy of the weak, savagely preaching the infallible Word of their God.
Few resist the barrage of oral and physical assaults; the weak break, invariably submitting to His will or casting their lives aside in only the most brutal and torturous fashion. They are the scythe and the firestorm, culling the frail and cauterising imperfection, that Creation may advance without the cancer of ineptitude plaguing all too many among the timorous herd.
