Beastmen strive to become Champions of Chaos and earn the favour of the Ruinous Powers. But the gods are fickle, and their blessing can be a curse.
During the Command sub-phase of their turn, a character with this special rule may choose to roll on the Gaze of the Gods table:
Gaze of the Gods Table
D6 Result
1 Damned by Chaos: The Champion is beset with visions of the Realm of Chaos. This model becomes subject to the Stupidity special rule for the remainder of the game. If they already have this special rule, they suffer a -1 modifier to their Leadership (to a minimum of 2).
2 Unnatural Quickness: To the Champion, time itself seems to slow around them. Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model gains a +1 modifier to their Initiative characteristic (to a maximum of 10).
3 Iron Skin: Beneath their baroque armour, the Champion’s skin becomes like iron. Until your next Start of Turn sub-phase, this model gains a +1 modifier to their Toughness characteristic (to a maximum of 10).
4 Murderous Mutation: Long tentacles whip from beneath the Champion’s armour to grasp at their enemies. For the remainder of the game, this model gains a +1 modifier to their Weapon Skill characteristic (to a maximum of 10).
5 Dark Fury: A terrible rage grips the Champion. For the remainder of the game, this model gains a +1 modifier to their Attacks characteristic (to a maximum of 10).
6 Apotheosis: The Champion is blessed with daemonic vitality. For the remainder of the game, this model gains a +1 modifier to both their Strength and Leadership characteristics (to a maximum of 10).
Note that any benefits granted by the Gaze of the Gods apply only to the Champion, not to their mount (should they have one).
