Myrmidon

A race of warriors who betrayed the light when Balor promised them immortality. Three hundred years later, their decayed bodies still walk, held together only by rotting bandages and the desire to rend flesh from the bodies of the living.

Myrmidons carry two Gridaksma Blades, composed of a human femur capped on each end with the steel blade of a scythe. A few deft swings will cut a swath through almost anything. -Myrmidon Description, Cast of Characters, Myth TFL Manual

Description
The Myrmidons were originally a northern warrior race who lived in the Twelve Duns. A long time ago, they stumbled upon an age-old shine that contained scrolls, and it was from these scrolls that they learned the ancient ways of battle. Their swift and deadly techniques made them formidable opponents to even the Myrkridia, earning themselves the name "Myrmidon". During the Wind Age, the Twelve Duns fell to the might of Moagim's dark army. Ravanna, aided by Damas, lead the escape of thousands of refugees, and forged an alliance between the Duns, Gower, and Llancarfan.

During Balor's path of destruction, he stuck a deal with the Myrmidons with the promise of eternal life. The Myrmidons willingly abandon their kin to join him and the Fallen Lords, and so they became known as "The Kithless". Wrapped together only by ragged bandages to hold together their rotting bodies and armed with two Gridaksma Blades, they desired nothing more than to rend flesh from the bodies of the living.

Flavor Text
"Desirous of power and immortality, the warrior race of the Myrmidons left their northern kin to join Balor and the Fallen Lords, and so they became known as The Kithless."

"While still flesh and blood, the Myrmidons were most vain about their long hair and body paint, spending the eve of battle before a mirror rather than in a bedroll."
