The Visarch, Sword of Ynnead

May 2019·p. 34

THE SHORT VERSION

The Visarch serves as Yvraine’s guardian, teacher and confidante, his ancient armour carrying echoes of former warriors. His history as an Exarch who once taught her complicates this role, making loyalty and hidden identity central to a figure who appears both familiar and unsettling.

A Villain Reborn

Seb Perbet explains redesigning Abaddon while preserving the silhouette and symbolic details that make him recognisable.
