While neither Naerlythe or the Spellthirster Hydras are likely to be incorporated as part of a FLC that already features a free legendary lord, it is likely Rakarth will feature some manner of magic resistance in reference to this part of the lore. Forging a pact with Morathi, the witch carved runes into the hide of one of the surviving hydras, turning the beast, Daerlythe, into the very first Spellthirster Hydra. With their combined magic, the High Elves exterminated his massive army of War Hydras, the largest in history at that point, forcing Rakarth and the three surviving beasts to flee. In the tabletop lore, Rakarth has a particular hatred against the High Elves because of a lost battle against the High Elf wizards Liandus, Ellyunnor and Aliana. Once he came of age, it was Rakarth who hatched, raised, and trained the dread black dragon Seraphon, personal mount of Malekith, The Witch King. When the mount died in battle, Rakarth gave the name to his replacement mount, the Black Dragon. The 4th edition states that Bracchus was the name of a vicious Dark Steed Rakarth tamed as a child. In the 4th edition of Warhammer Armies: Dark Elves, there is a bit of a contradiction. He allowed Rakarth to fly with him not out of fear, but out of kinship with the cruel and vicious young Druchii. On an instinctive level, Bracchus recognized an unmitigated cruelty and thirst for blood in the Dark Elf child. His father agreed.Īpproaching the dragon, Rakarth simply stared the creature in the eyes. Promising he would tame and ride the dragon, Rakarth asked to keep the beast as a prize if he succeeded. The elder Beastmaster intended to have the dragon killed, but Rakarth wanted the dragon for himself. Rakarth’s father, a Beastmaster himself, failed to tame the beast which nearly killed him in his attempts to ride it. He proved his abilities as a very young child with the Black Dragon, Bracchus. Offered through Total War Access, the Rakarth FLC will be available for download on March 18 through the Total War Access dashboard.Īccording to army guides published by Games Workshop, Rakarth is the greatest tamer in Karond Kar, filling most of the space in the city’s dungeons with his beasts. The developers of Total War: Warhammer II announced the upcoming release of a free Night Elf legendary lord, Beastlord Rakarth.
