Megalith’s Mercenary Elf Prince Ymric Makes His Appearance
March 21, 2017 by dracs
Megalith Games have previewed a new mercenary warlord who will be available to lead any faction or subfaction in Godslayer. The arrogant elf Prince Ymric the Exile.
"Ymric is an outcast from Malentis, the large island siting in the western ocean which is home to the ancient Aetherion race. Several thousand years ago, before the great flood and the following dark age, the Malentians subjugated almost the entire world of Calydorn, and their queen became the most worshipped entity in the history of humanity, eclipsing the gods of the mortals.
Needless to say, the Gods became angered and wiped out 90% of humanity, bringing the Malentian Empire crashing down. For Ymric, those heady days are still a fresh memory and mortals are dogs to do his bidding."
Prince Ymric has a great back story. The idea of being led by the arrogant remnant of some mythological past is too cool to pass up.
The model, sculpted by Rafaele Stumpo, really captures both the majesty and the arrogance of this character. I can imagine Ymric being inspiring to those fighting for him while viewing them as little more than insects.
What are your thoughts on this latest mercenary from Megalith?

Reminds me of Elric of Melnibone and Stormbringer artwork. Pretty cool!
I like Godslayer, but it might be due to the fact that I can relate to the things that they are influenced by like Eric, and Rune Quest
He’d make a great adventuring character or maybe a Captain in Frostgrave.
Very nice sculpt …but pffffft an elf … really? Elves are so 2001 ……. Now is the time of the Dwarf. (Seriously there is dwarf $%$ going off everywhere ….. dwarf, dwarf, dwarf, dwarf, dwarf, dwarf, dwarf,dwarf…….*contented sigh…..Now if only GW would reintroduce “the army that dare not speak it’s name to 40k)
It is a nice elf though … as elves go … I feel dirty typing this sentence
lol
He would make a great hero for d&d type games.
