Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Wyches

"Wych Cults are ready."

-Wyches

The Wych Cults or Hekatarii of the Raiders are second in prestige in Drukhari society only to the Ardent Raiders that sponsor them. The Raiders of the Drukhari clan thrive upon expert displays of bloodletting, and in the pursuit of murder the Wyches are talented Aeldari indeed, much like Auring's Witch Elves. Voiced by Marcy Goldberg.

Overview
The nightly battles between the gladiatrixes of the Wych Cults draw baying crowds to every Ardent Raider arena. Wyches wield a variety of outlandish weapons that can whip out, extend, enmesh, retract, split in two, or snap an opponent's blade with the twist of a supple wrist.

Some Wyches specialise in such deadly esoterica. Furthermore, all Wyches are skilled knife-fighters who can kill a foe many times their size with the smallest of blades. The Wyches use a variety of combat drugs, galvanising them to ever-greater heights of balletic dexterity.

They flip and pirouette around their enemies, slicing open a throat here and piercing a heart there. The Wyches flow through the elegant steps of battle, expressions of disdain twisting into savage smiles as they psychically feed upon each fresh scream of agony and pain.
