Slay Bells Ring 3

Each person may take for free the following Living Legend character as part of their main army: The Reaper does not use one of your Hero, War Engine or Monster Slots.

Death is inevitable, and therefore, The Reaper is not represented as purely evil. Death is not choosing a time, place or years. The Reapers job is to escort the dead to the underworld. The Reaper pulls the souls out of the body, and guides them through the journey of the afterlife.

The angel of death appears to the dying to take out their souls. The sinners' souls are extracted in a most painful way while the righteous are treated easily.

The Reapers appearance depends on the person's deed and actions, with those that did good seeing a beautiful being, and those that did wrong seeing a horrific monster. The Reaper has taken many forms including: A bearded and winged man; a young boy, a spectral figure portending death, a tall, haggard figure with a wide hat and long white hair, a skeleton with a revolving head who sees everyone, everywhere, a defleshed body and with jaw agape to swallow the stars during the day, an old woman or plague hag. The Reaper has been seen by different races in either a Black or a White robe.

The High Paladins of Basilea, order the destruction of a being they view as bringing chaos to Mantica. The beings "crimes", granting children of all races wishes on KoWelmass eve and bringing them presents, a god-like creature who is known as Krampus.

OK, he does boil and whip naughty children, but who wants to hear spoilt bratts over KoWelmass.

Together the sisterhood and priests spread rumour and discourse and used the Wizards to bewitch the children of all races to no longer believe in Krampus.

Knowing that the Krampus is also responsible for the moon giving way to the sun each day which people have forgotten, The Reaper attempts to maintain belief in Krampus by dressing up and fulfilling his role.

Ho Ho Ho.

Victory Points are awarded at the end of the game as follows:

- - 2 Victory Points for killing opponents Krampus unit in Melee phase or 1 Victory Point for killing opponents Krampus unit in Shooting phase

  - Add up the points cost of the routed enemy units.
    - 740pts-1475pts = 1 Victory Points,

if the token is not on any unit but within a deployment zone, then it will return to an unoccupied space along the centre line.

Victory Points are awarded each turn as follows:

1 Victory Point for each Loot token moved to your opponents deployment zone
2 Victory Point for each Loot token moved back to your own deployment zone
