Though only a lowly priest in the complex rungs of the skink hierarchy, Kixi-Taka is looked upon with favour by his masters. When the Slann foresaw the doom that would fall upon Ghur, birthed in the bowels of the living mountain known as Beastgrave, they entrusted Kixi-Taka with relics of Old One technology to put an end to the threat. Now he faithfully guides the Starblood Stalkers – his taciturn Oldblood bodyguard Klaq-Trok, the skink hunters Xepic, Huachi, and Tok, and their camouflaged scout, Otapatl.
This group of unique characters is packed with personality and detail – Kixi-Taka wields arcane relics that mark him as a true herald of the Old Ones, raising aloft the ancient sphere of the Astrolith Igniter, while his followers include a roaring Saurus Oldblood, a trio of Skink Warriors wielding a spear, blowpipe, and moonstone club, and a stealthy Chameleon Skink perched atop a branch.
