The Katsuchan Rocket Launcher is a nightmarish machine that fires devastating rockets into the enemy ranks that explode in bursts of magical fire.

About

The war machines of the dwarfs are based on tried and tested designs that have been in use for thousands of years. Those fielded by the Abyssal Dwarfs, however, are new and volatile creations of the Iron-casters.

Built to cause devastation and excruciating pain. These infernal machines are created bearing the likenesses of abyssals, with leering faces and sharpened teeth. Their appearance is far from coincidence, for the Iron-casters use their foul art to bind the essence of Ariagful’s children to their frames.

Each engine is, on some level, alive and viciously sentient. They rage against their metal prisons, their aggression fuelling the fires of the weapons they employ.

With but a word, an Iron-caster can invoke the regenerative powers of the abyssal inside the machine and use it to magically repair any damage caused. Ariagful herself bears no ire to the Abyssal Dwarfs for her abyssals’ imprisonment, as the denizens of the Abyss are of little consequence to her.
