Sisterhood Panther Lancers

From Kings of War Wiki


Sisterhood Panther Lancers have also been known to ride the vicious Gur Panthers to war.

About

These deadly feline hunters can be found roaming the forests of Gur in the province of Tarkis, whose borders are piously guarded by the sisterhood. There is a strict limit on the number of juvenile cats that can be removed from the forest for taming so that this precious resource is never lost.

Raised and trained by dedicated handlers, a panther will grow to be almost as large as a horse. Panthers in training are directed to fight on the battlefield in packs, their tamers letting the animals give in to their hunting instincts.

Once fully trained, these beasts are made even more dangerous when mounted by a battle sister. Warrior and panther will fight as a deadly pair, either as lancer light cavalry or from swift chariots.

Each pairing of human and beast is a permanent relationship, the sister and panther bound to each other, going through training and battle together. Should one die, the other will be unable to find a new partner again.

Kings of War Apperances


Originally called Panther Lancers, was renamed to Sisterhood Panther Lancers in Kings of War – 2nd Edition Rulebook and continued into Kings of War – 3rd Edition Rulebook

1st Edition

 


Called “Sisterhood” no matter what denomination they might be, these warriors fulfil all the roles one could imagine, from bodyguard to siege engineers, but by far the most common are the mobile, lightly armoured types, particularly those who have adopted the rule of Oredorus. Most are worshippers of the Shining Ones Mariatara, Galena, and Suspintara in the main – the goddesses of battle, inviolability, and service. Most famous of all are those who hail from Tarkis, once a small Basilean kingdom famed for its light warriors, famous for its deadly Gur Panthers.

2nd Edition

 





The Gur Panthers of the Tarkis Mountains have long been used as mounts for the Sisterhood infantry of nearby convents. The semi-intelligent panthers are deadly hunters, and partial domestication has done nothing to dim their urge to chase down and devour prey.
