Strategies and Tactics
The Gloom Lacren rushes in with Gloom Rush, dealing as much damage as possible before its turn ends. It then relies on its interrupt powers to supplement its already nigh flawless guard.
Ecology
Environment: Abyss
Lore
Abyssal tyrants endowed with unstoppable power by the Celestial Architect herself, they reproduce by devouring any who stumble near, spreading the Boundless Gloom wherever they travel. They exist for a single purpose: expand the Architect's empire, and this they do by enlisting the loyal, and devouring the traitorous.
Society
Gloom Lacren society centers around worshiping their creator, the Architect who built from nothing all that is seen felt and exists. Outsiders and kin alike are sacrificed in Her great name. Found in the deepest layers of the boundless abyss, they dwell in fortresses of bleached and rotting bone, over which immense statues of the Architect keep timeless vigil.
