The Reclusians are unleashed as Games Workshop Opens the Ruination Chamber!
With the peal of a thousand bells and a rent in the earth, the Vermindoom has begun. Blight City has manifested in physical reality and crashed into the Mortal Realms, puncturing up from its foetid subrealm. Untold numbers of Skaven are teeming out of these warpstone-tainted rifts, hunched clanrats backed by nameless horrors and ramshackle weapons developed by Skaven engineers.
These twisted beachheads appearing in the realms are deadly to even the freshly reforged Stormcast Eternals Liberators, and the scale of this disaster is so broad that Sigmar has been forced to unseal the Ruination Chamber of the Stormcast Eternals. The first warriors to emerge from its threshold are the baroque Reclusians.
The Reclusians are a new form of Stormcast eternals not yet seen from the vault of Age of Sigmar lore. They are one of the newest range of models that are replacing the retiring Stormcast ranges. Reclusians are mere steps away from losing there souls, a handful of reforgings away from losing themselves completely. They are accompanied by mortal priest who are there descendants called Memorians that helps keep their souls anchored during battle and prevents them from slipping away.
The pictures below show some Gorgeous new male and female models. I particularly like the double Axe model. I also like the colors on all of them. The silvered helms look magnificent. The new style shields too. Three separate models are shown and though Games Workshop has released no details I would assume they will come in a unit of three. I for one cannot wait to add them to my Stormcast Army.
When the Reclusians take up arms, they are accompanied by mortal priests called Memorians, often direct descendants of the Stormcast Eternals themselves. They are an anchoring presence for the Reclusians, ensuring that the precious humanity that grounds them does not slip away in battle.
No more than a handful of reforgings away from losing themselves completely, the Reclusians had been sequestered in quiet contemplation – but the need is too great, the hour too dire for these stalwarts to remain at peace. They are unflinching in battle, striding into the most inhospitable battlefields, their lightning-scoured souls shrugging off the corrupting influence of Chaos.
After countless reforgings over centuries of service to the God-king, the gift of immortality becomes a curse, and these Stormcasts’ humanity has slowly eroded away. They may have forgotten their old friends and blood relations, their place of origin, or even their own battle-scarred histories. Some may have strange supernatural phenomena manifesting around them, speak with voices of thunder, or have lost their ability to dream of a better life.
The Reclusians fight on nevertheless. They have honed their skills over numerous lifetimes, armed with mighty rune-blessed weapons and clad in the finest thunderstrike armour adorned with relics and parchments listing their numerous heroic deeds.

We’ll have plenty more from the Mortal Realms to share with you on Warhammer Community over the coming weeks, alongside plenty more Skaven horrors.
