Description

The Anarchists conjure physical, flaming manifestations of power that reduce their enemies to ashes.

All Onslaught demons are haunted with a powerful inner rage that, when left unchecked, leads to self-destruction. The Anarchists have learned to channel their rage into physical manifestations of power. They can shape the fire within into an axe made of flame, an incredibly sharp and blazing sword, or a powerful inferno of spiralling flames. It is very difficult for their enemies to parry their manifested weapons, as they are able to alter the solidity of their weapons at will, by phasing them in and out of existence. Their flaming weapons can shift from being as solid as metal, to as ethereal as air in the blink of an eye. This practice takes years of dedication and deep meditation to master, so Anarchists are one of the most uncommon Atriarch’s within the ranks of Onslaught. 

Like the fire, itself, the Anarchists embrace chaos.

Anarchists are wild and unpredictable. While not as uncontrolled as a Berserker, they prefer to fight alone where they can unleash the flames of their rage with abandon. Much of Onslaught’s society is structured into nomadic warbands, the order of the warbands helping the demons find purpose and control. Anarchists rebel against such order, roaming at will, disregarding rules, and embracing the chaos of the flame. Oftentimes they are outrunners for a warband, roaming far ahead and beginning battles that others must finish. Anarchists are viewed with a combination of wariness and admiration by other demons of Onslaught. They walk a path that few can master.

Raised in the violent combat pits which every demon of Onslaught must conquer from a young age, Anarchists are at a disadvantage. Their powers require great mental control that takes time to build. An Anarchist who is new to her craft will focus most of her physical pit training on dodging blows, landing few of her own. Her budding powers are used more to distract and blind, rather than attack. Slender, fast, and agile Anarchists rely on speed and unpredictability to survive in the pits. Once an Anarchist is able to conjure more solid weapons, then they are truly a formidable force. Able to dance, untouched, around the blows of an enemy, their agility allows them to leave an opponent writhing in agony with a simple slice, in passing.
