105th Scream Warriors

The 105th · Scream Warriors

Three-thousand-strong Princess Posse battalion led by Jurgen and Heidi, mass-teleported into the woods behind Carl.

Story so far

The 105th arrived with a loud thwum as the mages completed the grueling Mass Teleportation spell they'd stood still for hours to receive. A few soldiers materialized inside trees and screamed, and their sudden appearance tripped traps and guard summons in the woods — which went very badly for the handful of Madness mercenaries who found themselves alone with 3,000 Princess Posse troopers. Despite the embedded arrivals, everyone survived the trip.

Jurgen told them they'd trained for this and to wait for his or Heidi's command, while Imani flew the forming line warning them to watch their neighbors for signs of Madness mind or Atrocity magic. Then Bear Witness froze them all and Bring Forth the Witnesses launched the entire battalion into the sky.

Appearance

A diverse mass of three thousand troopers forming a shield-lit line at the edge of the smoky woods.

Role

The main body of Carl's assault force on the back side of the Madness castle.

Relationships

Jurgen — Co-commander who gives the hold order.
Heidi — Co-commander alongside Jurgen.
Princess Posse — Their parent army.
