They range from sycophantic schemers to masterful strategists who have waged war across a hundred battlefields. Though all such Nobles pursue their own unique enthusiasms and ambitions, they are without exception selfish individuals, possessed of an arrogance matched only by their martial prowess, honed over centuries of unceasing war. Many Dreadlords owe their position of power to their bloodlines, daring exploits, or the Witch King's mercurial favours. Others are granted temporary power by means of an writ of iron - an edict granted by one of the six rulers of the great cities of Naggaroth. He who bears a writ of iron shares the sponsor's authority - a powerful tool for the ambitious. However, should a Dark Elf fail in his appointed task, or show cowardice whilst acting in his sponsor's name, the writ is melted down and the molten remains poured down his throat. Such is the price of failure in Naggaroth. == Attributes == {{wh2_main_def_cha_dreadlord_0 bulletpoints}} == Character Abilities == === Active Abilities === *[[File:Wh main character abilities foe seeker.png|38px]] [[Foe-Seeker]] *[[File:Wh2 main character abilities volley of dark arrows.png|38px]] [[Volley of Dark Arrows]] === Passive Abilities === *[[File:Wh2 main faction abilities murderous prowess.png]] [[Murderous Prowess]] *[[File:Wh2 main character passive loose.png]] [[Loose!]] ==== Campaign only ==== *[[File:Wh2 main character passive darken the skies.png]] [[Darken the Skies]] === Item Abilities === *None ==== Multiplayer only ==== *[[File:Wh2 main item abilities pearl of infinite bleakness.png|38px]] [[Pearl of Infinite Bleakness (ability)|Pearl of Infinite Bleakness]] *[[File:Wh2 main item abilities the guiding eye.png|38px]] [[The Guiding Eye (ability)|The Guiding Eye]] == Items (Multiplayer) == *[[File:Wh main anc talisman.png|39px]][[Pearl of Infinite Bleakness]] *[[File:Wh main anc enchanted item.png|38px]][[The Guiding Eye]] == Mounts == *[[File:Mount dark steed.png|38px]][[Dark Steed]] *[[File:Mount cold one.png|38px]][[Cold One]] *[[File:Mount dark pegasus.png|38px]][[Dark Pegasus]] *[[File:Mount black dragon.png|38px]][[Black Dragon (mount)|Black Dragon]] == Names of Power == *Dreadlords can obtain [[Names of Power]] in the campaign. == Talent Tree == *[https://totalwarhammerplanner.com/planner/vanilla3/def_dark_elves/def_dreadlord Skill Tree on TotalWarhammerPlanner] == Strategy == {{strategy}} == Gallery == <gallery> Def dreadlord campaign 01 0.png Def dreadlord campaign 03 0.png </gallery> {{Navbox Dark Elves units}} [[Category:Total War: Warhammer II units]] [[Category:Dark Elves units]] [[Category:Dark Elves lord units]]
