Scyla, as shown in Champions of Chaos

Scyla Anfingrim, the Spawn of Chaos is a Chaos Spawn who at one time was a Chaos warlord of Khorne who led a band of raiders in the northern coastal regions of The Empire.[1][2]

History

He is reputed to be feared by the Kislevite merchants of Erengrad and a daring raid on the docklands of Lynsk is mentioned as a particular success. Scyla became the victim of his own success when the accumulation of gifts from his patron god resulted in a descent into spawnhood instead of an ascent to daemon princedom.[1][2]

At first his body swelled with chitinous plates. This gift made him even more powerful, but it was the beginning of the end for Scyla. Within the year his head had grown elongated and reptilian and a beaked tail sprouted from his back. His limbs lost their clean human shape, becoming long, hairy, and ape-like and soon he could not even hold his sword. Soon he ... fell upon all fours like a beast ... becoming a Chaos Spawn.[1][2]

Scyla's lieutenant One-Eyed Erlock became Khorne's champion, placed a collar of Khorne around the spawn's neck and led his former lord into battle.[1][2]

Stories state that Scyla finally fell at the Gates of Kislev, the titanic battle that ended the Great War against Chaos.[1][2]

Weapons and Equipment

  • Collar of Khorne: Protects Scyla against magic and magical weapon.[2]
  • Iron Hard Skin: Grants ythe spawn considerable protection against weapons.[2]
