A Witch Elf

The Witch Elves (Druhir: Tulluch [1]) are priestesses of Khaine, Lord of Murder. They seek nothing more than to offer mighty sacrifices to their merciless deity, prefferably by spilling their victim's blood amidst deadly combat.


The Witch Elves are organized in a warrior sisterhood.

  • Young priestesses form warbands, each led by a Hag.
  • The Hags are responsable to more experienced Death Hags.
  • The Death Hags answer only to the Hag Queens.


The overall leadership of the sisterhood belongs to Hellebron, the second-oldest of the Hag Queens. However many Witch Elves support her powerful rival Morathi.

Many of the younger Witch Elves form their own cults/warbands, and rent their deadly services to ambitious Dreadlords intent on gathering armies.
