Shriekers, one of the war machines of The Hive, are neither a machine nor are they organic. They are dead mass, animated by the magic of the Hive. When a Shrieker is destroyed, its inner Void seeks vengeance on those who did so. Some believe Shriekers to be the eyes of the Hive, allowing Wizards and Knights to watch over the battlefield and inner workings of the Hive’s extensive tunnels. Some believe to them to be nothing more than weapons, guarding important Hive areas.
Lore
- Main article: Shrieker (Grimoire Card)
These ever-watchful sentinels are believed, in some circles, to serve as the eyes of the Hive's innermost covens, allowing powerful Wizards and Knights to watch over their domains. Others believe Shriekers are nothing more than weapons meant to guard Hive ritual sites.
There is nothing living to the Shrieker, but neither are they mechanical constructs in a classical sense. They seem to be dead mass, animated by the arcane will of the Hive. When a Shrieker is broken, its Void charge rips free of the hull to seek vengeance.
