The Living Covenant

Template:Protbox This model is playable only in an Unlimited format.

The ancient holy scripture called the Covenant of Menoth was revered by Menoth's worshippers. When the world went to heck, the Covenant would have been destroyed by fire if it had not been for the attendant carrying it on his back. His spirit and vitality restored the burnt pages while eternally tying his fate to becoming the reborn Living Covenant.

Thoughts on The Living Covenant

The Living Covenant in a nutshell

The Living Covenant is what happens when the attendant reads a forbidden passage from the Covenant in an attempt to save the book from being destroyed. To keep the book intact, his vitality and very soul was permanently fused with the pages, giving the relic a new sentience and purpose in the world. Strong miracles backed up by unleashing holy wrath on the enemies of Menoth is the Living Covenant's style.

Sanctuary Gate can be a powerful ability but also requires a lot of forethought and planning. It can only be used at the start of the Living Covenant's activation. It's a strong "get out of jail free" card, but you really have to plan out the turn before, during, and after you use it to get the most of its effect.

Combos & Synergies

• Casters that like to play forward will appreciate the teleport. Most of the Feoras, Kreosses, as well as Reznik1 all fit this description, heck even Severius2 can caste Creator's Wrath to become a menace in melee!
• Kreoss1 and Feora4 in particular will appreciate the gun as well, for pop n' drop or Road to War purposes, respectively.
• Durant2 can heal it after it uses its miracles.

Drawbacks & Downsides

• No backup melee weapon. Gunfighter is nice and all, but sometimes you get stuck in melee with someone that can't be targeted by ranged attacks.
• You can’t take Covenant1.
• Cannot be free and is expensive to boot.
• Sanctuary Gate can only be used at the beginning of this models activation, you need to have the book already in place, relative to where you want the teleported model to end up. This can create some order of activation headache.

Tricks & Tips

• Teleport a model out of melee so it can charge in again, go after another target or allow other models to soften up that model with shooting/magic before re-engaging.
