Fantasy Skirmish: Moranna, Warrior Heir of House Pike

It’s been a bit of time since I’ve worked much on my Frostgrave backlog, but it’s always in the back of my mind, keeping the other oft-neglected flights of fancy in my mind warm.

I decided to get back to it recently, and picked up a bunch of the “2” boxes of Frostgrave kits. The 2 means not male presenting, and I had been putting the 2 kits off for ages because I didn’t like the face sculpts on the female warriors much.

Turns out, a lot of that was the paint. But they still have a bit of a feline characteristic to them that I’m not a huge fan of. Luckily, the kits are still amazing, and Moranna of House Pike is the first mini in the new push to get my Frostgrave/Mordheim/Five Leagues from the Borderlands collection back on track!

House Pike was established in the 82nd year of the New Imperial Reckoning, recognized officially by Imperial decree four years later. The house sigil is a horned fish in haurient position, and the house colors are yellow and red.

Moranna Pike is the daughter of Archibald and Lowaine Pike, Lord and Lady of the rocky, sea crested region in the northeast of the Empire. Lord Pike was noted as being fair to the small folk and brave in battle, and Lowaine was considered kind to all and a practiced hand with a blade when needed.

As the oldest child of House Pike, Moranna assumed mastership of the house guard in her mid teens, and has shown promise in battle. She is currently questing in the Plaguewald, hunting undead, and hoping to show herself worthy of knighthood upon her return to civilization.
