There quite a few way to rewrite a simple memory (though the memory in question will be harder to erase if itās important
Ulgu/Shadow: Mindslip: Erase all memories of the caster in the targetās memory
Hysh/Light: Never named but there are stories of Magister disappearing and much later familiar Magister of Light appearing (The theory was that they could transfer minds of one of their dead to the victim to replenish their ranks)
Dwarf Runes: The High King Crown is supposed to transfer the memory (Not mind) of all previous wearer (Luckily the crown never fell in foul hands, that could have either spelt the doom of the Karaz Ankor or have rendered it useless)
The Flame of Asuryan from the High Elf: Itās a magical flame that is supposed to change the pretender that walk into it (Not confirmed as far as I remember)
Deamonic and Godly intervention can also change the memories of their target
Certain are supposed to be healable but never at 100%, I know for the Shadow one that itās not a stable erasure and mostly a conditioning to not think about it (So if faced with the truth itās supposedly possible to remember all of the blocked memory, which happen to a WH that was hunting a Lhamian Vampire iirc)
Yes, Traps can be made for āanyā magic, either by using āMagickā the Imperial Runes, Dwarf Runes or Elven Eltharin, those runes are not eternal though, and not always magical in nature (some being inscribed with special materials or filled with Divine power (which is still technically Magic)
Thatās a hard question, the Blightreaper is a Nurglite Chaos Rune weapon, but is it also a Chaos Possessed weapon ?
If it isnāt then itās remotly safe on the corruption side (Dieter Helsnicht is supposed to have one, he also used Shadow magic to make people forget him iirc) but i itās not, itās basically inviting a deamon to touch your mind with their bare touch
The Dwarfs are supposed to be more resistant to magic, but it just make the task harder, not impossible.
But there would be marks, some that though Sienna might not be able to discern (She isnāt particularly bright in that sort of subject I suspect) would be seen by a veteran Magister like Olesya
Aside from what @Heretical_Cactus already said (and I shall ignore that pretender jab)
SPOILER alert for Defenders of Ulthuan/Sons of Ellyrion books
There is in-lore insance where an unspecified spell/combination of spells (most likely Dhar) was used in order to suppress oneās memory:
Character Aās memories are suppressed so that said character unknowingly executes a secret plot. This memory suppression is also boobytrapped/warded in case someone tries to forcefully surface these memories.
I do want to note that Iām not Bretonnian, Iām a Dwarf of Karaz Ziflin, Engineer and Brewer by trade, but since we traded a lot with the Bretonnian, weāve learned their language and their odities (though we didnāt take to drinking water)
It is good to see that even in these everchanging times, some things can still be relied upon. Dwarven stubbornness is a prime example. That and your baffling favour of that bitter, urine-like beverage.
Can Witch Hunters use Maces? Iāve seen one picture of a WHC model using a Sword and Mace.
I just want to run around CCing everything while it bleeds to death, and the Crit uppercut for headshots.
Also WHC 1H Sword when?
A 1H Weapon combined with the Griffon-foot, where the Push-Attack is a Push > melee > shotgun blast, would be cool as hell. Imagine the Mace Push-Attack with this added on.
A 1H combined with a torch, so you can bleed and burn enemies would be nice too. Mace and Sword moveset?
You sure on that one? I thought this was the Vermintide 1 DLC and it was overrun by Skaven with only an Engineer being the sole survivor. Might check for Karak Norn and Ziflin.
How willing are Dwarves to do someone a favour? I might have to take some artistic freedom on this
Donāt know about that. Could be Asrai specific thing. It would not surprise me since they are swamp dwelling degenerates who turned their backs on the light of Asuryan and practice Dhar.
The heroes try to warn Karak Azgaraz of an Skaven attack by lighting a mountaintop warning beacon
The first mission is in a side stronghold āKhazid Kroā (Crow Village, most likely due to the undead population nearby attracting crows in the region)
A Dwarven keep visited in several Vermintide 1 DLC missions. The name means āHold of the Fearless Axesā in Khazalid. Nestled among the flinty peaks southeast of Ubersreik, it has stood here since long before the Empire was founded. In the Vermintide universe, the Hold has been overrun with Skaven and the only survivor is a brewe/engineer named Halgrim."
As @Heretical_Cactus mentioned thereās nothing stopping them using whatever they want and/or have at hand even though they more than likely are trained in the sword and rapier as well.
In witch hunterās handbook it states as such and even names weapons like maul and gudendag as potential tools of the trade, which is far from the elegant rapier that is so iconic.
Iām not sure what you mean by āTruer Asraiā in this case. Did you mean truer elves in general (Asrai, Asur, Druchii)? That is disputable and relative to whoās point of view you want to take. Since The Sundering and after War of the Beard, each elven faction went their own way and shaped their societies differentlyā¦
There is very little lore from the period before Aenarion so it is really hard to say what true actually means, but even at that point of time, there still was a clear destinction between Cadai and Cytharai, where some gods were highly worhispped, some less and some not at all.
This is still true for every faction. You canāt say that Asrai worship all the ancient pantheon and the Druchii only half. Every god is represented in their respective pantheonic mandalas, only in different hierarchy/priority, and based on these preferences Asur, Asrai and Druchii form their worship.
This question is not random as i am sure it has been answered before:
Why does Kerillian use the Moonfire Bow and not the Starfire Bow?
The discussion came up in the Steam forum again and I am super certain that Hedge previously posted the reason as given by Fatsharkās in house lore-elf/lore-wizard. But I can not find it.
