The progenitors of the Hive made a pact with their highest gods, the [[Worms]], who grant the powers of Darkness to the Hive.

[[Wrathborn]] are mindless, enraged versions of their former selves, attacking former allies as readily as enemies. They are marked by a sickly green-glowing miasma that hovers around their heads and leave behind a trail of noxious soulfire that can be used to track them. They are given increased strength and resilience by the Hive magic of the [[Cryptolith]]s, making them an obedient army of monstrosities in service of the Hive god herself. They are also able to traverse across dimensions utilizing the Cryptoliths as conduits into the [[Ascendant realm]] and must be drawn out with a [[Cryptolith Lure|Lure]] built by [[Uldren Sov|The Crow]]. | |||
