When the Kaorti see it necessary to guard themselves more directly than merely secure prisoners for their own means, they are known to more carefully pick their thralls, drilling and shaping them using more advanced magics in order to make a more suitable fighting force. They then outfit them with mystically-enhanced weapons - since these guards are usually sequestered in the Kaortis cysts, they take advantage of the peculiar energies and geometries held therein to cut corners and grant them weapons that only function inside the cyst, but when used there they can be very effective - stunning or withering their foes to great effect. If the Kaorti were more interested in more straightforward tactics, these thralls show what they could be capable of, thankfully they hide in the shadows and plot in the depths, for now. Instinct: To protect

• Mystically subdue an opponent
• Mutate to gain a supernatural ability
• Ring a bell to summon reinforcements
