The Haunting Continues: Shroudborn Part 2 Has Materialized!
You thought the afterlife couldn't get more stylish? Think again! Following the soul-crushing success of our first Shroudborn release (The Forgotten Crusade), we're absolutely thrilled to unveil Part 2: The Sorrowful Lament. And let me tell you, these new spectral terrors are to die for. (I promise that's the last death pun for at least two paragraphs.)
Fleshcraft Studios has outdone themselves with this second wave of ethereal nightmares. While The Forgotten Crusade focused on martial might and military hierarchy, The Sorrowful Lament explores a more haunting, psychological aspect of the Shroud's terror. These aren't just spooky ghosts—they're emotional trauma given physical form, with a side of devastating magical abilities.
Meet Your New Nightmare Fuel
The Sorrowful Lament bundle introduces five new spectral horrors to add to your collection. Let's meet the ghastly gang that's just dying to join your shelf or gaming table:
The Lady in Black
The undisputed queen of the Shroudborn collection, this harbinger of inevitable doom is mounted on an impressive 60mm base that barely contains her overwhelming aura of dread. The Lady in Black doesn't just collect souls—she embodies the inescapable nature of death itself.
Mistmen have a saying about her: "When she comes, don't run—don't even breathe." Her execution yoke balanced across her shoulders carries chained coffins and blades, while her flowing spectral form creates an impression of silent, inevitable movement. When this figure hits your gaming table, your players might just make their excuses and head home early.
The Sorrowbound Howler
Ever wondered what would happen if you combined a ghostly artillery piece with eternal torment? Wonder no more! The Sorrowbound Howler is a lumbering behemoth of malice and despair, its massive 80mm base housing a spectral war machine both horrifying in design and purpose.
This colossal necrotic cannon is operated by tormented spirits bound in chains, its jaw-shaped scythe weapon not cutting but smashing all in its path. The Howler comes in two display configurations—standard and actively firing—allowing you to showcase different aspects of its grim purpose. It's the perfect centerpiece for any tabletop encounter where "total party kill" is on the menu.
The Harrowing Wailcaster
What's a spectral army without a banshee artillery piece? The Harrowing Wailcaster serves as one of the most destructive weapons in the Shroud's arsenal. With its cracked, doll-like mask and flowing, tattered shroud, it exudes an unsettling aura of despair.
The real showstopper is the glowing, spiked cage it hurls with deadly precision, brimming with writhing necrotic energy that explodes on impact. Mounted on a 32mm base, this figure may be smaller than some of its Shroudborn kin, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in nightmare fuel.
The Wailing Widows
This 10-figure set brings the mournful shades of those who lost everything in the Shroud. Each unique model showcases a different aspect of grief sharpened into a weapon, their spectral veils and jagged sickles ready to harvest the living.
Mounted on 32mm bases, these figures are perfect for creating that "surrounded by wailing doom" vibe that every good DM strives for. Their anguished wails are said to chill the hearts of even the bravest warriors. Use them as skirmishers, objective holders, or just to make your players question their life choices.
The Mistmaidens
These ethereal sirens are the enchantresses of the Shroud, luring their prey with haunting melodies that promise solace but deliver only doom. This set of beautifully haunting figures shifts between ghostly forms and illusions, confusing and disorienting their victims before striking with terrifying precision.
Their presence is unnerving, and their songs pierce the hearts and minds of those who hear them. To encounter a Mistmaiden is to risk succumbing to despair, as their haunting voices resonate with the pain of countless lost souls. Perfect for adding a feminine yet deadly element to your undead forces.
A Painter's Dream (Or Nightmare)
The Shroudborn aesthetic continues to impress with The Sorrowful Lament. The flowing, ethereal teal energy creates a unified look across all models while still allowing each character type to maintain its unique identity. These figures are a painter's dream, offering endless possibilities for experimenting with:
- Spectral energy effects
- Ghostly translucence
- Ethereal OSL (Object Source Lighting)
- Weathered metal on chains and weapons
- The specific shade of "existential despair teal" that defines the collection
Each model pushes the boundaries of what's possible with 3D printing, capturing ethereal wisps, flowing spectral fabric, and intricate details that would be impossible with traditional manufacturing techniques.
More Than Just Miniatures
As with all Fleshcraft Studios releases, The Sorrowful Lament isn't just about beautiful miniatures. Each figure comes with:
- Rich background lore to inspire your campaigns
- Multiple options for incorporating them into your existing adventures
- The ability to make your players reconsider their life choices when you place them on the table
