This blister pack contains two (2) Barrow Wights. All models are supplied unpainted and unassembled.
When a ruler of the Men who lived on the Downs perished, their people interred them in stone tombs carved deep into the hills, their biers heaped with gold and precious treasures. These kings and queens lay in silence in their stone caverns as their kingdoms passed into history and the ages of the world turned, until war returned once more to the North.
After the Last Alliance of Elves and Men and the fall of Sauron, the Witch-king fled to the North and there built the kingdom of Angmar. He sent dark spirits south to the Barrows and the skeletal forms of the long-dead rulers walked once more, bedecked with the gold and carrying dark blades, their actions directed by the dread will of the Witch-king.
In time, the Witch-king was defeated and his kingdom of Angmar destroyed, but the Barrow-wights remain within their tombs, luring the unwary to their doom.
