These two characters (aka Dramatis Personae) are coming to Necromunda and they bringing the bombs and the blades.

The Underhive is once again getting a pair of characters added to the ranks very soon. These two mercs have different skill sets that each have their own special use cases that result in the same outcome: making your enemies no more.

“The underhive is crawling with so many bounty hunters, outlaws, and hired guns, it’s a wonder there’s room left for innocent civilians at this point. This dubious cast of rum coves ply their deadly trade among the gangs of Necromunda, offering their unique take on the oldest job in the world – making people dead.”

Rex Spires

Rex is a man who’s all about bringing the “boom” to the Underhive. His name is certainly a play on words as that’s basically what he does in his free time. If you’re looking for a Merc who can bring the boom to town he’s your man.

“His sermons are booby traps, and his message is high-explosive death – he has access to Frag TrapsMelta TrapsBlasting ChargesDemo Charges, and his Demolitions rule, lets him set up to three booby traps during the pre-battle sequence. All for this hard learned knowledge, however, cost him an arm (well both of them actually) and a leg!”

Estus Jet

Up next we have another merc who’s on the cutting edge. Meet Estus Jet — she’s got the knife skills to pay the bills! Estus is rocking an assortment of weapons but be aware that she’s got some toxin-laced blades and isn’t afraid to use them.

She’s got a bit of a mysterious past as well:

” Estus Jet, a mysterious orphan named for the letters still legible on the collar she was wearing when Esmeralda, Holdmother of the Dust Falls Deep 9 Orphanarium, discovered her. Those letters? _EST _ SU_JE_T”

Pop quiz! What are those missing letters? Drop us a line in the comments if you figured out what the subject of this test turns out to be!

Both of these models are coming to the Hive courtesy of Forge World so keep an eye out for them in the near future.
