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 Cryptoliths, 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]]. | Wrathborn are mindless, enraged versions of their former selves, attacking former allies as readily as enemies.
