New Slaanesh LL

[TcT Goth98]

Would you guys prefer Styrkaar of the Sortsvinaer or Dechala the Denied One? Maybe we can get both 1 as a paid LL, one as a free LL, and The Masque of Slaanesh as the LH? Thoughts?

I feel like the Masque would the LL since she's like one of the only well known Slaaneshi character, other than Sigvald and I suppose Fulgrim and even Lucius if we deep into 40k a bit. The other two seem like really minor characters, though they do have cool designs.

Eh, she'd be a boring basic LL though.

Maybe, but it's slim pickings for Slaanesh characters. But then again maybe they could use the opportunity to give characters like Strykaar and Dechala some time in the limelight.

Don't know much about either of them though, other than what they look like, or what they ride in Strykaar's case. Had to look through lists Slaanesh characters to find Strykaar, and only heard of Dechala through the conversations of everyone's favorite Elf Man.

Only boring if she's just like every other Herald (lust and innuendo to the overblown and excessive Nth degree) - her Endless Dance curse will hopefully prevent that.
Masque is already listed as a Legendary Lord and the snake-mutant/snake-rider characters are listed as Legendary Heroes.

Snakes are very likely as a new mount option since they're one of the only units Slaanesh even has left, so the LH would have to be a snake-mutant to stand out. Unless they do upgrade one to LL, since there is precedent for that.
Plus they already have Medusae, give one some extra arms and swords and they'll have Dechala.
Boop snoots at own risk.

I like the lust innuendos for Slaanesh Heralds. It's Slaanesh!

[TcT Goth98]

So what about the LH? Thoughts on who it can and should be?

[feillyne]

Masque or bust. Dechala FLC. Can't care much about mortals.

Eh, it would most likely be reverse. DLC Dechala and FLC Masque.

[AurumHawke]

Snake-lady is a very obvious choice unless they upgrade her to LL for DLC+FLC combo like Nurgle. The love-hate triangle with Slaanesh is true drama, and strong motive to go out and slaughter the world.
Mechanics-wise, one of the non-mutants so they can showcase the (likely) new mount option. Just not sure yet which one of those is more interesting.

"They will never know the safe word" (there never was one to begin with).
Mostly for variety's sake, having some unique athletic or acrobatic ones would help spice it up.
Like how Keepers try too hard to be like Heralds on diplomacy but are suitably theatre-camp in battle.
