About the game

What you do in a play session

If you're already a Sword & Sorcery fan, you know there's always room for more tactical variety. This Hero Pack introduces Onamor, a character with a dual nature that offers enough gameplay versatility to make you want to replay your entire campaign just to experience his other side. Onamor comes from a lineage of powerful wizards, but his true strength lies in how you choose to wield his arcane gifts.

You can take the path of the Chaotic Necromancer: a master of the dark arts who has traded his very essence to command the dead. This playstyle is perfect for those who love battlefield control and manipulating corpses to do their bidding. Alternatively, you can play as the Lawful Summoner. This version of Onamor focuses on dominating and banishing demons, turning supernatural entities into powerful weapons against other monsters. It’s a distinct tactical approach centered on control and redirection.

The pack is packed with everything you need to expand your hero roster. It includes high-quality plastic miniatures—featuring a special 'Ghost Soul' form—along with hero sheets, power cards, treasure cards, tokens, and the essential Soul Gem. Just a quick heads-up: this is not a standalone game! You absolutely need the Sword & Sorcery: Immortal Souls base game to play with Onamor. If you're looking to add a fresh layer of strategic depth and narrative flavor to your dungeon crawls, this hero pack is a fantastic addition to your collection.
