On the pitch

Swiftvine Glimmershard is a spite who appears, stabs and vanishes. Once a half, as the team's blitz, she moves beside any standing opponent within three squares, Stabs, and relocates up to three squares away, so she never dodges in or out. Stab is an unmodifiable armour roll, which suits a ST 2 player. The rest of the time Disturbing Presence penalises passes and catches near her, and Fend stops blockers following up.

At 110k she is an easy fit on a Gnome or Halfling inducement list, and Wood Elf sides in the Woodland League can take her too. She is best against elf and skaven ball carriers whose AV 7+ or 8+ her Stab actually breaks, and against passing teams, where standing near the thrower costs them a point on every throw. AV 7+ and ST 2 mean one block ends her drive, and Loner (4+) is on the card.
