Koatl's Claw is a constellation that came down to earth and stayed. Long ages in the wild Mortal Realms have thickened its starlight into something solid — muscle, scale, tooth, and a cold reptilian fury the more celestial Seraphon regard with unease. The Claw is Coalesced to the bone, and it is ruled by its saurus warrior-lodges, cohorts of spawned killers for whom the Great Plan has distilled to a single instinct: advance, and destroy whatever will not move aside.
As doctrine this is not subtle, and the Claw does not pretend otherwise. Confronted with almost any battlefield problem, the constellation answers with a charge — a landslide of armoured saurus that has overrun positions their defenders believed impregnable. More than one garrison has manned its walls against what it took for dumb beasts, only to learn too late that the animals were a disciplined army and the walls a brief inconvenience.
That underestimation is the Claw's oldest weapon. Enemies who mistake the cold-blooded silence of a saurus host for mindlessness never do so twice, for behind those flat golden eyes is a patient, spawned intelligence executing a design older than the fortress it dismantles. Among the Seraphon, Koatl's Claw is proof that order need not be elegant to be absolute.
Seraphon
Order of battle
The Koatl's Claw field the units of the Seraphon — a detachment from the roster:
Kindred formations
Other Seraphon formations
Dracothion's TailThe oldest and most orthodox of the Starborne constellations, said to have been guided to safe harbour in Azyr by the great celestial drake Dracothion when the slann fled the death of their first world. Its temple-ships hang above the realms like patient stars, and its hosts blaze into being precisely where the slann's dreams require them — often before the enemy knows there is a war to lose.
Fangs of SotekA Starborne constellation devoted to Sotek, the serpent-god whose coming the skink priesthood has prophesied since a world long dead. Skink-led and skink-swift, the Fangs strike like venom through a vein — sudden, fluid, and finished before the wound is felt.
Thunder LizardA Coalesced constellation that reveres the great beasts as the Old Ones' mightiest handiwork. Its warhosts march beneath thundering herds of stegadons and armoured behemoths, and its solution to most military problems weighs upward of thirty tons and is already moving.
