There is no power in the Azur Alliance greater than that of High Arbiter Aizen, the Arbiter of Shadows. To most who meet him in battle, he is death incarnate. This ancient creature absorbs the power of all those he has defeated, becoming a vessel full of souls lost in the dark.

Dark Azur Alliance Leader Warrior/Prowler - Lv. 90

Master of the Shadows: Aizen is always treated as though he is in Cover when a Seek roll is made.

Master Murderer: If Aizen kills a character with an attack while hidden, he remains hidden instead of being revealed by that attack.

Stealing Shadows: During the Upkeep Phase, Aizen can replace his Special Abilities with the Special Abilities of any Character that that he has previously destroyed. At the beginning of subsequent Upkeep Phases, Aizen can continue to have the Special Abilities of the dead character, or can revert to his own Special Abilities.

OO Stealth (Subterfuge, Effect)
Aizen becomes Hidden. Upkeep: O

OO Murderer of Gods (Subterfuge, Attack)

OOO Shadow Attack (Subterfuge, Attack, Movement)

This Attack can only be used if Aizen is Hidden.

OOO The Faceless God (Ki, Attack)

+++ARBITER AIZEN Arbiter Orders

Orders per Turn: 3
Influence Zone: 12 inches
Limitations: Aizen’s Arbiter Orders don’t affect Characters of equal or greater level, other Arbiters, or Summoned Characters.

oo - Opugnis (Special, Attack)
A friendly unit within Aizen’s Influence Zone makes a free hand-to-hand Attack.

oo - Obsidia (Special, Effect)
A friendly unit, that isn’t within an enemy unit’s Control Zone, within Aizen’s Influence Zone becomes Hidden until the end of the turn.

oo - Mortis (Special, Effect, Reactive)
Immediately after a friendly unit within Aizen’s Influence Zone destroys an enemy unit, they recover 1 Action Point.

Check out his Shadow Attack, absolutely brutal when hitting those mystics and support characters that like to hide at the rear of the pack, especially combined with his Master of Shadows.

90pts is 1/3 of an army, but Azur has access to cheap characters, so you could probably still field 4-6 models, depending.

Yeah, Aizen is a beast... I could see Aizen working well with ninjas as well. Trick will be trying to neutralize any of the characters that automatically remove hidden status from opponents. I think one of the Saints in the Church army does that. Might have to try running an Azur versus Wissenschaft battle sometime.

I'm going to pick him up later today at the store.  I'll have an army ready for Thursday or Saturday.

Coolness. What do you think would be a good combination with Valius' Battle Summoner Ability?

Any summons really.  Depends on what you are going for.  I like Alius, but it doesn't really fit with your theme.  Can't go wrong with Al-Djinn, solid summons.
