Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Nighthaunt Lady Olynder, Mortarch of Grief (1 Miniature)

The Queen of Sorrow Takes the Field

Few models in the Age of Sigmar range command attention like Lady Olynder. Floating above a tide of ghostly handmaidens, veiled and wreathed in spectral grief, the Mortarch of Grief is one of the most striking centrepiece miniatures Games Workshop has produced for the Nighthaunt faction. She is grief made manifest — the supreme ruler of the Nighthaunt, cursed by Nagash himself to feel the sorrows of all the dead for eternity. On the tabletop, she leads the procession of the damned. On the painting desk, she is a masterclass in layered ghostly effects, flowing robes, and eerie ethereal light.

A Centrepiece Kit Worth Every Hour

This multi-part plastic kit builds one Lady Olynder, Mortarch of Grief — a named character and supreme leader of the Nighthaunt army in Warhammer Age of Sigmar. The sculpt is layered and dynamic, with trailing grave-sand, weeping spirits, and a haunting veil that rewards careful painting. As a multi-part kit, it offers the quality and detail that experienced hobbyists expect from a centrepiece model, and requires plastic glue and hobby tools for assembly. Bases are included. Paints, brushes, and glue are sold separately.

Who Should Add Her to Their Collection

Lady Olynder belongs on the shelf of any Nighthaunt collector — whether you are building a competitive army, a narrative procession for matched or Crusade play, or simply hunting the finest ghost models in the range to paint. She is a legitimate challenge for intermediate to advanced painters: the translucent robes, layered ethereal glow, and intricate detail on her handmaidens make her an exceptional showcase piece. Gift buyers take note — for the Age of Sigmar hobbyist in your life who already has troops on the table, a named character of this calibre is always welcome.
