"The Drow Chainfighter is highly skilled in his unique martial art. His deadly chain screams through the air in lightning-fast arcs, wrapping up opponents and pulling them into deadly melee combat."[1]
Drow Chainfighters are Drow Guards from the Dungeons and Dragons portion of the continuity, and were included in the Glaun Bog Raiders expansion. Wizards of the Coast did not write lore bios for their Dungeons and Dragons Heroscape units, and so we know relatively little about these characters.

Abilities[]
Chain Grab:
After moving and before attacking with a Drow Chainfighter, you may choose one opponent's small or medium figure within 3 clear sight spaces whose base is no more than 6 levels above that Drow Chainfighter's height or 6 levels below that Drow Chainfighter's base. Roll the 20-sided die. If you roll a 9 or higher, place the chosen figure on any empty same-level space adjacent to that Drow Chainfighter. If the chosen figure is engaged when it is moved by Chain Grab, it will not take any leaving engagement attacks.
Hide in Darkness:
If a Drow Chainfighter is attacked with a normal attack and at least 1 skull is rolled, roll the 20-sided die. If that Drow Chainfighter is on a dungeon space add 3 to your die roll, if he is on a shadow space add 6 to your die roll. If you roll a 1 - 15, roll defense dice normally. If you roll a 16 or higher, ignore all damage that would be inflicted by the attack.
