Whispering Helm
Whispering Helm
Whispering Helms are gifts from the Hellbourne to their corrupted lieutenants. Although the helmets provide both armor and enhanced attacking power, as well as the ability to drain the life out of an enemy, it is the spirits within the helms-which both drive the wearer mad and can be called upon to dominate the minds of lesser creatures-that are most terrifying.

  • Cannot dominate Wild Hunters due to their innate Magic Immunity.
