{{cite}}'''Arguthrax the Magnificent''' (also known as the '''Despoiler of Kolchadon''', the '''Bloody Hand of Skerentis Minor''', and the '''End of Empires''') is a toadlike [[Daemon]] of [[Khorne]] and a Lord of [[Drakaasi]]. His symbol, a stylised six-fingered hand, appears on his chest in the form of a weeping scab, and is also branded on his followers. He rides within a cauldron of steaming blood carried by blinded slaves, and has been known to wield a gigantic mace in battle.

==History==
During the sacred Vel'Skan game, a massive slave breakout occured. Investigating the cause of the breakout, Arguthrax hoped to demonstrate that one of Venalitor's slaves was involved and thus convict him; but instead found a shard of an Ophidian Guard's sword embedded in the chief gaoler's body (which had in fact been left there by [[Kelhedros]] under Alaric's instructions). Thinking that Lord Ebondrake had orchestrated the escape to give the lords a common enemy to unite against, and enraged that he would profane Khorne's sacred game to get his crusade, Arguthrax began calling upon the other lords of Drakaasi to mete out justice upon Ebondrake. The assembled armies converged and fought each other in the Antediluvian Valley in week-long conflicts. Arguthrax's ultimate fate is unknown, but it is likely that he perished along with the other lords of Drakaasi.
