Trench Crusade Style - Tet'o Obsessed Squad

Trench Crusade Style Tet’o Obsessed Squad represents the final stage of mortal devotion before complete physical surrender to the abyss. These wretched figures are cult adherents whose bodies have begun to warp under prolonged exposure to eldritch influence, reshaped by whispered prayers, brine-soaked rituals, and the pressure of alien will.

Once human, the Obsessed now stagger forward as shambling apostles of Tet’o, their forms stretched, bloated, and softened as tentacular growths erupt from mouths, torsos, and limbs. Their posture is unsteady yet purposeful, as though driven by instinct rather than thought. In a Trench Crusade Style force, they fill the role of corrupted infantry, disposable zealots, objective holders, or advancing screens that soak fire while greater horrors close in.

This squad consists of 4 unique models, each sculpted with distinct mutations and poses to give the unit a varied, unsettling presence on the battlefield. Standing approximately 30–34mm from feet to eyes, they are scaled to represent warped human-sized combatants, making them ideal for use as cult infantry, corrupted civilians, or ritual-bound foot troops in grimdark and occult war games.

Their minimal equipment and exposed flesh make them exceptionally flexible proxies. They can represent melee-focused cultists, narrative NPC enemies, or corrupted workers driven mad by faith and fear. The organic detailing and flowing tentacles tie them seamlessly into abyssal or sea-themed armies without relying on overt iconography. Trench Crusade Style collections thrive on implied horror, and this squad delivers that tone in abundance.

Supplied unpainted and unassembled, these miniatures reward painters who enjoy working with organic textures, sickly flesh tones, and subtle weathering effects suited to mud-choked trenches and drowned battlefields.
