Here is the first look at two of the all new Duchies of Vinci Heroes you can get alongside the launch of the Duchies of Vinci Faction Book in our upcoming launch campaign on MyMiniFactory's Frontiers! This book will detail the lore, history, and life of the Duchies of Vinci and will also include four all new narrative hero models to add to your Duchies of Vinci armies!
Gerepetto Collodi once had a bright future. He was one of the rising stars of the University of Ollenna, a brilliant young Inventor with groundbreaking ideas for improving Automa design and autonomy. He spent every waking hour developing prototypes, working faster than any of his peers.
But over the years, Gerepetto changed. He would talk to the stars and declare that his next Automa would be a “real boy”. Despite his genius, people around him were worried that he had been driven insane by constant exposure to high quantities of Mindstone.
Things came to a head when Gerepetto revealed his latest creation, an amazing upgrade of the classic Automa Brute model which he nicknamed Ponocci. When the Duchess of Ollenna demanded that he hand over the Automa to her army, the Inventor refused, claiming that Ponocci was his very own son.
In recognition for years of faithful service, the Duchess allowed him to leave rather than imprisoning him. Gerepetto now travels the peninsula with Ponocci, offering his services to anyone who can pretend not to notice that his “son” is a two-ton steel puppet.
Mantissa grew up in a small village in the border Duchy of Ortezza. Like many peasants of the Paretemi mountains, she learned to shoot a crossbow before she could walk. She made a name for herself as a child by winning several shooting contests. But when she was a teenager, most of Mantissa’s family was slain during a Daemon raid. She swore to avenge their deaths and became a mercenary, seeking employment with any Captain who was fighting Daemons.
Her path eventually led her to the Antenate Daemon Guard, a corps dedicated to protecting their Duchy from the Daemons that dwell within the chasm that runs through their city. Mantissa became a sharpshooter, trained in the use of the long-range Snipebow. She rose to fame during the Battle of the Bell Towers, during which she slew Change Harbinger Dreadrime with a single bolt, earning the nickname Ciapaspara, meaning “Headshot”.
She serves with the Daemon Guard to this day and is known to be a stern, intimidating figure, carrying many trophies from her most prestigious kills.
