Plaguebearer
The Plaguebearer is a specialist unit that spreads corrosive ink across the battlefield, dealing area damage over time. Folded from pitch-soaked paper, these units are dangerous to friend and foe alike if not carefully managed.

Strategy
Plaguebearers are area-denial specialists. Use Ink Burst on choke points or on top of clustered enemy groups. Be careful not to use them too close to your own units. They pair well with Pikemen who can hold enemies in place while the DoT ticks. Plaguebearers are weak individually, so protect them.
