Spoilers: Black Arks, the December 2025 update, and the Eastern Colonies. No campaign outcome.
The Blessed Dread
Lokhir is Dark Elf Free-LC. The February 2023 FAQ lists him on the Warhammer II row and again under The Queen and the Crone and The Shadow and the Blade. Any of those Dark Elf releases grants him. The Blessed Dread grows Black Arks from major ports. Corsairs with two weapons want an infantry fight. Corsairs with handbows need a short range. Dreadspears hold when the corsairs need a line behind them.
Malekith's Black Arks are the race tool under every Dark Elf campaign. Lokhir's are the centre of this one. A port taken on a hostile coast is both a settlement and a place the arks can grow. Rakarth, on the same Free-LC gate, fills Beast Pens instead of arks.
The nautical rivalry in Update 7.0
Update 7.0, published 2 December 2025, calls Lokhir the Kraken Lord. The notes say the Tides of Torment announcement had put him opposite Sea Lord Aislinn, and that this pass reignites that nautical rivalry. He can teleport to his own Black Arks. The move arrives a full turn later, at a cost, and on a cooldown. If he takes the Eastern Colonies, the province where Aislinn starts, he unlocks Aislinn's Sea Lanes.
That rivalry is the update's pairing of two campaigns. Aislinn's pack is a separate purchase, Tides of Torment, and his Dragonships start by the Eastern Isles. A captured Eastern Colony is a province on Lokhir's map. The Sundering novels follow Malekith and Alith Anar through the elven civil war. This sea lane is the 2025 campaign change.
