Old Ones

From Lexicanum

The Old Ones arrived to the Warhammer world millennia ago for mysterious purposes.

Their favoured servants were the Lizardmen, and first among these were the Slann. The Old Ones only dealt directly with the Slann of the 1st spawning who then delivered their orders to the younger Slann.

It was the Slann who, following the instructions of the Old Ones, changed and moulded the planet, bringing it closer to its sun and splitting its super continent into separate landmasses.

Necessary for the Old Ones were two warp gates, one located on the north pole and the other on the south pole. Unfortunately, for unknown reasons the gates began to malfunction and in the end collapsed. Through them the raw power of Chaos began to affect the world. The Old Ones desperately tried their best to contain the Daemons of Chaos but in the end failed and perished around -5600 IC.

Today the Old Ones are worshipped as gods by the Lizardmen.
