<hr />
<div>Vlad von Carstein was the first and greatest of the [[Vampire Counts]] of [[Sylvania]]. It was he who tainted the once human aristocracy of Sylvania with the curse of Undeath, and in so doing created an [[Undead]] kingdom in the heart of the Empire. <br />
<br />
Count Vlad was a towering figure of a man, with a mane of black hair and piercing eyes. Those who met him and survived described him as having a feral charm and being extremely intelligent, but with an evil temper that could turn into a berserk fury if he was thwarted in his endeavours. It was said that at such times only his wife [[Isabella von Carstein|Isabella]] could calm him without blood being spilt. <br />
<br />
The first Vampire Count of Sylvania, Vlad had designs not only to create a realm of the dead, but also sought dominion over the living. Vlad waged his war in order to become [[Emperor]], just as the other claimants of the time. With the might of the [[Empire]] at his command, he would have become one of the most powerful rulers in the world, and who can say how far Vlad's dominion of Undeath would have stretched across the globe? That he came so close to achieving his ambition should have been a warning to the other [[Elector Counts]], but as soon as Vlad was destroyed they forgot the lessons of the first war and fell to bickering again, paving the way for Vlad's unholy successors. These descendants have continued to assail the Empire to this day.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Vlad_von_Carstein&diff=6806Vlad von Carstein2008-01-25T20:47:32Z<p>Dr Death: New page: Vlad von Carstein was the first and greatest of the Vampire Counts of Sylvania.

<hr />
<div>The last and most dangerous of the [[von Carstein]] [[Vampire Counts]] is Mannfred, a subtle, devious and treacherous individual. Some say he was awake when the von [[Carstein ring]] was stolen and laid a glamour upon the sentries to prevent them from noticing. While [[Konrad von Carstein]] ravaged the Empire in an attempt to emulate the great [[Vlad von Carstein|Vlad]], Mannfred laid low and studied the art of [[necromancy]]. It is said that he journeyed as far as the [[Kingdom of the Dead]] in search of the secrets of unlife, returning to [[Castle Drakenhof]] with a fund of dark lore. After Konrad's death he became the undisputed ruler of the [[Sylvania|Sylvanian]] hosts, but for a full decade he did nothing, letting the various contenders for the Imperial throne think that the Sylvanian threat was over, giving them time to fall out among themselves.<br />
<br />
Once the [[Empire]] was again racked by civil war, Mannfred deemed it time to strike. His [[Undead]] legions crossed the Sylvanian border in winter and marched through the snows to [[Altdorf]], putting any villagers they met to the sword and adding them to the ranks of their army. In the infamous [[Winter War]] of 2032 he defeated several hastily assembled Imperial armies which attempted to block his path. Victory followed victory and mere rumours of Mannfred's approach were enough to send villagers fleeing from their homes to freeze to death the snow.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Mannfred&diff=6804Mannfred2008-01-25T10:22:13Z<p>Dr Death: Getting the page up</p>

<div>Orion is the consort-king of Athel Loren. At the height of his power in midsummer, Orion is a terrifying being of majesty and power. He stands over 10' tall, and his lithe, green-tinged body ripples with barely contained anger. As the moons align overhead on midsummer's eve, a beautiful cloak crafted by his Queen is draped over his shoulders, and the great horn of the Wild Hunt is placed reverently before him. As the time of the conjunction draws near, he takes up his weapons from their shrine within the Oak of Ages. At midnight, Athel Loren goes utterly silent – not a creature stirs – for all know that the ride of the Wild Hunt has come.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Lord_Kroak&diff=6801Lord Kroak2008-01-21T16:44:31Z<p>Dr Death: </p>

<div>The [[White Lions]] claim '''Korhil''' to be the mightiest Elf in all of [[Ulthuan]], and certainly his strength and stature is legendary. Yet, Korhil is no lumbering giant, for he wields his long axe with dexterity and grace that makes even his fellow White Lions appear cumbersome. His honest demeanour and noble bearing have won him many friends among the Lords of Ulthuan and other races besides. <br />
<br />
Such is Korhil's integrity, and the trust that [[Phoenix King]] [[Finubar]] places in him, that the Captain of the White Lions has led the armies of the Phoenix King on a number of occasions, acting as both Finubar's champion and general.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Alith_Anar&diff=6796Alith Anar2008-01-21T16:38:25Z<p>Dr Death: New page: There are many stories of Elven heroes of the Nagarythe from the time of the Sundering, of brave and valiant warriors, of remarkable deeds, and of battles against the darkest foes....</p>
<hr />
<div>There are many stories of Elven heroes of the [[Nagarythe]] from the time of [[the Sundering]], of brave and valiant warriors, of remarkable deeds, and of battles against the darkest foes. The most popular tales concern '''Alith Anar''', the Shadow King. <br />
<br />
Alith Anar's adventures are shared throughout the courts of the [[Asur]], each a tale of courageous defiance against [[Malekith]] and the [[Druchii]]. The tales of the Shadow King that stem from the years following the destruction of [[Anlec]] are, by now, undoubtedly a blend of fable and reality. It is impossible to say for sure which are true and which are invention, for the Nagarythe are understandably secretive about their history since the Sundering.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Tyrion&diff=6795Tyrion2008-01-21T16:36:22Z<p>Dr Death: New page: Prince '''Tyrion''' is the greatest living warrior of the High Elves.

<hr />
<div>Prince '''Tyrion''' is the greatest living warrior of the [[High Elves]]. He is a descendant of the first [[Phoenix King]] and traces his line from [[Aenarion]]'s firstborn son, [[Morelion]]. He is so valiant and skilled that some Elven bards say that he is Aenarion reborn. Since his meteoric rise to fame during the [[Great Chaos Incursion]], many have spoken in hushed tones of his destiny to lead the High Elves towards a new and glorious future, and perhaps one day to take the [[Phoenix Crown]]. If Tyrion hears such gossip, he pays it no heed, for his only concern is the safety and protection of [[Ulthuan]] and the [[Everqueen]]. He is unswervingly loyal to the current Phoenix King, [[Finubar the Seafarer]]. <br />
<br />
In the years since the Great Incursion, Tyrion has busied himself strengthening Ulthuan's armies and all know that whenever danger comes to the High Elves island home, the enemy will be met by Tyrion. He is the protector of the Everqueen and the defender of all Ulthuan.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Balthasar_Gelt&diff=6792Balthasar Gelt2008-01-21T16:30:09Z<p>Dr Death: Blurb nicked from the GW site- give me a buzz if there's a problem with that</p>
<hr />
<div>The transmutation of vile metals into pure gold, the noblest metal of all, had always fascinated '''Balthasar''' and, driven by his obsession, he rose quickly through the ranks of the [[Gold Order]]. Balthasar's research into new formulations of black powder even made him popular with the [[College of Engineers]], an organisation that often dismisses magic as superstitious nonsense. <br />
<br />
A freak explosion in the laboratory almost ended Balthasar's quest for knowledge. From that day, Balthasar has only ever been seen swathed in shimmering, metallic robes and wearing a golden mask. Some say his entire skin turned to gold while others tell that he is horribly disfigured, though the truth of the matter is unknown. One thing is certain: the accident only furthered his will to succeed and increased his powers. After defeating Thyrus Gormann of the Bright Order in ritual duel, Balthasar became [[Supreme Patriarch]], replacing the prominence of Fire with that of Metal. Since that day, the new Supreme Patriarch, riding a Pegasus and surrounded by a golden halo, has appeared on many battlefields where the Emperor's soldiers are fighting.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Josef_Bugman&diff=6791Josef Bugman2008-01-21T16:24:50Z<p>Dr Death: New page: A famous dwarven brewer whose brewery was destroyed by goblins, '''Josef Bugman''' has produced some of the most notoriously heady ales in the old world.

<br />
Well if [[:Category: Vampire]] deals with all matters to do with the [[Vampire Counts]] army then i thoroughly agree with you. However [[:Category: Vampire]] could also be useful for exclusively Vampire matters- a place to put articles on bloodlines and named vampires: a 'creature' category if you will. I do beleive the supercategory should be Vampire Counts since it is the name for the army in question.<br />

Just out of general interest- what's the scheme with Disambiguation pages and templates and such like. I've gone searching for them but there doesnt appear to be any.

[[Image:Skink Skrimishers 5th Edi.jpg|thumb|right|Skink Skrimishers (5th Edition)]]<br />
'''Skinks''' are a smaller race of [[Lizardmen]], weaker and possessing less martial prowess than the larger [[Saurus]]. They are more likely to fight with poisoned [[Blowpipe]]s or [[Javelin]]s than with hand to hand weapons. Sometimes - especially in the Southlands - Skinks also utilisize [[Shortbow]]s. Generally Skinks prefer - if forced to - to fight as [[Lizardmen Skink Skrimishers|skrimishers]]. If they form rank-and-file regiments, they are often accompanied by [[Lizardmen Kroxigor|Kroxigors]]. Some Skinks drive [[Lizardmen Salamander|Salamanders]] into battle, ride on flying [[Lizardmen Terradon|Teradons]] or on a palaquin on the back of a giant [[Lizardmen Stegadon|Stegadon]]. A very special breed of Skinks are the so-called [[Lizardmen Chameleon Skink|Chameleon Skinks]], which are even more sneaky than the average Skink. <br />
<br />
'''Skinks''' where created by the [[Old Ones]] merely not for fighting but to assist the [[Slann]] and work as architects, diplomats, interpreters, scribes ecetera. Some Skinks are gifted with magical power and become [[Skink Shaman]]s. <br />
<br />
'''Skinks''' marked by their snake god Sotek with his red mark are more warlike than others and sometimes even become Cold One Riders like [[Tichi-Huchi's Raiders]] who act as [[Dogs of War]]. <br />

'''Skaven Clanrats''' are a unit in the [[Skaven Army List]]. They are the standard and most basic [[Skaven]] warrior and form the bulk of most Skaven armies,coming in regiment style formations. They lack discipline and power but come in large groups and, as every Skaven will tell you, safety in numbers is a high priority in Skaven tactics. The Skaven hierarchy places Clanrat Warriors near the top, with only [[Stormvermin]] and the [[Skaven Warlord|Warlord]] himself above them.<br />
<br />
Skaven Clanrat regiments may be taken as a [[Core choice]].<br />

<hr />
<div>{{Stub}}<br />
<br />
An '''Ogre''' is a ten feet tall, and about half as wide, humanoid creature, with large arms and legs, its large body topped by a snarling head (with little in the way of a neck to separate the two). A typical Ogre is usually bald as a boulder, although many of them posses a beard cultivated to capture what morsels trying to escape the ogres mouth.<br />
<br />
Ogres are always hungry. They eat anything - and anybody - they can and destroy anything they cann't eat or use for their own purpose because they have a big hunger for destruction and violence as well as for food. The only thing, ogres will respect is power and they tend to bully anybody weaker then themselves. <br />
<br />
Most of the Ogres live - or dwell - in the [[Ogre Kingdoms]], east of the Dark Lands, in the Mountains of Mourn, together with the [[Gnoblars]], a greenskinned, goblinoid slave-race. Ogres also have strong nomadical tendencies and tend to take long journeys all around the Warhammer world, where they fight as Mercenarys in the [[Dogs of War]] Armies or for any general who will pay them in food. <br />
<br />
The rulers of the Ogre Kingdoms - and tribes - are called [[Ogre Tyrant]]s and rule by brute force. The [[Ogre Butcher]]s are their Shamans as well as their cooks, who create the meal for the great feasts of the Ogre tribes and use the [[Gut Magic]] - a gift of the [[Great Maw]] - to strength their fellow Ogres and destroy their enemies. <br />
<br />
Any adult male Ogres are called [[Ogre Bull]]s, and these Bulls form the bulk of any Ogre horde i.e. army. Some of the Ogre Bulls belief themselfes harder then their fellow Ogres, because of their ability to eat inagreable things like stones or iron without becoming ill. These Ogres call themselfes [[Iron Gut]]s, wear some plundered armour and wield giant doublehanded weapons. [[Ogre Leadbelcher]]s have managed to get their hands on a cannon, mostly salvaged from an overtaken enemy's artillery emplacement or bought from the [[Chaos Dwarfs]] and have learned, to fire these gun barrels to create havoc as well as lots of black smoke and deafening noise. <br />
<br />
[[Category:Ogre Kingdoms]]</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Dwarf&diff=6614Dwarf2007-09-07T14:49:17Z<p>Dr Death: Dwarf moved to Dwarfs: pluralising</p>
<hr />
<div>The '''Dwarfs''' are an ancient race, although not quite as old as the [[Elves]]. They make use of highly advanced technology including superb armour and powerful war machines. They are masters of the forge and metal working, making use of many minerals and metals that few other races even know of. They live in a highly structured society centred around their vast underground Keeps and mines in the [[World's Edge Mountains]]. They are under constant attack from [[Orc]]s, [[Goblin]]s and [[Skaven]] and have a long history fighting them. In close combat, Dwarfs are more than a match for most other creatures and they tend to prefer combat to ranged attacks and wild magic, making use instead of runic magic which their [[Runemaster]]s wield with extreme dexterity and ability.<br />
<br />
Currently, the Dwarf way of life is under threat as more and more of their major Keeps fall to attacks from foreign enemies and the ancient sagas are sung in the half empty halls of the few surviving keeps. They trade the raw materials and finished goods for food and other goods they cannot easily acquire. The skills of the Dwarfs at working materials have not, however, fallen like their empire, meaning that their goods will attract a high price. Good farming land is scarce, and Dwarfs do not make good farmers, but they are enthusiastic hunters and often feast on the meat of beasts they have killed while roaming the mountains around them. Generally grain and fruit are brought into the mountains by traders and given metalwork and gold in return.<br />
<br />
Dwarfs are also famous for their ale. It is so nutritious that they can survive on it for weeks and stored in vast quantities in huge warehouses, each keep being proud of their efficacy and flavour. They can also make 'rock bread', a tough mixture of wild grain and crushed rocks, but this, according to the Dwarfs, requires a lot of ale to wash down properly.<br />
<br />
==History of the Dwarfs==<br />
The Dwarfs have a long and glorious history involving a good deal of fighting and war as well as amazing technological advancements and powerful alliances and peace <br />
treaties. These are shown in the [[Dwarf Timeline]].<br />
<br />
==Society of the Dwarfs==<br />
The general principle of Dwarf society is that of three things: age, wealth and skill. The more of these that you have, the higher you are in the scale of Dwarfdom. Dwarfs never boast of their family achievements, more accurately they set the record straight and proclaim their ancestors' greatness by their wealth and skills.<br />
<br />
The other major part of Dwarfism is their beards. They are immensely proud of them and attempt to never cut or trim them, and the Dwarf with the longest beard is usually seen as the leader. One of the greatest insults to a Dwarf is to take off their beard, as the High Elves did to the Dwarf ambassadors sent to attempt to preserve peace, thereby initiating the [[War of the Beard]].<br />
<br />
Dwarfs have an affinity for the past and constantly seek to remember their fore bearers by repairing and maintaining their products. All Dwarfs know how to reforge an ancient blade and are constantly trying to incorporate ancient relics into their newer works.<br />
<br />
They also enjoy hoarding their hard earned treasure and gold. When a Dwarf dies, his wealth goes to his family and so passed down the generations. This process ensures the memory of the dead and secures a Dwarf's supply of money for a more desperate time. Often a Dwarf will measure his security by how far off the ground they are when they sit on their treasures. Often the supplies of the stronghold itself are so huge as to be a massive attraction to Orc and Goblin hordes willing to take the risk of death to gain huge amounts of gold.<br />
<br />
Dwarf society is also based around honour, centered around the bond or promise. A Dwarf will always keep a promise, even if it costs him to do it. A Dwarf will even honour an ancestor centuries ago. Dwarfs also expect others to keep their word and seek out recompense for oathbreakers.<br />
<br />
==Anatomy of the Dwarfs==<br />
Dwarfs are short, very short. This is sometimes a point of humour for other races, although said directly to a Dwarf will often end in pain for the offender. As such, they have large muscles and support a stumpy, squat body and this means they are often out of the reach of any other swordsman, and such would be disadvantaged. Their use of the axe as their primary weapons means they can get into combat more easily by using the axe as a shield until the last moment. They also tend to weigh a lot more than an equivalent human or elf. Their extra weight and lack of height means that few, if any, Dwarfs would even ride a beast, let alone a horse. Dwarfs occasionally ride in advanced [[Dwarf Gyrocopter|Gyrocopter]]s through the sky to attack their foes with a small cannon. Occasionally Dwarfs are mounted on Dwarf-drawn thrones if they are of sufficient rank and power.<br />
<br />
Dwarfs do not use magic like the High Elves or Humans, but make use of tough Runemagic. This magic is closely related to their craftsmanship as they use their runes to aid their machinery. Most knowledge is passed down by word of mouth, although the most powerful runes are known to but a select few.<br />
<br />
==Dwarf Army List==<br />
The Dwarfs make use of large numbers of super tough infantry as well as highly advanced technology, including black powder weaponry and thick armour. They are analysed in the [[Dwarf Army List]].<br />
<br />
==Dwarf Quotes==<br />
All quotes made by any members of the Dwarfs: [[Dwarf Quotes]].<br />

'''State Troops''' form the basis of all armies of [[The Empire]]. They are professional soldiers equipped at the expense of the state to which they answer. State troops are divided by the weaponry they carry, of which there are five common varieties: [[Empire Halberdiers|Halberdiers]], [[Empire Swordsmen|Swordsmen]], [[Empire Spearmen|Spearmen]], [[Empire Handgunners|Handgunners]] and [[Empire Crossbowmen|Crossbowmen]].<br />
<br />
Of these five divisions, each [[Elector Count]] is required to keep a standing force of Halberdiers the other groupings vary from state to state according to the tactics employed.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Malekith&diff=6565Malekith2007-09-03T15:04:46Z<p>Dr Death: </p>

<br />
[[Image:Hexenkönig.JPG|thumb|right|Malekith the Witchking on back of his Dragon]]<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Malekith''' is the son of the legendary first king of the [[Elves]], [[Aenarion]], and the witch [[Morathi]]. Because of his direct blood relation to the [[Druchii]] he was denied rule of the elven kingdoms, despite his rightful place as [[Phoenix King]]. He tried to pass through the Eternal Flame, but was burned, proof of his unworthiness to be king. Then began a long civil war in his attempt to take the crown of Ulthuan by force. He and his followers were driven out of [[Ulthuan]], making their way to the cold wastes of [[Naggaroth]]. There they settled and erected their black cities, including the capital [[Naggarond]]. <br />
<br />
'''Malekith''' calls himself the Witchking and rides a mighty black [[Dragon]] into battle. ruling the lands of the [[Dark Elves]] while plotting against the day when he will take the throne as Phoenix King.<br />
<br />
In the past, befor he got his black dragon Seraphon, Malekith drove in a [[Chariot]] pulled by [[Cold One]]s. In that time he ordered all other battle charriots in Naggaroth to be destroyed, so that he owned the only remaining exemplar. Now and today [[Dark Elf Cold One Chariot|Cold One Chariots]] are a normal Part of the [[Dark Elf Army List|Dark Elf Army]] again. <br />

'''Halflings''' are a race of small humanoids that live in a region of [[The Empire]] known as [[The Moot]]. They are roughly half the height of a fully grown man (hence Halflings) and are a peaceful and rustic folk, not naturally inclined to adventure or the ways of war. They have great fondness for the simple comforts of good food and drink, a taste which lends them a rather wide frame (though they are still delicate by comparison to [[Dwarfs]]). The Halflings do have their own [[Elector]] in the governing of The Empire, [[The Elder of the Moot]], a position that currently lies with [[Hisme Stoutheart]]. On occassion, Halflings are known to go to war with the rest of the Imperial forces and usually serve either in a catering capacity (where their great fondness for culinary pursuits can be exploited) or else as trappers or scouts, for Halflings are adept at moving through undergrowth undetected.<br />
<br />
== Inspiration ==<br />
Halflings are heavily inspired by the race of Hobbits in the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, from their physical description through to their habits and abilities.</div>Dr Deathhttps://whfb.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=Grom_the_Paunch&diff=6548Grom the Paunch2007-09-02T20:00:24Z<p>Dr Death: New page: '''Grom the Paunch''' was a Goblin Warlord who famously ate a meal of Troll-meat.

<div>'''Grom the Paunch''' was a [[Goblin]] Warlord who famously ate a meal of [[Trolls|Troll]]-meat. This act not only gave him life-long indigestion and terrible flatulence but also granted him some regenerative abilities. Grom attacked [[The Empire]], crossing the [[Reik]] and came to the sea where he ordered the construction of a fleet of ships and he and his horde set sail for [[Ulthuan]]. <br />

<br />
'''Archer stakes''' although known as '''Dragon teeth''' are used specially by [[Bretonnian Peasant Bowman]]. They may drive them into the ground in front of their defensive position, to get even a little cover and shield themselves basically against attacks of hostile knights. The idea of that is, to stop them trying to ride just over the [[Bretonnian Peasants]] with their warhorses between two shots. <br />
<br />
In time of siege this tactic is allthough adopted by other Armies than the [[Bretonnia]]n to strength their earthworks and defend their prized warmachines from attacks that are carried out by the defenders. On the other hand the defenders can place the stakes into the ground at the foot of their castle or city walls, to make the fall from the wall even more unpleasant - aka deadly - to those who try to scale the walls with ladders or ropes and grapplin' hooks. How effectiv that tactic can be was shown by the [[Grand Theogonist]] [[Wilhelm III]] as he managed to kill [[Vlad von Carstein]] - and himself - during the siege of [[Altdorf]] by throwing the [[Vampire]] and himself onto the stakes down in the trench.<br />

<div>{{Interlex|Slaangor}}<br />
'''Slaangors''' are [[Beastmen]] dedicated to the Chaos god [[Slaanesh]]. <br />
<br />
It was reported by [[Felix Jaegar]], who interrupted such a dark, perverse and blasphemous ritual in the Great Forest together with his companion [[Gotrek Gurnisson]], that there the Beastmen came out of the deeps of the forests and participate in orgies of human followers of Slaanesh. <sup>1</sup> It may be supposed, that these stories refer to this breed - the '''Slaangors'''.<br />
<br />
As well, as the average [[Bestigor]]s they are armed with the best weapons aviable in the War Herd. Also Slaangors tend to wear stolen/looted jewellery and capes of furs.<br />

'''Bestigors''' are the largest and most ferocious [[Gor]]s of a horde, and are also better equipped with armour and better weaponry - for example helbeards. Units of bestigors can also take specific marks of chaos, and as such gain bonusses attributed with their [[Chaos Gods|patron]].<br />
<br />
In the most cases the [[Beastmen Chieftain|Chieftain]] of the War Herd comes from this breed. <br />
