History
Storm of Chaos
Following the defeat of Volkmar the Grim by Archaon, he was unanimously elected as the head of the Cult by the Arch-Lectors. [1]
He was however accused of being more concerned with temporal rather than spiritual glory by the grass roots clergy and Luthor Huss even nailed a gold-painted effigy to the door of the Cathedral of Sigmar in Nuln on protest of his materialism. Esmer himself preached forgiveness and reservation in relation to the protests against him. [1]
Esmer was later forced by the Arch-Lectors to resign his office, handing it back to the renowned Volkmar the Grim and fleeing to Marienburg.
