History
Scholars of the Empire think that he was a student of W'soran who had fled from Nehekhara and made his way into the Old World. [1]
He is said to have become a rival to Melkhoir, each spending centuries trying to destroy the other. [1]
After the destruction of Vlad von Carstein at the Siege of Altdorf, Sethep saw his opportunity to conquer Sylvania. He gathered a army of the dead and marched on the town of Essen, hoping to add the population to the ranks of the living dead that made up his army. [1]
However, he was confronted by Konrad von Carstein leading to the Battle of Essen Ford where the two armies of undeath faced each other. As he sought to fight his way across the ford, Konrad decapitated the Necrarch and then swept away his creations with a summoned torrent of water. [1]
