The Grand Theogonist was the leader of the Cult of Sigmar. He was widely regarded as Sigmar's representative on earth, and as a consequence held great religious and political influence within The Empire. Together with his two Arch Lectors, the Grand Theogonist commanded three votes on the Council of Electors.Needs Citation
