Mortarch
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
Revision as of 01:14, 16 July 2015 by Peter of Loren (talk | contribs)
The Mortarchs where created by Nagash after his resurrection in 2524 IC. They numbered nine and where meant to be replacements for his original Nine Dark Lords- his most trustworthy servants in the days of old.[1]
Only three Mortarchs where members of the original Nine Dark Lords:
The other six joined for various reasons:
- Dieter Helsnicht wanted to learn necromancy from Nagash.
- Luthor Harkon joined Nagash out of boredom.
- Walach Harkon saw an opportunity for glory in battle.
- The Nameless (probably Constant Drachenfels) was promised the return of his memory.
- Mannfred von Carstein decided his schemes where not worth undertaking now that Nagash was around.
- Vlad von Carstein was resurrected from the dead and only joined because Nagash promised to restore Isabella to life as well.[3]
