{{cite}}[[ImageFile:Badass Settra.gifpng|rightthumbnail]]'''Settra the Imperishable''' was the great [[Tomb King]] of [[Khemri]] and ruler of all [[Nehekhara]].
===The End Times===Before Settra could begin his expansion, he discovered that Nagash had once again returned. The forces he was going to use to spread his rule were instead mobilized to defend Nehekhara. He commissioned all the best troops from various cities to defend Khemri, knowing Nagash would seek his Black Pyramid, and ordered Nehekhara's best architect, Rahmotep, to build mighty walls around the city. The forces of Nagash did indeed invade Nehekhara with Khemri and his pryamid as his final goal, though there was no sign of the Great Necromancer himself. During the final battle for Khemri, Khatep broke his exile to tell Settra about the Destroyer of Eternities, a weapon that may be able to permanently stop Nagash. Settra listened then executed him for breaking his exile. He didn't find the blade in its place, as unknown to him Apophas stole it (at the behest of a Skaven assassin) to kill Nagash and claim his soul for Usirian, god of the underworld. He later fought Arkhan in 1-1 combat and bisected him. The halves were taken to the priests who could stop Arkhan from being reanimated, but one of them was a traitor who stopped the others, and Arkhan's capture was revealed to be a plan to smuggle Nagash into Khemri without having confront the army at the gates. From inside the city Nagash was able to enter the Nehekharan underworld where he battled and consumed Usirian, finally restoring himself to his fullest power. Settra and his forces were on the verge of defeating Nagash's armies when Nagash revealed himself. Nagash, now a true god of death, was far too strong for Settra's armies who were obliterated by his dark magics. Settra alone was left to face the Usurper but without the blessings of Usirian to protect him was swiftly overpowered. Nagash gave honor to Settra and offered him a place as one of his Mortarchs, to which Settra replied;"SETTRA DOES NOT SERVE... SETTRA RULES!" Nagash responded to this arrogance by dismembering Settra before leaving his head half buried in the sand, helpless to do anything but watch as Nagash's forces razed Khemri to the ground. After an unknown amount of time Settra was offered the chance for revenge by the [[Chaos Gods]]. He was restored in exchange for agreeing to slay Nagash in their name. To this end he traveled north and joined the armies of [[Archaon]] at [[Middenheim]]. He earnt his place by defeating [[Kholek Suneater]] in a battle that lasted four days and flattened much of the forest surround Middenheim. When the united forces of the incarnates attacked Middenheim to try to stop Archaon from destroying the world Settra confronted Nagash during the final battle. He pointed his khopesh at Nagash, and called him a usurper before leaping towards him. Infact instead of attacking Nagash Settra beheaded a Chaos daemon that was about to attack Nagash from behind. He explained to Nagash that,"NOBODY COMMANDS SETTRA." He told Nagash he would claim his skull eventually, but only after killing the Chaos Gods for daring to offer him immortality and the chance to conquer all realities in exchange for servitude. He then charged into battle against the Chaos armies by himself. He was last seen battling the endless hordes of Chaos as the world was consumed. ==Gallery==<center><gallery>File:Settra.gif|'''Settra''' on his chariot.{{Fn|2}}File:Untitled11.jpgFile:M1440264 99060207133 ColSettraMain 445x319.jpg|Settra on footFile:Nagash vs Settra.jpg|The humbling of Settra at the gates of KhemriFile:Settra and the Chaos Gods.jpg|Settra restored by the Chaos Gods</gallery></center> == See also ==*[[Kings of Khemri]]*[[Kings of Nehekhara]] ==Sources==*{{Endn|1}}: [[Warhammer Armies: Tomb Kings (6th Edition)]], pg. 4*{{Endn|2}}: [http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=prod1190072a GW Website Settra] [[Category:KhemriTomb Kings characters]][[Category:Special Characterscharacters]] [[de:Settra]][[fr:Settra]]{{Tomb Kings}}
