Shadowfast
Shadowfast is a Wardancer of Athel Loren.[1]
History
Beastmen were instructed by Juhad to lure Shadowfast to him by capturing and torturing Way Watchers, killing them, the wardancer discovered that Nastor Rakk was awaitng him near the now his now burning family tree. [1a] Shadowfast ran quickly to the sacred mounds of Equos to confront the Champion of Nurgle who had retrieved a staff of power from the buried elvish dead who he could raise and command with it. [1b]
Refusing to fight his dead kinfolk, the wardancer was captured and about to be sacrificed when another sorcerer spoke inside his head and gifted him with the command word to take back conrol over the staff. The ghosts of the dead elves then turned upon and killed Rakk before returning to their rest. Shadowfast placed the staff with them but when he awoke next morning - it had returned to him. [1b]
Seemingly bound to the artefact, Shadowfast began searching for answers - entering The Vaults he came upon elves being attacked by Skaven and came to their assistance, only to discover that they were in fact Dark Elves! [1c]
