Vardek Crom was the herald of the Lord of the End Times, Archaon. He was once king of a mighty Kul tribe who ruled an enormous empire in the north. One day Crom was told of a group of Chaos Knights riding across his plains uninvited, he set off immediately and encountered the Knights, who in truth were the Swords of Chaos, the bodyguard of Archaon and there leader, the aforementioned Archaon. Crom challenged Archaon to a duel, who refused three times and instead sent forth members of the Swords, all who were killed by Crom. Archaon eventually dimounted and fought using his shield, when he eventually drew his sword, Crom was struck with awe, Crom stopped struggling against him and joined his warband.

From that day forth Crom united the Kul and sprung a mighty army for Archaon. Crom set off through Steppes and though the Worlds Edge Mountains to the Empire.

Crom is known to have fought and beaten the tribes of the Orc Warboss Grimgor Ironhide.
