Knights of the Fiery Heart
The Knights of the Fiery Heart are a Templar order which forms a fanatical military wing of the Cult of Sigmar.
They serve as the bodyguard and personal army of the Grand Theogonist and all are members of the Cult of Sigmar.[1a] They are often seen in the capital city in full battle armour and spotless white livery but is also always represented in substantial numbers on Imperial campaigns, especially against the Greenskins. [1b]
Also known as the "Hammer of the Goblins", they are dedicated to the destruction of all Goblinoids. In times of war they also fight alongside Imperial armies. The order has a long and glorious history dating from the Age of Three Emperors, when the Cult of Sigmar was outlawed in Talabecland.
