This resulted in a steady increase in Norse raids along the coastlines, growing bolder and more numerous by the day, creating fear and havoc amongst the many towns and fishing villages situated in the coastline of Nordland. It would take several years or even decades, but the Hordes of Chaos will inevitably come back, driven by the expansion of the Chaos Wastes and the call of their dark gods. His advisors have even told him that in the north, the Winds of Magic blows strong once more, and dark omens were abound of a terrible storm that would engulf the world in war. Ever since the Great War Against Chaos in 2031 IC, the number of Beastmen and Chaos cults has steadily increased over the past several decades. The Emperor decided that a show of military force could only strengthen his position as the new Emperor of the Empire.

It was made for Magnus the Pious by the Warrior Mage Fredrik von Tarnus, after the Great War against Chaos.Īfter acquiring the Imperial Throne as the new Emperor, Karl Franz wished to assert his military power over his new kingdom during his reign and show his beloved subjects that he was not a man of decadence, sloth or greed, but a man that would lead his people in their darkest time. This seal wards against the most powerful attacks and blows and even counter magic spells cast against the Emperor. The Emperor, also wears an enchanted gem, the Silver Seal, gifted by the Elves, upon a chain around his neck. This is one of the most potent magic weapons ever crafted by the Dwarfs of Old, in the days when their power was at it’s height. The Emperor is armed with the Hammer of Sigmar, the weapon given to Sigmar by Kurgan Ironbeard, the Dwarf King. It is made of black Gromril and is richly gilded and adorned with runes and symbols of power. The Emperor’s personal armour was made for him by Dwarf Smiths and incorporates some of the actual armour worn by Magnus the Pious at the Battle of Kislev. The Emperor frequently takes personal command of his troops, wielding Ghal Maraz, the fabled magical warhammer given to Sigmar himself by the Dwarf king Kurgan Ironbeard over two thousand years ago, or his Runefang sword, and riding atop Deathclaw, his Griffon mount of many years, alongside his second-in-command and personal friend Riekmarshal Kurt Helborg. Thanks to his tireless efforts on the behalf of its people, the Empire has flourished during his reign as never before: the Imperial Engineers School in Altdorf has grown, the Colleges of Magic have thrived and his armies have marched from victory to victory.
