As long as I've been playing Warhammer, I've been creating backstories for my characters and updating the lore as significant events happen in games I've played or in the evolution of the rules.
It has been eight years since my previous army showcase: A Legacy of Death. During that time, I have added several new units and characters, and the Legion's story has progressed through the Age of Sigmar. Now, we have come full circle back to The Old World. The benefit of Vampire Counts is that the undead characters can essentially live forever, so the necromancer Nieman Kimmel and the von Koss vampires would have been around during the year 2276. In fact, as you will read below, my vampires had their origins during Walach's reign at Blood Keep in 1887!
This post is a collection of all the lore I've presented in the past, with updates to incorporate new units and characters, and carry their narrative beyond the End Times into the Age of Sigmar.
If you've been following my #HobbyStreak on Twitter and Instagram, you'll have seen some of the progress I've been making on my Soulblight Gravelords army led by Olivia. Here's a look at everything I've finished, and a continuation of Olivia's narrative following her resurrection:
The tale of Korak the Grim and his quest to restore his master, the Necromancer Lord Nieman Kimmel, whose soul was lost during the End Times. This post collects all six chapters of the Resurrection narrative, along with the origin lore for the Congregation of the Crimson Shroud, which I have included as a prologue.
A quick post to finish off the pair of Wight Queens:
Wights and Wight Kings have always been among of my favorite unit types in Warhammer. Here's a look at my older Wight Kings, and the new Wight Queens that I'm working on.
My floating vampire queen is finally finished! Here's a look at her and how she came together:
Here's a look at my process for basing flying models.
My vampire queen's assembly is finished, and I made more progress on the Primaris Inceptors:
I've been looking forward to this project for a while– Time to combine these two kits!
