29: Necromancers | Warhammer Old World Lore

from Laying Down The Lore: Old World · host Laying Down The Lore

INFAMY, INFAMY, they all have it in for me! (No? Please yourselves) In this episode we look at the practitioners of the dark art of Necromancy, the … eh, Necromancers. Who are they? Why do they raise the dead? What is the difference between them and Necrarchs? We look at these and other questions before focusing on two of the most dangerous necromancers in Warhammer Lore. First we tell the tale of the insane “Lichemaster” Heinrich Kemmler who,with the wight lord Krell, are characters almost as old as the Warhammer game itself. We then delve into the history and machinations of possibly the oldest character in Warhammer lore, Constant Drachenfels, a malevolent warlock who predates the arrival of the old ones.⁠⁠Show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠Chat with us on Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chunks of Dhar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster⁠
