77) The noble Tempest Lords are grand strategists, fighting with their minds and voices as much as their hammers and shields. Their inspiring oratory has galvanised battered mortal tribes into acts of furious revenge against Chaos persecutors in a dozen nations. #AoS #Warmongers
75) In the time of the Arcanum Optimar, masterless spells roam the Realms. They accrue names, then dire tales, then bounties, avoided by all except the spell hunters who seek to dispel them as a profession. Many such folk are transmuted into odd monuments to their own greed. #AoS
71) Most Aqshians live short, hot, fierce lives; better to burn brightly than slowly gutter out. Aqshy’s realmstone, called aqthracite or everburning coal, inflames emotions as well as giving out heat and light. Harsh tempers and crimes of passion abound in its presence #AoS
69) The spiderfang grots believe the Bad Moon is a giant god-spider’s egg, and that one day it will hatch, raining trillions of arachnids of various sizes all across the realms. When asked by other grots why that would be a good thing they have but one reply. ‘...Spiders!’ #AoS
65) The Beastgrave, in Ghur, is a sentient, hungry mountain. It lures in its victims with dreams of easy treasure as an angler fish lures prey, then crushes and digests them. Lately it has contracted the revenant curse of Shadespire, so its prey just won’t lie down and die #AoS
62) the undead Stalliarch Lords of ancient Equuis make their war steeds from bone freshly harvested, the better to harness the fading vitality left in the newly dead. As a result they charge, reform, wheel and charge again at speed - and tend to ooze blood all over the place #AoS
61) Slaanesh, the Dark Prince, aka the Chained God, was bound in paradoxical fetters of light and shadow by Teclis, Malerion and co. He languishes there, having the aelven souls he gorged on gradually extracted. It’s agonising but as a god of excess he’s kind of ok with that #AoS
56) The aelven Idoneth Deepkin fled to the dark, featureless depths of the oceans because it was as close to a sensory deprivation tank as they could get, and therefore would be the last place their nemesis Slaanesh, god of excess, would find them. It’s worked, thus far. #AoS
54) back with some more #AoS facts. The ingenious Katophranes of Shadespire made many magic mirrors to cheat death, some of which were prisons for wicked individuals rather than shadeglass refuges for the souls of the dead - and not all of these relics are still in Shadespire...
51) It is said by some that wherever you are in the cities of the Mortal Realms, you are only a spear’s throw away from a Skaven... yet others claim they are nothing but an evil myth. #AoS #AgeOfSigmar
