Norsca

N
orsca is inhabited by a race of savage and ferocious humans known as the Norscans; fur-clad warriors and
berserkers of hairy brawn who sail the seas in fearsome longships in order to unleash their devastating fury
upon the south. Warlike and cruel, the Norse are the very epitome of the Warriors of Chaos; fanatically
devoted champions of the Dark Gods and the baneful scourge of their foes. The brutality of their raids have
been felt as far abroad as the Witch King's baleful domain of Naggaroth and the mysterious realm of Cathay,
for the men of Norsca are reckoned to be perhaps the most adept sailors and navigators in all the world;
unequaled by any in their courage and reckless thirst for conquest. The Norsemen are, without exception,
great warriors, blessed with incredible strength at arms and fearsome demeanors. It is the dream of nearly every member of
this fierce people to ascend to the ranks of the greatest warriors; to become mighty Champions of Chaos and bear the dread
marks of their gods' ruinous favor.
Landscape. Norsca is a savage and brutal land, plagued by lethal winters for more than half the year, and worse, lashed
perpetually by raging gales of Chaos energies howling down from the ancient ruins of the fallen Warp Gate resting at the very
heart of the northern Chaos Wastes. As such, no sane Human being would be able to survive in this harsh wasteland with
their sanity intact. It is for this reason that most, if not all the tribes of the Norsca, are affected to some extent by the power of
Chaos, causing their flesh to warp and mutate through the influences of their Gods, and their minds to be plunged into the
darkest depths of the most violent insanity. The Norscans see these alterations as the "blessings" of their dreadful deities,
which empower them to strive above and conquer all who oppose them. Hard bitten and war like, the men of Norsca are the
greatest of all the warriors of the Dark Gods.
Tribes. The Norscans as a single, cohesive people do not exist. Indeed, the very term 'Norscan' is an Imperial labeling. They
are instead divided into various, numerous tribal confederations that are as much at war with each other as they are with the
Kurgan and Hung tribes to the East or the Empire to the South. These various Norse tribes are often nations unto themselves:
possessing varying pantheons of gods, traditions, heroes and tribal dialects. Those tribes living within the northern reaches of
Norsca are often fierce worshipers of Chaos, and are the most common to take part in the Chaos Gods' wars upon the
civilised world. The southern tribes are somewhat milder than their northern counterparts. While they raid and plunder just as
much as the rest of their kin, it is from these tribes that the ideals of trade and cooperation have begun to take root, albeit
shakily. When not waging war against the southern realms, these tribes often trade exotic furs, metals, and their service as
mercenaries to employers in cities such as Marienburg. However, all Norse are united by a shared ancestry and a mutual
veneration of the Four Dark Lords of Chaos, and as such, when the Gods speak and command war to be made against the
Empire, the southern tribes take up the call as readily as their more northerly kinsmen. To refuse the call of the gods is the
greatest dishonor a tribe can bring unto itself, and is often seen by other Norscans as grounds for annihilation

Heretic Religion
Norscan religion is based primarily around the worship
of the Chaos Gods, which are venerated by various local
aspects and names both similar to and distinct to those
they are known by to the scholars and priests of the
Empire. Commonly, the Norscans, like the other human
races who dwell around the Chaos Wastes, venerate all
the Chaos Gods in a single pantheon, as a purely
practical consideration in order to draw upon all of the
gifts and powers of the Four Gods in order to better
survive in the harsh north. In spite of this, there are
many tribes that do in fact take a single Chaos God to be
their patron, who is then seen as both the father and
protector of that tribe. Commonly, that god is also the
Patron of the chieftain. In the vast majority of Norse
tribes, Khorne takes up this position, as he is by far the
most popular choice of patron deity in the battle torn
North.
In addition to the Chaos Gods themselves, the
Northmen religion also incorporates various Daemon
Princes, fallen Chaos Champions, revered ancestors and
various other lesser spirits into its traditions. Despite the The Ruinous Powers:

Slaanesh, the Great Serpent, is prayed to in the aftermath
of battle for fulsome feasting and celebration. He is also
prayed to for fertility and virility and is invoked in some
tribes' marriage ceremonies.
There is also a very strong element of ancestral worship
to the Norse religion that cannot be overlooked. Indeed, the
veneration of the ancestors is a tradition as old as the
worship of the Chaos Gods themselves to the Norsemen,
and one from which they too derive their strength and
fierce codes of honor.
Marauders
Chaos Marauders are the most numerous tribal warriors
dedicated to the worship of Chaos, and whose profession
for violence and savagery have since earned them the well
known title of Marauders by the inhabitants of the Old
World, though amongst their own people, they are simply
known as warriors, and in times of peace, they often serve
the clans as guardians and hunters. As befit their barbaric
reputation, these axe wielding barbarians often charge into
the fray within great howling mobs without care for armor
or tactics. They have little fear of dying in combat, for to
fight and die under the gaze of their gods is considered the
greatest death one can achieve in their lifetime.

Berserkers
Marauder Berserkers are a brutal sect of Northmen
warriors. They are known chiefly for being subject to
terrifying battle frenzies that render them immune to pain
and which transform them into unstoppable juggernauts on
the field of battle. Their feats fill the songs of the Skalds
and loom large in the sagas of the North and the
nightmares of Imperial soldiers who have faced them on
the battlefield. Bred from the hardiest stock of the already
hardy folk of the grim northlands, the berserkers of Norsca
are a rightly feared warrior cult. Though many berserkers
wear armor, others purposely go into battle without
protection in order to display the bravery to their foe, to
their kinsmen, and to their Dark Gods. They are possessed
of a dark, brutal madness which compels them to fight on
until they have slaughtered all about them, or are
themselves slain.

Reavers
Norscan Reavers are warriors amongst the Norscans
whom have taken to piracy and raiding as a means of living.
The seas of the Old World are full of terrors, some Human,
others subhuman. Among the most feared mariners are the
Norse Reavers, brutal warriors who plunder the coastlines
in search of foodstuffs, gold, and slaves. They are a
merciless lot, hardened from their frequent battles with
Imperial sailors and the feeble militias that stand against
them. Reavers sail the seas to bring booty back to their
settlements in their frozen lands. Others sell their souls to
the Ruinous Powers, hoping to attract the attention of their
uncaring Gods, and gain the power they so crave.
Reaver (Marauder variant).
A Reaver is a CR 1/2 (100 XP) warrior with the
stats of a marauder but with the following
changes:

breath underwater for twice as long and has
proficiency with navigator's tools.

Kings
The most powerful and fearsome of Norsemen are the dark
Kings of this wild land. There is a divide in the methods of
royal succession between the northern and southern parts
of Norsca. In the North, Kings are invariably victors of
blood drenched trials by combat where all claimants battle
each other in order to determine who among them is the
greatest warrior and most favored by the Dark gods. In the
South, however, the transition of power is generally
somewhat smoother, but still fraught with violence as the
new King must still slay his rivals in combat to ensure his
power and prove his worthiness before both the gods and
his kinsmen. All Kings of Norsca bear upon them Marks of
the Dark Gods, indicating outwardly that they have been
blessed by their patron deities with incredible power and
might. These Marks are also an indication of the King’s
right to rule, for he must have already proven himself as a
mighty warlord in order to attract the Eyes of the gods in
such a profound way. Celebrated Chaos Champions, the
Kings of Norsca are amongst the most deadly warriors in
the entire world, and prove the legends of their dark might
in war time and time again. At times, certain exceptionally
powerful Kings can rise to unite multiple tribes or even all
of Norsca under their banners. This individual is known as
the High King. To date, there have only been a small
number of individuals with the sheer strength and will
required to become High Kings, such as High King
Ormgaard, High King Valmir Aesling, and High King Erik
Redaxe.

King Fury of Chaos. Once per turn, the King can deal an

King can then make one attack as a bonus action.

Skin Wolves
Skin Wolves are Werecreatures of Chaos that turn into
lycanthropes. Many are the foul Chaos cults and many are
the dark horrors of twisted flesh and nightmares made real
that the Ruinous Powers have visited upon the world. Few,
though, are as strange as the skin wolves of legend. In the
far north, among those who dwell in the shadow of Chaos,
be they Norscan, Kurgan or Hung, as well as the shunned
corners of the world where degenerates root and fester
such as the Bone Hills of Estalia or the dire fens south of
the Badlands, myths and bloody tales speak of the skin
wolves. Witch cursed or Chaos tainted, these men and
women, half feral and subject to savage appetites, carry
within them a taint in the blood, a mutation that shows not
readily as stigmata on their flesh, but slumbers within, a
beast waiting to be unleashed by blood and unspeakable
ritual.
When this horror is released, no mere transformation of
man into beast is effected. Instead the humanoid wolf thing,
lean and half insane with insatiable hunger, rips its way
fully formed from the body of the man, which is left little
more than shredded flaps of skin and chunks of bloody
gristle by the freeing monster. It is the clinging shrouds of
skin that give the beasts their common name. The frenzied
creatures, whose packs are formed by kinship ties of blood
and slaughter, care not what they kill in their bloodlust and
bear no loyalty to any master, save the Dark Gods
themselves. As such, only the most unscrupulous wizard
would seek to bind them to their will by Kadon's magic, and
some that have done so have had cause to lament their
choice of ally. Only once battle is spent and a skin wolf has
glutted itself on the raw and dripping gore of its enemies
will the terrible transformation be reversed and the
bubbling and overworked flesh of the skin wolf collapse,
then like a newborn the human must tear its way out of the
monster it once was. All skin wolves have the ability to
regenerate their horrid forms and they may carry the favor
of one of the Chaos Gods.

Ernst Wolfenburg, Mercenary:

“I’d heard tales of the Norse Berserkers and their
ways, but not one story prepared me for facing
them on the field of battle. The Kislevites I’d
taken up with were some of the strongest and
most taciturn warriors I’ve ever had the honor of
serving alongside, so I was somewhat surprised
when I found out that they were quietly nervous
about the morrow’s engagement. We were all set
to fight a raiding band from a tribe called the
Baersonlings. I didn’t really believe even half of
what the Kislevites told me. But the following
morning, I stood on the edges of the northern
pack ice and watched the fur clad barbarians
chew on their shields, some of them while
foaming at the mouth. That was endurable, I’d
seen stranger in my travels. But as the battle
began, as their features melted and twisted, the
muzzles of wolves emerging from beneath their
helms, claws unsheathing from their flesh, I knew
why the Kislevites feared the Norsemen. It was a
long struggle and I’ll not pretend it was an easy
victory, but as fierce as they were, the Chaos
touched bastards fell in the end as any other
men.”

Fimir
The Fimir are amphibious humanoid monsters that haunt
bogs, fens and desolate moorlands throughout the northern
and western Old World. Their strongholds take the form of
forbidding, craggy piles of rock, crudely built in the
semblance of the castles of more civilised races. Such
dwellings are seldom seen by outsiders, for they are
wreathed in thick mist, a miasma which is magically
generated by the Fimir to shield their fortresses from
prying eyes, and themselves from the harsh glare of the
sun.
Long before the rise of Man, the Fimir worshiped the
Chaos Gods, and for a time enjoyed their favor. Alas, the
Eye of the Gods was swiftly drawn to the more vibrant and
amusing race of Man, and the Fimir were abandoned,
reduced to seeking boons from bound Daemons where
once they had enjoyed the blessings of gods. Nowadays, the
Fimir are a dwindling and reclusive race, little given to
leaving their swampy fastnesses, save for the occasional
raid for food and slaves. Only the Fimir sorcerers, known
as Dirach or sometimes as Balefiends, spend prolonged
periods in the lands beyond the mists. Such creatures have
but one goal, to destabilize the barrier between the mortal
world and the Realm of Chaos, thus aiding the Chaos Gods
to their ultimate victory, and so regaining their favor.
Sorcerers. A Balefiend's sorceries seem crude and
ritualistic compared to the magic of Elves or even Men, but
they are no less potent, for they are woven with power
stolen from Daemons. A Balefiend's cyclopean eye can see
the ebb and flow of the Winds of Magic in the same way a
Man's perceives light and shade, which allows them to
make the best use of whatever magical power is available.
Warriors. Fimir Warriors are the footsoldiers of their
race, bedecked in large, powerful plate armor and wielding
clumsy maces into battle. To isolated and lonely
settlements on fog shrouded fen and swamp, from the
hinterlands of the Empire to the edges of far Cathay, the
Fimir are a creature of horrific legend made manifest. Cold
and cruel and mightier than any man, with a single baleful
eye atop a pointed snout bristling with jagged fangs, to
some these scaled nightmares are daemons incarnate, but
the truth is much stranger and darker.
Once when all the world was fog shrouded and dark,
legend has it that these cyclopean fiends ravaged the Old
World in mighty warbands, tearing down the cities of the
High Elves and struggling in blood conflict with the wild
men who dwelt in the lands that would millennia later
become the Empire long before Sigmar arose there.
Now the dwindling Fimir, degenerate and malign, are
reduced to plotting petty raids within their forlorn
strongholds and nursing bitter hatred for those that now
rule where once they were masters. Larger and more
ferocious than their sorcerous Dirach brethren, with tails
tipped with huge bony clubs, the Fimir are mighty warriors,
their deathly yellow-grey flesh all but immune to pain so
that each can shrug off bows that would kill a man outright.
They now march forth from the few remaining hidden
Fimir holds under dense blankets of fog; summoned and
controlled by primitive talismans forged in blood and
bronze by the Dirach and their foul matriarchs, their goal
to tear the warm blooded screaming from their shattered
homes and holdfasts.

Lore of Spirits
The Lore of Spirits is the magic of shamanism.
Practitioners are skilled at both defeating malevolent
spirits like the Ethereal Undead and invoking the aid of
their tribes’ tutelary spirits through the following spells:
Spirit Staff, Fire of Vengeance, Spirit's Voice, Defeat
Disease Spirit, Message of Doom, Spirit Shield.
Spellcasting
Every time that you cast a spell from the Lore of Spirits you
have to roll a d20 and gain half that much Spirit Points.
Results of 18, 19 or 20 represent respectively a minor,
major or catastrophic miscast. This means that the spell
fails in the way explained in its description and the DM has
to roll on the appropriate Chaos Manifestation Table for
ulterior effects.
You have a pool of maximum 50 Spirit Points, when you
gain more than this amount you become unstable and you
might loose control over the spirit world. Every round of
combat that you end with more than 50 Spirit Points you
have to succeed on a Charisma saving throw (DC =
currents Spirit Points-50) or suffer 8d10 psychic damage
as 1d6 angry ghosts rips through your mind and
materialise around you attacking everyone nearby.
Spirits Quietening: As an action you can concentrate on
calming down the spirit world, loosing 1d12 + Cha modifier
Spirit Points. Otherwise you automatically calm it down
when not casting any Lore of Spirits spell at a rate of 1
Spirit Point lost every round.

Trolls
Trolls are large humanoid monsters, as witlessly stupid as
they are bone-crushingly powerful. They commonly join
rampaging armies for the promise of food. Trolls are
voracious creatures, mostly motivated by food and eating
more than anything else, and appropriately, their digestive
systems can cope with almost anything, including, as
rumored, rock and metal. Trolls are infamous for several
abilities. Their digestive juices are among the most
corrosive acids known in the Old World, and
disembowelling a Troll can often result in the death of the
attacker himself as the acid sprays out. Secondly, Trolls
possess an uncanny ability of quickly regenerating even the
most grievous wounds. In due time almost all wounds will
be healed, except if damaged with their only known
weakness, fire.
Habitat. Trolls are found in their greatest numbers in the
lands of Troll Country, which borders the lands of Norsca
to the north and other Chaos tainted regions in close
proximity to the Chaos Wastes. Trolls are by nature
creatures of Chaos, the corrupting taint of Chaos playing a
primary role in their origins and continued existence.
The Troll Country consists of steppe slowly turning into
tundra as one travels north before meeting the great
mountains and the edge of the Chaos Wastes. It is some of
the least forgiving land in the Old World, and no farming is
possible. There are some forests and two main ranges of
hills, but for the most part, it is largely flat. It is easy to
travel for days without seeing any settlements here. The
weather is harsher than in most parts of Kislev, always
frigid even extending through spring and autumn. Winter
can blanket several feet of snow fall over most of the area,
making movement impossible. Most of the creatures who
live here spend the winter in one place, preparing for the
troubles that come with the thaw.
Weaponry. Trolls sometimes make use of weapons, such
as primitive stone clubs and bones, although they are more
than capable of ripping someone apart with their bare
hands and claws.
Variants. All Trolls have been affected by Chaos to some
extent, as their species is the result of thousands of years of
warping influence from the corrupting power of the north.
However Chaos trolls have been particularly corrupted as
they sport all manner of mutations, making them even
more hideous than their common cousins, and the power
of the Winds of Magic stokes their natural aggression and
strength, turning them from mere monsters into some of
the most terrible beasts in the armies of Chaos. The Troll's
ability to shrug off wounds, along with its prodigious
physical strength and its corrosive vomit, are all enhanced
by its exposure to Chaos. Stone Trolls are a distinct breed
of Troll which live exclusively in caves and mountainous
regions of the world, hence their name. Since they live on
rocky mountains, they tend to consume large quantities of
stone and rock, the natural magical inertia of the stone
imbues them with a certain degree of magical resistance.
A River Troll lives within dirty rivers, marshes and other
foul waters, somewhat resembling the bottom of the river, if
that riverbed is particularly coated in sediment, slime,
rotting vegetation, fish carcasses, and various other smelly
detritus whose precise nature and origin are too horrible to
contemplate. In all probability the River Troll’s stink is even
worse than that of the riverbed, since one can add the
Troll’s personal miasma to the ill omened mélange of odors
emitted from the mucky smears on its skin.
 NORSCA
13
Ice Trolls are the breed that inhabits the frozen norscan
mountains, living off mostly on ice and snow since their
lands are barren and preys are scarce. They occasionally
accompany the norsemen in their raids or group up into
troll's warbands to plunder more fertile regions and fill up
their bellies. They are particularly resistants to cold
climates and their physical appearance resembles that of
their common cousins if they were left for decades freezing
in the chillest temperatures.

"Them River Trolls is the worst. If they ever move
into a lake or river you’re fishing, there’s no
getting them out again, leastways not without my

to their dooms. Worse than that, they eat all the
fish. One of them comes to my lake, but I fixed

After a few weeks of that he moved downriver to

him. Everyone’s scared of my knife, even Trolls."

Throgg, King of the Trolls
Throgg is among the most unnaturally intelligent of his vile
kind, intent on bringing the world under the rule of a new
ice age with himself at its head. Even the most lackwit child
knows that Trolls are grossly stupid beasts. Nonetheless,
around the campfires of the north, there persist rumors
that in the depths of Troll Country there is an elder beast
whose mutations were not just of the body but also the
mind, a Troll King possessed of a grim and malevolent
cunning who seeks to grind the realms of Man under his
monstrous rule.
At the heart of an icy labyrinth strewn with the gnawed
corpses of once mighty heroes, the Troll King, Throgg, sits
brooding upon his rocky throne. No fanfare announces his
arrival, no vassals pay him tithe, and no courtiers vie for his
favor. His subjects are drooling, stinking monsters and his
domain is a desolate and wind whipped wasteland. A filth
encrusted crown rings one of the Troll King’s tusks, a once
priceless heirloom taken from a great warrior whose quest
led him only into Throgg’s gullet
There was a time when Throgg was content purely with
a life of hunting, raiding and killing. He led his monstrous
kin in ambushes and midnight attacks, each more
successful than the last. Throgg had a knack of using the
harsh climate of the north as his ally, for Trolls are quite at
home in the numbing cold; to them a fierce ice shard
blizzard is no more troubling than a light summer rain.
Before long, the Troll King became infamous, known
amongst the warriors of the Old World as Wintertooth.
Every season, great and lauded heroes would ride
northwards, brave knights and adventurers, all seeking out
Throgg’s lair to slay him. Every season, the Troll King dined
upon noble flesh.
 NORSCA

One moonless night, as Throgg was picking his yellowed
tusks clean with a gem encrusted blade, he beheld the
broken bodies of his prey and began to think. Throgg
muttered to himself, his eyes burning with cold fire for
several long days. If the race of Man was so keen to fight
him and his bestial subjects, then fight he would, with all
the monsters of Troll Country at his side. That night,
Throgg vowed that he would see the lands of Men
despoiled in the name of the Dark Gods. He would gather
every monster, mutant and madman under his rule and
march at the head of a nightmarish horde deep into the so
called civilised lands of the south. On his heels would come
the bitter cold of winter, for where the creatures of Chaos
tread, the land itself warps and changes. Throgg would
bring about an age of ice and darkness and make all of the
races of the Old World his slaves. As the Troll King
marches determinedly south, his monstrous entourage
grows with every passing day. Under Throgg’s dominion,
the creatures of the hinterlands have united into a vast
army, and soon the race of Man shall feel the Troll King’s
wrath.

Chaos War Mammoths
Chaos War Mammoths are a tainted and savage race of
Mammoths that have been transformed by the raw and
mutating powers of Chaos into beasts of destruction. These
massive creatures, whose footfalls shake the earth like
thunder, are capable through sheer bulk and roused fury of
demolishing buildings, trampling forests flat and crushing
anything smaller than themselves into an unrecognisable,
bloody smear. Although not actually evil as such, they are
entirely belligerent and uncaring beasts that cut a swathe
of destruction wherever they go, a factor magnified a
thousand-fold by the fact that when they have young they
travel in communal family herds, are fiercely territorial and
respond to any other creature that manages to gather their
notice by smashing it into the ground, or if it is a large
enough monster in its own right, impaling it with huge
tusks the size of mighty tree trunks
To the Chaos touched tribes of the Northern Wastes, the
Mammoths are living totems of might and power, beasts
who go where they will and destroy what they will, and are
so considered sacred creatures in their own right, that to
tribes which through fortune, sorcery, or the favor of the
gods come to bring one of these creatures into the fold (for
none can ever be truly tamed), great honor and fear is
attached. The Mammoths roam all across the north,
feeding off blasted scrubland and thorny barrens and, from
the shores of the Sea of Claws to the cold wastes of K'dathi
they are venerated by Norscans and Hung alike; but it is the
Dolgan tribes that have historically had the most success
adding the prodigious strength of the Chaos Mammoths to
that of their tribes through the jealously guarded secrets of
their shaman. These Chaos War Mammoths, or vraszas is
the name given to them by the Dolgan, make fearsome foes
in battle against which few mortals have a hope of standing
firm against. The greatest warriors of the tribe ride into
battle on their backs, fighting from fortified wooden
platforms while others, given over to the tribe's shaman
sorcerers, carry the mighty war altars of the Chaos Gods,
held aloft and inviolable for all below to see.

Frost Wyrms
Frost Dragons are creatures of frost and ice, the chill of
midwinter given vengeful and scaly form. They are slow to
anger, presumably a result of their own chill nature being
combined with cold blooded physiology. Dragons seem to
be a highly malleable race, adapting to their surroundings
with time. The Dragons of the northern regions have
changed so far from their origins that their breath has lost
its fire, instead becoming a cold mass of icy vapor that can
freeze their foes in instants. Those that have changed the
most are, of course, those that have fallen to Chaos. The
mutating power of Chaos has touched more than just trolls
and wolves in the malign wilderness of Troll Country. In its
northern reaches, just below the surface of the frozen
tundra, Frost Wyrms lurk in their underground lairs. With
the appearance of giant, winged monsters, nobody is
entirely sure of their true nature or origins, but they are
certainly abominable creatures tainted by Chaos. Some say
that before the species mutated, they may have been Ice
Dragons, a creature with a similarly dangerous killing
ability in its icy, freezing breath, and a gargantuan size
proportional to its age. Lying motionless beneath the frozen
tundra, the cold-blooded Frost Wyrm waits for the footfalls
of trespassers before emerging to freeze them to death in
their tracks.

Wulfrik the Wanderer
Wulfrik the Wanderer, known also as the Eternal
Challenger, the Inescapable One and the World Walker, is
the ultimate seafaring warrior. A mighty giant of a man,
clad in hulking plate and bedecked in the trophies of his
many kills, Wulfrik travels the four corners of the world,
seeking the greatest and most deadly warriors and beasts
to bring them to battle and slaughter them as demanded by
the Gods.
One of the most devoted followers of Chaos to walk the
earth, Wulfrik has made offerings of lords, kings, sea
serpents and dragons to his masters. To Khorne he offers
up their skulls, to Nurgle the contents of their slit bellies, to
Slaanesh their still beating hearts, and to Tzeentch their
dying breath.
History. In his former life, Wulfrik was a Chaos
Champion of the Sarl tribe of southern Norsca. A natural
born killer who bore the Mark of the Dark Gods upon his
flesh; he was ever renowned throughout the holdings of his
tribe and beyond as a superlative warrior, feared for his
prodigious strength and unmatched skill at arms. Wulfrik
forged his infamy by taking the heads of every rival Chaos
Champion who crossed his path, proudly displaying them
for all to see as a declaration of his power and the folly of
challenging him. In the violent societies of Norsca, Wulfrik
was famed, and many sagas were sung to his glory by the
skald chanters of the Sarls. Pride proved the Chosen's
downfall, however.
It was 2519 IC that a massive bout of tribal conflict had
erupted between the Sarls and their traditional rivals, the
Aeslings of the north. The Aeslings were led by their king, a
terrible Chaos Lord known as Torgald. Outnumbered and
outmatched, it seemed doom had come for the men of the
Sarls, with only bloody death awaiting them at the hands of
their merciless cousins.
However, the Sarls themselves were not entirely without
means. Their king, a Chosen of Tzeentch known as
Viglundr was a cunning warlord, who possessed great
wealth as a result of many profitable raids, and thus was
able to procure the services of legions of mercenaries from
across the length and breadth of the Norscan realms and
even as far abroad as the Kurgan tribes.
Recognizing Wulfrik's skill at arms, Viglundr also offered
the champion untold wealth and the hand of his daughter,
and thus, the status of king by inheritance if he would gain
victory for the tribe. Wulfrik, though looking down upon
Viglundr as a pathetic shadow of his predecessors,
nonetheless grasped at the chance for power and led the
hosts of the Sarls to war. Unbeknownst to Wulfrik, Sarl, or
Aesling at the time, the entire war was nothing more than a
highly complex, Machiavellian scheme enacted by Viglundr
to eliminate Torgald, thus allowing his more pliable son,
Sveinbjorn, to take the throne of the Aeslings. This would
have then engendered an alliance with the northern tribe
that would see Viglundr's power, and that of the Sarls,
increased by the aid of the bloodthirsty Khornate Aeslings.
Indeed, the Raven God had marked the Sarl King well.
At the now legendary Battle of Thousand Skulls, the
Sarls and Aeslings clashed. Amidst the carnage, Wulfrik
fought the mighty Aesling King. Wulfrik slew the Chaos
Lord, decapitating him and holding his head high for his
tribesmen to see. With the death of their king, the Aeslings
quit the field and victory was in the hands of the Sarls.
That night, as was the custom of the Northern tribes, a
great feast was held in Wulfrik's honor. No man or beast,
Wulfrik proclaimed, had fought more fiercely in battle than
he, and none, he swore, would outdrink him in victory.
Using the skull of King Torgald as his drinking vessel,
Wulfrik had matched words with deeds. It had taken 8
entire barrels of mead to put him under the table, a feat
that had impressed even the Ogres who fought alongside
him. Before the mead completely overwhelmed him
however, the drunken Wulfrik began to boast of his
exploits. Before he was done, he had slain every beast of
the Chaos Wastes twice and personally boxed the ears of
the Emperors of the Empire, Nippon and Cathay. However,
it was the champion's final boast that brought the doom
upon his head. He claimed he was the equal of any warrior
of the realms of the mortal world or in the realms beyond
flesh.
The Curse. That night, Wulfrik was visited by an
emissary of the Dark Gods. In his dreams, the daemon led
him to paradises, necropolises and fantastic netherworlds.
He saw the gleaming towers of the Elf folk, the gilded halls
of Dwarf Lords and the ramshackle fortresses of Orcish
kings. And everywhere he passed was drowned in great
tides of blood. The emissary spoke of how Wulfrik's brazen
words had offended his gods, but had also intrigued them
enough to challenge their champion to prove his proud
words. He was now charged to travel the four corners of
the worlds, and to seek out the fiercest warriors, the most
monstrous creatures, and most ferocious adversaries and
slay them in single combat to prove his might.
If he failed, the emissary explained, then his soul would
be forever cursed by the gods, and deemed unworthy to join
them in their halls. He then spoke with relish of how
daemons would take great pleasure in torturing his soul for
all eternity should that come to pass. When Wulfrik awoke,
he found himself speaking in a thousand languages and his
tongue had been twisted in a sharp, fluted shape like that of
a bird's. A shaman of the Kurgan tribes recognized this as
the Gift of Tongues and enthusiastically pronounced
Wulfrik as blessed. Wulfrik, a short tempered man by any
standard, with little patience for others, made certain the
Kurgan died slowly. Even as he began burning the Kurgan's
toes from his feet, the Shaman was incapable of telling the
Champion where the thoughts were coming from, nor how
to make them stop.
Gift of Tongues:
"Face me if you dare, stunted whelp, or do you
lack even an Elven maid's courage? I thought the
Sons of Grungni were great warriors, but perhaps
you are no true Dwarf. Indeed, maybe you are
instead some breed of bearded goblin, though in
truth, I have seen a finer beard on a Troll's back
side." -Wulfrik the Wanderer to Dwarf King Thurbad
Stonebeard, in perfect Khazalid.
The Gift allows him to issue an irrefutable
challenge to any creature in their own language.
The gift does not merely allow Wulfrik to speak
any language, but allows his words to strike into
a creature's very being and compel them to fight
him. Combined with the well known Norscan
aptitude for biting, albeit unsubtle, insults,
Wulfrik is able to goad his enemies into a
reckless fury where they are more likely to make
fatal mistakes for him exploit.
 NORSCA

 Seafang. The first test was to hunt down the Tomb Lord
Khareops and offer up its shriveled entrails to Nurgle, the
God of Decay. Thus, Wulfrik was charged to travel to the
baking deserts of Khemri, a voyage undertaken by only the
boldest of Northmen, for the desert lay many leagues south
of the far north where the Norsemen made their home. In
order to accomplish his new found duty, Wulfrik required
transport beyond the abilities of a mere longship. In the
end, it was Sigvatr, a grizzled Marauder and long time
comrade, who solved the conundrum. For he had heard
tales of a ship blessed by the Dark Gods with the power to
circumvent the greatest distances in the blink of an eye,
which was in the keeping of a Chaos Sorceress: the
Skaeling witch Baga Yar, who dwelt in a vast fortress
garrisoned by hordes of daemons.
It had taken all the treasure he had seized from King
Torgald, as well as all the silver Viglundr had paid him in
order to assemble an army large and fierce enough to
overcome the unholy defenses of the Sorceress. In a battle
worthy of the sagas, the Norsemen had triumphed over the
daemons; proving their strength to the Dark Gods. In the
end, Wulfrik hunted down the sorceress and hacked off her
limbs before boiling her alive in her own cauldron. Almost
200 men had been slain facing her daemonic army, but
Wulfrik and his warband had triumphed. The treasures and
artefacts aside from the ship he had left to his warriors to
plunder, he had come only for the witch's longship, which
he then named the Seafang.
The Seafang was indeed no ordinary ship. For it was not
mere flight that allowed it its legendary mobility, instead
the longship would fade from the mortal world into the
Realms of the gods, traveling upon the Winds of Chaos
itself, past the hunting grounds of daemons and the
nightmares of men, the ship would sail upon phantom tides
known only to the gods and appear again where Wulfrik
willed. With such power at his command, he was
inescapable. Even the men of Norsca, so used to the
unnatural influence of Chaos, could not help but feel awed
and reverent whenever the power of the Seafang was
worked. Indeed, with every invocation of the ship's magic,
the daemons bound within it demanded an offering of
blood before they would ferry the Norsemen through the
ethereal realm of Chaos. The only offering it had the taste
for was Wulfrik's own blood, perhaps because he had been
the one to slay Baba Yar. Despite this, Wulfrik made certain
that with each new addition to his crew he would feed the
new warrior's blood to the dragon head prow. No ship
could serve two captains, and this was more true of the
Seafang than any other.
The Deeds. With his daemonic prize in tow, Wulfrik
traveled to the land of the Tomb Kings, laying low the
offering demanded of him by the gods and holding the
Tomb Lord's shriveled innards high for the pleasure of
Nurgle. Over time, his legend grew yet more fearsome as
he stalked and slaughtered fell beings in service to the
gods. It was Wulfrik who faced a giant in battle, slew it and
then scalped its hairy head for a cloak. It was Wulfrik who
traveled deep into the Troll Country and slaughtered the
monsters there like sheep and cattle, and it was Wulfrik
who journeyed to the ancient cairn of Jarl Unfir, who arose
as an armored wight only to have its bony back broken over
the champion's knee.
Men journeyed from all over the North to fight at the side of
one so favored by the Dark Gods, in the hope that they
might catch some of his greatness. Tales of a hulking
champion, clad in black steel and bones wielding a dark
sword had spread so far as to be spoken in awed whispers
by Kurgan nomads, as well as in the bloody halls of
Norscan barbarians. Thus, the fame of Wulfrik grew to
gargantuan proportions, and his name lived well in the
sagas of the North and the nightmares of the South.
The Plan to break the Curse. Wulfrik, cursed to an
eternity of unending battle, hunted down and slew the
offerings demanded of him by the Gods. He journeyed to
the holds of the Dwarfen Lords and took from them both
glory and gold, killed mighty dragons and even slew the
unworthy champions of the gods from amongst the tribes
of Kurgan and Hung. All men of the northlands honored his
name and envied the favor the gods had shown him, but
deep within his cold heart Wulfrik despised his curse, and
despised even more those who thought it a blessing. His
wish, for a time at least, was to break it and return to his
own quest for power and glory.
Upon returning from one of his hunts to the Sarl city of
Ormskaro, Wulfrik was approached by yet another Kurgan
shaman: Zarnath of the Tokmars. The sorcerer told
Wulfrik of how he could lift the Curse of the gods from him,
given an ancient artefact of Chaos. In return, he asked for
the Seafang. Wulfrik, despite the protests of his comrades
not to trifle with the gods, agreed. For he sought to once
again pursue his ambitions for lordship of the Sarls, a
position he could not claim were he forever shackled to the
hunt. In addition, Wulfrik had long desired to make the
Sarl Princess whose hand he had been promised his
woman, just as Hjordis herself lusted after the mighty
champion in her own right.
Zarnath explained that in order to enact the ritual to free
Wulfrik, he would require an ancient artefact of the Hung
Sorcerer Kings, the Smile of Sardiss. The artefact, he
said lay in one of the enclaves of the Chaos Dwarf of the
Dark Lands, who sometimes had dealings with the
Norsemen. With the Seafang's daemonic transportation,
Wulfrik and his warriors journeyed to the foul lands of the
Fire Dwarfs. There, they set out to the great fortress of
Dronangkul, or 'Fortress of Iron' in the debased Khazalid of
the Chaos Dwarfs, where the Kurgan claimed the Dwarfen
Lord: Khorakk, and the Smile of Sardiss could be found.

Expedition into the Dark Lands. As was their way, the
Norscans slaughtered their way through the defenses of
the Fire Dwarfs; the blessings of Hashut proving no match
for the unending fury of the Dark Gods. By any standards,
the Norsemen had utterly annihilated the Dwarf Hold, an
impressive feat, given their relatively small numbers.
Wulfrik himself had slain a Bull Centaur Lord, as well
Khorakk himself in that raid; overpowering the former in a
contest of strength and burning the latter alive in one of his
own contraptions before claiming the Smile of Sardiss
from him. However, some of the Norscans fell in the battle,
including Wulfrik's old friend Sigvatr. Wulfrik knelt beside
his comrade to hear his final words and afford him the
honor he was due as a great warrior, such was the respect
and camaraderie between the two. However, no man
amongst Wulfrik's band could guess how foul the
circumstances were that led to the great warrior's death,
nor of the fell consequences it would herald.
Return back Home. With that, the Norsemen returned
home to Ormskaro to rest and replenish their ranks. In his
lengthy absence, the Sarls, as well as their king, believed
that the Kurgan had led Wulfrik the Wanderer to his end
and had continued on his plan to forge his new alliance
with the Aeslings. The arrival of Wulfrik, alive after all,
notably put a dent in this plan. For as the slayer of their
king, the Aeslings both despised as well as admired the
Inescapable One. But Sveinbjorn, a mere mortal man,
could not hope to match a warrior blessed with the Mark of
the Norscan gods, and so refrained from challenging
Wulfrik to battle, even with all his Hersirs backing him.
Realizing that he could not overcome Wulfrik in an honest
contest of arms, he instead resolved to find someone else
who could.
The next day, Sveinbjorn challenged Wulfrik to Personal
Combat within the Wolf Forest, a great arena the Sarls had
built in his honor, and where he screened potential recruits
for his warband in lethal combat. However, when Wulfrik
arrived, he found that he was not to do battle with
Sveinbjorn himself, but a fellow champion of Chaos. A
warrior who towered over even Wulfrik, Troll like in No man amongst Sveinbjorn's hersirs troubled Wulfrik

The Trap. When they made landfall on the shores of
Cothique, Wulfrik and his followers happened upon a
group of Elf maidens praying at a monolith. Zarnath
warned the Norsemen that the maids were actually
witches, and were calling upon strange, arcane forces to
smite the invaders and convinced them to kill them. With
the dark abandon of their race, the Norscans fell upon the
defenseless Elves and slaughtered them gleefully. As the
carnage abated, Zarnath mocked the barbarians for their
bloodthirsty ways, revealing that the Elf women were not
mages, but merely wives who had come to pray to Isha for
fertility. He gloated of the horrible vengeance the menfolk
of Ulthuan would visit upon them for this act. Zarnath had
never intended to free Wulfrik of his curse, only to see him
dead in the either the lands of the Chaos Dwarfs, or the
High Elves. The deceitful sorcerer disappeared from the
scene before the Wanderer could make him suffer for his
betrayal, but not before alerting almost every warrior in
Cothique to their presence.
The Norscans were then set upon by the Silver Helms
and Elven bowmen. Outnumbered, they nonetheless stood
their ground and drove the Elves back, denying them
vengeance for a time. The Elves had thought that Wulfrik
and his warriors would be as easily vanquished as the
horde of Erik Redaxe; but the Worldwalker was made of
sterner stuff than the vanquished king. Wulfrik even
defeated one of the great pale Merwyrms of Ulthuan,
bloodying it and causing it retreat back into the deeps.
However, the Seafang was smashed to kindling, but the
true power of the ship was never in its oars or hull, but it in
the figurehead where the daemon magic bound to it was
kept. Using its power Wulfrik and the only survivor of his
band, Broendulf, managed to escape Ulthuan. Whilst
traveling the Border Realm, Broendulf revealed to Wulfrik
the scale of Viglundr's treachery and confessed his part in
his plans. Incensed, the Champion nonetheless offered a
truce with Broendulf until their mutual enemies, Zarnath
chief among them, were slain.
Revenge. When the mists parted, the Northmen found
themselves in the Empire, for here is where Zarnath had
fled to. He was no tribesman of the East, but rather a mage
of one of the Colleges of Magic. With the true nature of his
enemy revealed to him, Wulfrik traveled back to Ormskaro,
to muster such a fleet that would destroy the city Zarnath
had fled to. When he reached the great tower of Ormfell,
Wulfrik cornered Sveinbjorn and brutally beat the Aesling
prince towards an inch of death for his part in the deceit
and trickery that had cost him his warriors, and also for
forcing himself upon the Sarl Princess Hjordis, whom
Wulfrik then repudiated for her weakness in allowing
herself to be forced upon.
As Wulfrik prepared to slit Sveinbjorn's throat, Viglundr
came upon the scene with a retinue of ironclad warriors
and begged Wulfrik to spare Sveinbjorn's life, fearing the
retribution of the Aeslings should one of their chieftains
die. Wulfrik, now having leverage over the the king, told
Viglundr of his plan to plunder far into the Empire, using
the Seafang's power to spirit the Northmen beyond the
defenses of Marienburg and Nordland. Intrigued by the
proposal, Viglundr agreed, though under the agreement
that Wulfrik would abandon all designs on the kingship of
the Sarls.
Wulfrik agreed, swearing on the Axe of Khorne, and the
Norsemen set about rebuilding the Seafang using the wood
of the ancient Trolltree, a horrific remnant of the age from
before Norsca's settling by the Norsii in ancient times. With
the Seafang now rebuilt into perhaps one of the mightiest
vessals of Chaos, Norsemen mustered from every tribe to
join in this great raid.
The Norsemen soon arrived in Reikland, at the city of
Wisborg where Zarnath, known actually as Ludwig
Stossel of the Celestial Order, who foresaw his death at
Wulfrik's hand, had fled to. Ludwig forsaw his own demise
and thus went to great lengths to ensure the death of the
Chaos Champion, yet with ever place he sent him to, the
Champion only returned stronger then ever. Howling the
name of Khorne, the Norscan God of Battles, the Norse
warriors butchered their way through the meager defenses
of the southling city in berserk rage. Wulfrik did battle with
and defeated a powerful Warrior Priest of Sigmar in the
siege, thus proving the supremacy of the dark gods of the
north over the gods of the south. The baron of Wisborg was
also slain, as was his wife, and the entire city was put to the
torch and plundered of riches. Wulfrik cornered Stossel in
his tower, recognizing the azure glow of his eyes, and
fought through all his constructs in order to reach him. The
Norseman then subjected Stossel to the torturous death of
the Blood Raven, in retribution for the scale of his deceit.
His vengeance reaped, Wulfrik still had other debts to pay.
Sveinbjorn's Demise. Wulfrik saw to Prince Sveinbjorn
second. The Aesling had attempted to bribe Wulfrik's men
into betraying him, promising them a portion of the
captured treasure. Wulfrik, having no need for gold,
promised his men everything in the Seafang's hold to help
him in his own deceit. Wulfrik explained to the trembling
prince how he would cut off the chain links connecting
most of the other longships to the Seafang, abandoning
them there while the Seafang took to the Realm of Chaos.
Flying Sveinbjorn's banner on the ship, the tribes would
blame Sveinbjorn, not Wulfrik for the betrayal, thus
damning the prince's name for all eternity. Sveinbjorn
begged Wulfrik to leave him his honor, accepting whatever
tortures Wulfrik sought to inflict on him, but the champion
was not receptive.
To cap off the revenge, Wulfrik utilized another torture to
kill the prince, putting a snake down his throat while he
screamed for mercy. When Wulfrik returned to Ormskaro,
he threw Sveinbjorn's severed head at Viglundr's feet, his
features swollen by the venom of the snake and spoke of
how he had left the warriors in the lands of the Empire.
Viglundr was shocked, the tribes would now surely descend
upon him demanding vengeance for the death and betrayal
of their kinsmen. The king pleaded to Wulfrik to aid him
again, begging forgiveness for trying to cheat him. Wulfrik
laughed at the king's pathetic mewling and strode from the
hall, his imagination swimming with the sight of Ormskaro
burning and Viglundr dying a terrible death at the hands of
the chieftains of the other clans. Viglundr desperately
reminded him of Hjordis, but to no avail. He could not have
fathomed that Wulfrik had already butchered her before
speaking to him.

Ending. Thus did Ormskaro, legendary seat of the Sarl
tribes, fall into ruin and destruction. Ironically by the hand
of the man the Sarls had reckoned as one of their greatest
heroes. This entire adventure had also served to reveal to
Wulfrik the truth of his fate: that his curse was in fact a
blessing. Without the power of the Seafang, he could not
have entrapped schemers such as Viglundr and Sveinbjorn.
Without his fame as the Worldwalker, he could not have
gained the loyalty of men. Without the lies of Zarnath, the
pieces would not have come together. The gods had helped
him exact vengeance, and with his faith restored, he would
serve them for all eternity as their huntsman. There would
be no more attempts to escape his doom as Wulfrik
traveled the world, laying low the offerings demanded of
him by his gods. Now truly he became the Chaos Gods'
most devout servant, and felt their power coursing through
him.
