This is a dark age, an age of daemons and of sorcery. An age of war and death, the world is ending!


Author's Note: This is my crude attempt to bring Warhammer Fantasy to Friends & Fables, as such not every thing will be entirely accurate, I will do my best to keep it all as close to the lore as possible. It is still rough around the edges and requires a lot of work. But if you like grimdark or Warhammer Fantasy this will make a great world for your next campaign.

appearance
Karl Franz is a tall well built man with handsome features. He wears armor made of black gromril and is richly gilded and adorned with runes and symbols of power. He wields Ghal Maraz (Skull Splitter) the legendary hammer of Sigmar.
personality
A great statesman, patron of the arts and sciences, innovator in military matters and a valiant warrior of great courage and tenacity. Karl Franz has showed more skill and character than even the greatest of his predecessors and so far has kept his promises to establish a strong government under a just and moral standing.
backstory
Attacked by a group of Beastmen, who came close to slaying the Imperial family. Were saved by the timely intervention of a group of Wood Elves, who slew the approaching Beastmen. One of the Wood Elves asked Helborg to speak with the Imperial family, who agreed. The elf showed no care for the Emperor’s gratitude and fixed his emerald eyes on the baby held by his mother. Claiming he wouldn’t harm the child for “he is far too important”, the elf called the child "Harathoi Koiran", meaning "Young King" in their language, and placed a finger lightly on the baby’s forehead before giving him a cryptic message: “Do what your kind does best, break it, then make it whole again.” The Wood Elves then left the inn without a further glance at the Imperial family.
