Pieter's Sight Seeing (56k unfriendly)

Stumbled onto Gunbad last night, thought I'd start a thread of screenies with a spiffy Night Goblin standard.

Can't wait to hit up that place next weekend looks like fun

Been a few more places, seen some things that'd turn you white...

Welcome to Talabecland, Destruction is going to eat you alive...


Mannsleib and Morrsleib, the two moons of the Warhammer World. The greenish moon is said to be made entirely of Warpstone, a physical manifestation of the Winds of Chaos. The Names mean "Beloved of Manaan" (the god of the ocean) and "Beloved of Morr" (god of dreams and death (morr is a good god))


A shrine to Grandfather Nurgle, one of the principle gods of chaos. His demesne is Rot and Entropy. Anytime you're dealing with a plague, or some such life withering thing, 9 times out of 10, he's behind it.

Still traveling, looking in places I wouldn't normally go in my leveling grind...

A shrine to Sigmar. The human empire of Sigmar tends to use the bones of their dead as a sort of talisman. The skull has special significance in the Empire, and they love to build reliquaries to hold them. One of the old beliefs held by the early human tribes, before the formation of the Empire, was that the Skull was the seat of the soul, or spirit of a person. This belief gave the symbol of a Skull great importance, once that was reinforced over time and became one of the most prominent symbols utilized in the Empire, even by various disparate religious groups.


A statue just down the road from the Sigmarite Shrine, it appears to be a representation of the Elven goddess Lileath. Her powers include Dreams and Fortune.


This is the fate of those who worship chaos, though looking at this I would say Chaos placed this body here, based on the livery of Ostland worn by the corpse.

Felix and Gotrek in Altdorf! Dude! Some of the most famous adventurers in all Warhammer Lore...

Gotrek Gurnisson is a Dwarven slayer, a Dwarf who has brought shame upon himself and has taken an oath to seek death fighting in honourable combat. Like all slayers, Gotrek had shaved his hair into what usually is a cresent shaped mohawk. Through the trials he has faced he has lost an eye in battling with the orcs and goblins and appears to be large and muscled. He wields a battleaxe imbued with powerful rune magic. Having gained this weapon during his first excursion into the northern Chaos Wastes, where he recovered it from the dead son of King Thangrim Firebeard. Gotrek's axe is as powerful as that wielded by the dwarven High King, Thorgrim Grudgebearer. This weapon was the Runemaster's Axe of the lost dwarven horde of Karag Dum, and supposedly previously belonged to the dwarven deity Grimnir. Although the link is rarely, if ever, directly stated, the suggestion appears to be that the second, and more powerful of Grimnir's axes is now wielded by Gotrek Gurnisson. The elven mage Teclis once read the magical aura of Gotrek, and determined that immense power is flowing from the axe and slowly changing The Slayer into something greater than an ordinary dwarf.

Felix Jaeger is Gotrek's reluctant companion and rememberer, after Gotrek saved Felix from being killed in the window tax riots in Altdorf. In a drunken stupor, Felix had promised to record Gotrek's death so that his honor could be maintained. Dwarfs take oaths very seriously, so Felix was compelled to travel with Gotrek. Felix is a human with a swordman's physique and long blonde hair, who favours a chain shirt and red cloak. Over years of following Gotrek, Felix has become an accomplished swordsman and duelist. His own weapon is the rune sword Karaghul, a blade with a dragon hilt recovered from the fallen hold of Karak Eight Peaks. A relic of the Order of the Fiery Heart templars, it was forged for the purpose of slaying dragons. It grants him a shield from a dragon's fiery breath, as well as providing a powerful confidence when facing such a creature.

"Blood for the Blood God, Skulls for the Skull Throne!"
Battle cry for champions of Khorne.
Found me another chaos shrine, well, second time I found it, it is a PQ after all. So that's 2 out of 4 major chaos god shrines I've found. Anyone seen a Tzeentch or Slaanesh shrine in their travels?
