Vampire Counts Introduction | Warhammer Old World Lore
About this episode
In our Warhammer Old World Lore deep dive episode 23, we unveiled Dhar's total love, and not at all sexual desire, for the dead. We looked at their origins and their sudden and inexplicable division between the wet dead and dry dead. We looked at the 5 main bloodlines of vampire vounts, some of the regions of Warhammer that they infest, and their relations with the living. We then cast our minds back to the origins of the dead, the first glorious empire of man, Nehekhara. We looked at the events of Khemri and Lhamia and the life and ambitions of Nagash and the vampiric queen Neferatum. Returning from death, Nagash kills all but one of the mortal beings of Nehekhara and curses the surviving vampires as they flee before his power.
