Recent publications from Games Workshop have altered parts of Nagash's story both ancient and current. Forgetting his latest reincarnation and the night of the restless dead, an alliance of his most faithful has been written into his history to tie in with a new expansion pack for Warhammer Fantasy: The End Times, which places Nagash center stage as the great threat looming over the warhammer world, unknown by the inhabitants at large. With the mists of time and the decay of ages on his side, all knowledge of the great necromancer has all but been forgotten, the few scraps referencing the father of death magic locked away in musty tomes deep below Altdorf. In this latest campaign package, the vampire Mannfred Von Carstein, having returned from his defeat at Hel Fenn, has sought new allies in a gambit to return their great master to unlife. With the aid of many old favorites such as Heinrich Kemmler, Krell, Neferata and Arkhan the Black, a powerful ritual has been devised to not only restore Nagash to physical form but also rejuvenate his considerable powers. Spanning many years, the agents of Nagash searched far and wide for each component of the great spell ranging from personal items and treasures from his long life to an 'unblemished soul' of purest quality - stealing the phoenix kings daughter as she departed diplomatic talks from Karaz-a-Karak, the capital of the Dwarf kingdoms. The ritual complete, Nagash has returned to the world with a vengeance, promising untold destruction upon all who draw breath. Gifting his loyal subjects with steeds fashioned by his own hands and imbued with spirits from the underworld, Mannfred, Neferata and Arkhan spearhead Nagash's new legions, uncounted thousands of dead rising up to the call of the great necromancer. With the world largely unaware of the horror returned, Nagash begins his ambitious campaign to end all life and rule over a kingdom of the dead spanning the entire planet...
