Regimental ChampionsĪmongst the many armies of the Warhammer World, regiments are often accompanied by a single, battle-hardened Champion. The dream of the Champion is to not die old and rich, but fall with his bloodied sword in hand, dead enemies at his feet, and his deeds crowned with honour. For him, it is enough that his deeds will be immortalised in story and song. Accruing money is secondary to attaining glory, and a Champion will often lend his sword-arm to a worthy cause for no reward. Ī wandering Champion will seize any chance to increase his renown, whether it is dispatching a marauding Goblin warband or slaying a terrorising Minotaur in its forest lair. A wise leader knows it is better for a Champion to put his fighting abilities to the test elsewhere than turn them against his fellow soldiers in frustration. The Champion’s commander usually grants this request, knowing that the Champion will return to duty when needed. Each day spent enduring the monotony of camp or meaningless drills is a day where his prowess is wasted. In the long months of winter when armies must be barracked, or during the rare times when the Empire’s borders enjoy peace, it is common for the Champion of a regiment to request leave to wander the lands in search of opportunities to test his mettle. Their weapons are inevitably among the finest to be had in the Old World. Many Champions serve in armies, warbands, and martial orders, though others wander the Empire, selling their formidable skills to the highest bidder. They live for the moments when their skills are tested to the utmost, for only then do they truly know just how good they are. Champions are not necessarily leaders of men, but as individual combatants they are peerless.
