Summary

Nagash, known by many names such as the Great Necromancer, the Great Betrayer, the Usurper, the Undying King, the Supreme Lord of Undeath or simply He Who Shall Not Be Named, is the ultimate personification of death and the undead, an ancient, evil being who sought to conquer this cruel, chaotic world and bring about an age of undeath that will rule for all eternity. Nagash is darkness and unreasoning hatred given form, the father and creator of foul Necromancy and lord of all Vampire-kind. His every actions and deeds is self-serving, his achievement horrific and loathsome, and his every whim are bent solely to ensure that no one shall ever deny nor challenge his right to rule ever again. This dark, evil being came close to ultimate domination, but if not for the sacrifice of an Alcadizaar the Conqueror, this world would've been lost millennia ago.

Now, many generations later, his name became little more than a legend, his dark whispers echoing eternally upon the Wind of Shysh. Though he may be gone, death itself could never truly claim his soul, and for centuries after his demise, his eternally damned spirit has since recovered his power, whispering to the ears of all those that had served him, and those that soon will.

Always, he steered them towards his reawakening, his final apocalyptic rebirth upon the world. Nagash vowed to bide his time, not returning until his powers were regained in full, until he was ready to reign supreme against all life. He envisioned the world filled with the silent, unthinking undead, a realm where only his will and thoughts can think freely and without challenge. However, the portents were troubled. The Dark Gods were moving, and Nagash realized that unless he returned to thwart them, Chaos would finally conquer all. This time the Great Necromancer was going to claim the power of death itself. He would choke all life from the world and rule eternally in the darkness that Followed. This time, there will be nothing to stop him from reaching his ultimate destiny, and to those that try, they shall bow before the true Lord of Death.

Powers and Abilities:

Attack Potency: Wall level (Far superior to Zombies/Undead who can rip humans limb from limb. Stands at 7 feet tall), Large Island level, possibly Large Country level with Magic (Created a storm the size of a very large city instantly, likely scales to Greater Daemons), far Higher with Rituals (Has a ritual that causes a black veil and storm to cover an entire country. Created a ritual that he planned to use to kill and resurrect every person and corpse on earth) | Large Island level (Comparable to Sigmar who could trade blows with a Bloodthirster which generate powerful storms with merely their wing beats), Large Country level with Magic (Comparable to the greatest mages of the Pre End Times era, such as Caledor Dragontamer who caused the 'Sundering', a cataclysm of magic that shook the bowels of the earth. It caused Earthquakes which were felt seven thousand kilometers away in the Worlds Edge Mountains and utterly devastated the Elvish continent of Ulthuan, shattering islands and causing mountains to literally sway and shake) | As the Incarnate of Shysh Nagash is by far the most powerful incarnate and pre losing his Black Pyramid was confident he could take them all on at once. As having the entire lore of Shyish within his body, is comparable to the strongest feats of magic and power within the setting,^[2] is comparable to the Morskittar Engine destroying Morslieb^[2] and Lord Mazdamundi's consequent destruction of the various pieces.^[2] Able to trade blows with Kha'Bhanda who casually fought most of the incarnates at once. Comparable to but weaker then Sigmar. Comparable to First Dragons whom could casually destroy entire planets.^[3] Comparable to First Dragons whom have eyes as large as a Star.^[3] Mages even before The End Times could move stars with two seperate spells.^[4] The unravelling of the Vortex extinguished stars^[5]), possibly Universe level+ (Nagash, as an Incarnate, contains an entire wind of magic within himself, which crystallizes into space-time for each new universe.^[6] Comparable to other incarnates whom survived the Chaos Rift which was destroying the universe.^[7]) | Outerverse level (Resides over the Underworld, a vast domain in the Realm of Chaos that the Chaos Gods have no influence over)

Speed Supersonic (Faster then Vampires that can outrun musket fire), Massively Hypersonic Reaction speed (Comparable to vampires/elves that can react to attacks made of lightning) | Same as before | Same as Before | Omnipresent (In his domain)

Lifting Strength Likely Class 5 | Class M (Fought on par with Sigmar, who fought physically against Bloodthirster who scales above Saurus, who scale to this feat), possibly Class T (Greater Daemons possibly scale to rituals, and thus theoretically scale in strength to mage lifting towers) | Class T (Comparable to Archaon) | Immeasurable

Striking Strength Wall level | Large Island level | Moon level | Outerverse level

Durability Wall level (As a trained Nehakaran, would be comparable to his own undead/zombies that can tear 7 foot tall Nehakarans limb from limb) | Large Island level (Can trade blows with Sigmar) | Outerverse level (Able to trade blows with Usurian in the Realm of Chaos)

Stamina High (Physically Nagash can take extreme amounts of punishment and continue to fight, when left with mortal wounds he was able to crawl through the desert for months in a beyond death state. With magic it depends on how much Dhar there is available in the area. Due to his Black Pyramid he almost constantly has a store of Dhar available to him. Rituals leave him significantly weakened but not crippled)

Range Hundreds of Kilometers (At least five hundred kilometers. His abilities work across 'hundreds of leagues') Planetary with Rituals (was going to kill and resurrect everyone on earth) | Same as before (Nagash's shadow can fall across entire continents causing their populations to feel immense fear) | Planetary (Nagash can kill people attempting to use Death Magic anywhere on the planet) | Outerversal

Standard Equipment The Black Pyramid, Alakanash – Staff of Power | Mortis – The Great Blade of Death, Morikhane – Black Armour of Nagash, The Nine Books of Nagash

Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius. Created an entirely new lore of magic, something which should technically be impossible for anyone not the level of the Slaan such as Lord Kroak. Wrote 9 tomes of magic detailing the intricacy's of Necromancy. Is a master of incredibly complex rituals, capable of casting spells and peforming feats vastly above his normal strength using them. Was actively plotting against and beginning to worry The Four Chaos Gods.

Weaknesses: Rituals take multiple days to cast and leave him significantly weakened. | Using too much energy can weaken him physically. He circumvents this problem with his Black Pyramid where he is constantly capturing and storing Dark Magic. | None notable.

Aethyr Manipulation: Unrivalled master of the Lore of Undeath, Lore of Death, Lore of Dhar, Lore of Hysh, Lore of Nehekhara, Lore of Vampires

The Black Pyramid of Nagash: A truly colossal structure standing at around 1000m high. This flying pyramid acts as a conduit for Nagash to store power for his complicated rituals. Made out of black marble and the corpses/souls of countless slaves that where added to the structure, it is filled with countless pathways and a multitude of traps. Nagash and his allies are the only ones who know the best route through it.

The Crown of Sorcery Nagash's crown magnifies his power a thousandfold. It passively nullifies the effects of the winds of Magic. and absorbs magical energies to protect Nagash as well

Mortis is a huge magic sword that crackles with unearthly power. The blade was forged and enchanted by Nagash himself and no-one else may use it. The sword increases his already considerable strength, and wounds caused by the sword can be used to heal Nagash himself. Merely scratching an enemy with it will instantly snuff out their life force.

Morikhane – Black Armour of Nagash - Nagash's armour is forged from an alloy of lead and meteoric iron. Over the millennia the armour has fused itself with his body, so it may only be worn by Nagash. Obviously, the armour does not prevent him casting spells.

Etched with runes that automatically ward him from enemy abilities.

Alakanash, The Staff of Power: Was created by Nagash to allow him to store the additional power he needed to carry out his most arcane and dangerous magical spells. He uses it as a smaller version of his Black Pyramid, it is constantly absorbing Aethyr for Nagash to utilise for his abilities.

Nine Books of Nagash – Nagash was the first and greatest of all the Necromancers, and he created almost all of the spells that allow these followers of the dark arts to raise and control the Undead. The secrets of his magical spells are recorded in nine massive tomes known as the Nine Books of Nagash. Each book contains the secrets of one of Nagash's Necromantic spells. Contains spirits that Nagash can utilise to replenish his strength and restrain his opponents.
