    The Cursed City of Praag Opens For the Lorebeards!

    There are many dangerous and foreboding cities to be found in the world of Warhammer, but there's one that stands above all others when it comes to being truly cursed. Once the mighty bastion against Chaos in the North, Praag suffered a brutal fate at the hands of the 12th Everchosen, Asavar Kul. After its utter annihilation and defilement at the hands of Chaos, this twisted ruin was rebuilt by the stubborn people of Kislev in the hopes of taking back that which the Dark Gods had stolen from them. Join Andy and Sotek as they venture into the whispering alleys and proud spires of Praag to unveil its history, tragedy, and legacy.

    Morghur the Shadowgave Shambles Unto Lorebeards! The Master of Skulls Seeks Delicious Gods to Eat

    There are countless horrors to be found within the Warhammer world, but not all nightmarish creatures are equal. Among the deep forests of the Old World there persist rumors of a horrid entity known by many names. Known as Gor-Dum to the Dwarfs, Cyanathair to the Elves, and the Shadowgave to Men. But to the Beastmen, the true Children of Chaos, he is Morghur. A repulsive fiend who perpetually mutates both his own body and all things around him, the Shadowgave is far more than a simple Beastman. He is, in truth, a terrible God of Mutation that ever attempts to force his way into reality so that he might track down and devour the Divine. Join us as we bask in his corruptive presence to know the truth behind the true God of the Beastmen.

What can be learned by dredging through the ocean of blood left in the wake of Arbaal? What does he represent and what might be his destiny as the world rampages on? Come along as we head into the Blood God's domain to seek the truth!
