![]() Unless Sigmar hung around to Karl Franz' soul for thousands of years, there's no way it's him. Either Karl Franz's soul or part of it could have hung around in his mortal body after the wind of Azyr with Sigmar inside of it crashed into it, staying with Sigmar until he decided to use it as a dry run for forging his very first Stormcast or if Karl Franz had really died his soul would have been bound for Morr's realm, by then along with most of the other WFB death gods' underworlds subsumed by Nagash. I'm surethat at some point during the Age of Myth or Chaos Sigmar could have easily bartered or tricked Karl Franz's soul from Nagash or failing that, stolen it without his knowledge or taken it by force.Īnything's possible when you're writing in broad strokes about imaginary gods on a vaguely defined timeline with even vaguer powers! There's no reason Sigmar couldn't have had Karl Franz's soul to hand when he forged the Celestant Prime. Chances are GW don't even know who he is beyond who he's not. Or some other king who we will no doubt get some backstory on one day. But it's not Franz.Ī much better candidate would be the King of the Lantean Empire. I'd honestly be dissapointed if it were him. It would be even worse from an AoS metanarrative, as the Prime becomes a character that new fans of AoS have literally no connections to. It would be poor storytelling for it to be Karl Franz. This all happened before the Stormcast were even a twinkling in his lightning-wreathed eyes. This happened before the chaos invasion, the battle of the burning skies, the retreat to azyr. This happened before the pantheon of Sigmar. This happened before the Mortal Realms were a thing. This happened before Sigmar became a fully fledged god (when he grabbed his hammer). ![]() It blasted into Karl Franz' corpse, hurling the nearby Glotts through the air with the power of its collision. A twin-tailed sphere of pure force slammed out from the hole in the sky. Ībove the Glottkin, the skies ripped open to reveal a celestial otherowlrd. The bladed severed it without slowing and plunged deep into the Emperor's heart. A thunderclap boomed high above as Karl Franz raised his good arm to deflect the blow. Lightning flashed Overhead as Otto raised his stolen runefang and swung it down with a road of triumph. ![]()
