I thought about this idea for a possible Legendary Hero collector thread
Great that you take the effort.
Will you update your first post so we can have all the collection ?

Feedback:
Malus Darkblade -very likely a Lord character.
Is a well-known General in fluff and has some interesting quests for magic items.

Wood Elves:
You could argue both Hero and Lord implementation for Naestra & Arahan
and Korhill

I think you missed one out, though

Kerillian
basically the Woodie counterpart to Shadowblade

My Favourites:

Genevieve Dieudonné -rouge Lahmia Vampire

Elspeth von Draken- Death Wizard on a dragon

Konrad von Carstein- though I would prefer him to be a completely unmagical Vampire Melee Lord

Yeap, I have thought of going through all the factions. Here comes part 2. What you think about this one ?
If they will take Malus Darkblade then they will cut out some other character. I hope its not Lokhir Fellheart
Kerillian added.

Inhisname

Theres a lot of choices for the Empire and Skaven for Legendary heroes.

WOWWOWOWOW hold on to your griffon's beardling Eltharion the Grim IS NOT a hero level Character that would never ever fit the Warden of Tor Yvresse he let such a successful invasion of the badlands that the Greenskins to this day think that the pointy ears are good for figthin' and gobos are afraid of elves because of that. He is a leader of armies, not some rando guy. Also, the whole being blind thing is retconned.

RikRiorik#9890

Gotrek and Felix. No thread about anything legendary is complete without a mention of them.

Corocotta

To the High Elves you forgot Imrick Lord of the dragons... I think is more important than Caradryan and Korhil.




Also they changed Eltharion story in the eighth edition, is no longer blind.

Ok, thanks for feedback

alex33#8263

And imrik is no hero either he is the prince of caledor and thus the one who leads their armies... and hopefully a dlc character

Jam#4399

I want Araloth as LL. I want to see a wood elf LL that looks like an elf himself.

Naestra and Arahan are LH.

Krell should be LH aswell...

Eltharion and Imrik as LL rather than LH.

Malus Darkblade should also be LL.

Abhorash should also be LL.

Kalliste#9190

you forgotten the Everqueen

Alarielle the Radiant is the current Everqueen of the High Elves and the eleventh to rule since the time of Phoenix King Aenarion many thousands of years ago. Alarielle, like previous Everqueens, represents the mortal embodiment of Isha, Mother-Goddess of the Elven race. She is the spiritual heart of all of Ulthuan, her glowing hair is like a golden cloud, and it is said that so great and timeless is her beauty that it can move even the immortal gods to tears. The Everqueen’s power is that of nature itself. Where Allarielle walks, the fields start to blossom and flowers spring forth from the ground.



I think she will be in the High elf vs Dark elf expansion

She will be vs the Dark elf, Morathi (as they both have a thing for Tyrion).
Morathi thinks he is Aenarion, returned.

Helhound#7332

You forgot the most important lizardmen.

Gor-Rok- the most legendary albino lizard, who emerged alone from his sacred spawning pool rather then alongside a full cohort of his Saurus brethren.

Far too large even compared to others of his kind, Gor-Rok was immediately heralded as a champion. He lived up to the title.

Revered for his tenacity and stubbornness in battle, dozens of seemingly fatal wounds mar his scales yet he still stands. Not only does he not fall, hes never even taken a step back. Always forward.

In one hand, The Mace of Ulmak. But in the other his true weapon. The Shield of Aeons. He has fought all across the world, slain warbosses and the monsters that the Dark Elves would command. He strode through the Chaos Wastes and tested his Shield against the fury of Greater Deamons. He still hasnt taken a single step back.

How'd you miss this guy ☺
