Knights of Tzeentch

The Knights of Tzeentch, also known as Kaldour's Knights of Tzeentch, are mighty warriors, men of great intellect and wit, cunning and wise. Many were nobles of great importance, men with great temporal power. They despised their peers so much that in yearning for the company of equals they abandoned humanity and civilisation. Scorning warbands of brutish Beastmen or uncouth Ogres, they have joined together as a band of warriors.

Most of the Knights of Tzeentch ride great Chaos Steeds in battle and carry lances in a grotesque echo of the Knightly Orders to which many of them once belonged. The Knights of Tzeentch wear deep imperial blue and rich yellows, their weapons are often gilded, and decorated with gems and carvings.

The Knights carry ornate back banners decorated with the symbols of their master – the flaming chalice, the unblinking eye, the coiled serpent, the symbol of broken balance and many, many others.

Some of the Knights of Tzeentch ride to battle in chariots. These are splendid and spectacular creations. They typically boast a whole array of silk banners, ribbons and feathered standards. The chariots of the Knights of Tzeentch are slender constructions, finely made from rare materials like silver or ivory.

The Knights of Tzeentch choose their Grand Master from amongst themselves with a complicated and twisted process of voting. The current Grand Master is Lord Kaldour. He is blessed with the many-layered wisdom of Tzeentch himself, and is as cruel as a Daemon. He is first amongst equals, a man who uses his considerable talents and intelligence to bring misery and destruction upon the world.

Lord Kaldour wears silver armour that is polished to shine like a mirror. It is said that a man can see his reflection on the surface, but that reflection will be warped and twisted, showing the innermost potential for darkness in his own soul.
