Icon of the Shark Strait Sea Dogs, the Zombie Pirate fleet commanded by the Vampire Fleet Admiral Barron von Heastie, as depicted in Total War: Warhammer II.[1]
Barron von Heastie was a Vampire Fleet Admiral who commanded his own fleet of Undead Zombie Pirates known as the Shark Strait Sea Dogs.[1]
History[]
A once-famous vintner from Bretonnia, Heastie was aboard his trade ship en route to deliver goods to the New World. Near to reaching their destination the ship was beset by the legendary pirate Rozov von Drak. As the Undead stormed Heastie's ship, sparing not one of his crew, he made his last stand at the helm.[1]
Surrounded, and with swords to his throat, his enemy made an offer: join him as a Vampire and serve as his first mate. Heastie, without much choice, all things considered, accepted Drak's offer and so came to serve the Vampire lord for many years aboard his ship, learning not only the ways of piracy, but also those of Dark Magic.[1]
Heastie always harboured his own grand plans for greatness, however. One night, as he stood with von Drak at the helm, Heastie drew his blade and lopped off his master's head. He stood there as the Skeleton crew crumbled to piles of bones, before raising the lifeless husks once more to serve him instead. Now as captain of the ship, and with a crew of Undead, he has begun a reign of terror all his own![1]
