Having only recently fought against the dark forces of Mallobaude in the Bretonnian Civil War, he knew that his kingdom had enough problems of its own. Alas, he was forced to draw such an idle fancy from his mind. Duke Cassyon, woken from his slumber by a sentry's call, wondered what vital errand drew the Fey Folk eastward. Their course took them close to the walls of Parravon. The great host set out from Athel Loren on the dead of night, striking north towards Axe Bite Pass. He was once the Duke of Aquitaine, a mighty warrior who quested determinedly in the Lady’s name. He is an Undead scourge upon the Kingdom, but it was not always so. This article contains information regarding the End Times, the actual canon ending of Warhammer.ĭuring the the events of the End Times, a Wood Elf army, led by the champion Araloth, was tasked with aiding the High Elves in rescuing the Everchild from the Vampires of Sylvania. So it is with the Red Duke a warrior of terrifying renown who now wages war across Bretonnia in search of ever-greater power. True to character, the young Grail Knight soared away as soon as Bretonnia was victorious, likely searching for more foes to smite. It was only when the army of Parravon arrived, the Duke himself riding at the head of his household knights, that the conflict finally found resolution. By the time dusk fell, the ground about Montfort was choked with blood and the screams of the wounded threatened to eclipse the last sounds of the dying battle. The battle was fierce, with both sides drawing upon reserves of energy and courage whose existence few men would credit. Battle of MontfortĬassyon notably fought against the Empire at Axe Bite Pass, coming to Montfort's aid while Tristan le Troubadour hunted down a traitor who had assisted the Sigmarite invasion. The Duke is also known as the Margrave of Parravon, a title often used in formal letters and missives. ĭuke Cassyon's prowess has not escaped the notice of the Parravonese, and the story that he is Duke Agilgar reborn has recently started to spread. There is no doubt that he is good at that, but there are matters of taxation, justice, and administration that should also be seen to. On the other hand, he believes he can fulfil his ducal duties simply by riding across the skies of the dukedom and striking down monsters. He is an open and enthusiastic young man, bearing no malice towards anyone, which makes it almost impossible to dislike him. The Duke's counsellors find him very frustrating.
