Sigmar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In addition to Thor, Sigmar appears to be partially inspired by sword-and-sorcery barbarian heroes, especially Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian, Charlemagne, the first Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, and Arminius, the warlord who led the Germanic tribes against the Roman legions at the Teutoburger Wald. |
 | | From that point onward, Sigmar embarked upon a campaign of purgation and liberation throughout all of the tribal lands, primarily against the Beastmen (Beasts of Chaos) and Goblinoid races (Orcs and Goblins), culminating in the First Battle of Black Fire Pass (IC -1), in present-day Averland, in the southeast of the Empire. |
 | | Interestingly, Sigmar never claimed to be a deity and his own religious beliefs while alive are subject to conjecture, although tradition dictates that he was crowned Emperor by the High Priest of the cult of Ulric, the northern god of winter, wolves, and war. |
