Boris Todbringer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boris Todbringer is a fictional character in Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy wargame. He is the current Elector Count of Middenland. He is a great warrior and a brilliant statesman. For three decades he has been the head of his famliy (the Todbringer famliy). Boris is now advancing in years and there are whispered rumours that personal and political problems weighs heavily on his mind. His battles with the Beastmen in the Drakwald Forest, in particular the banebeast Khazrak whose eye he took and in turn lost his own right eye to the year after, are a ceaseless struggle. It is also said that the loss of his second wife, Anika-Elise, almost twenty years ago was a blow he has still to fully recover from.

However, if these rumours are true, Boris Todbringer, is a determined man indeed, for outwardly he remains a vigorous as ever, a fearsome fighter and leader. He regularly leads the armies of Middenland personally, smiting his enemies with his Runefang and urging his soldiers to victory.

Boris Todbringer was instrumental in the defense of the province of Middenland when Archaon, and his followers, invaded Kislev and the Empire. The armies of Ostland and Middenland, and troops from Hochland and Kislev felled back to Middenland where Boris Todbringer lead the soldiers of the Empire in the defense until the Emperor relieved the city.
