History Characters / Warhammer

* DarkIsNotEvil: Amethyst wizards harness the wind of Shyish, death, but are no more evil than any other wizard.

* {{Darwinist}}: Malekith generally encourages the ChronicBackstabbingDisorder going on to make sure his society stays strong.

** Invoking Khaine to win a battle isn't a bad but making him the important god, let alone worhipping him in the open, is a no-no.

* DumbMuscle: Sort of, the Saurus are are knowledgeable in the art of warfare, but [[CripplingOverspecialisation lack much skill with anything else]], to the point where their dialect is entire war-related. The Kroxigor seem to play it more straight; while they're useful as both workers and shock troops, they're not known for intelligence. (though they may understand more than they appear to)

** Nurgle: ThePigpen, SinisterScythe, EnemyToAllLivingThings

*** There's also several minor chaos deities, like [[DarkIsEdgy Obscuras]].

** Pestilens: TheCorruption; NauseaFuel; PlayingWithSyringes

* KnightInShiningArmour: they're not called "Silver Helms" for nothing.

* {{Determinator}}: Especially in combat with the Dark Elves.

* {{Ninja}}: Shadow Warriors
* {{BFS}}: Swordsmasters.

* TheMasterSwordsman: They're not called Swordsmasters for nothing.

* IncorruptiblePurePureness: The Everqueen. She kills demons just by being near them.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: The Everqueen again.
* SiblingYinYang: Tyrion and Teclis: One is the greatest warrior of the High Elves, with charisma and power to beat most, the other is a sarcastic cripple who needs magical potions to even function. Oh, and he's one of the greatest magicians of the world.
* SwordBeam: Sunfang, Tyrion's sword. It shoots [[KillItWithFire fire]]
* AutomaticCrossbows: the Eagle Claw Bolt Thrower is a repeating ''ballista''.

* SpikesOfVillainy: The Dark Elves seems to like them, provided [[{{Stripperiffic}} there's enough space for them]].
* BloodKnight: Witch Elves, all Dark Elves to some degree.
* ReligionOfEvil: The High Elves worship two pantheons, one of "good" gods that should be worshipped and served, and one of "bad" gods that should be appeased and kept at bay. The Dark Elves give themselves over to the Bad gods, most notably the God of Murder.
* {{Pirates}}: How the Dark Elves make their living.
* GrimUpNorth: their homeland, ''Naggaroth'' means "The land of Chill" On the world map they are the equivalent of ''Canada''.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Dark Elves are mariginally less fratricidial than the skaven or the orcs... Mariginally.

** Malekith is one himself, but he's the only male sorcerer at the moment. The reason for this is because a prophecy indicates Malekith will be killed by a male sorcerer.
* {{Darwinist}}: Malekith generally encourages the ChronicBackstabbingDisorder going on to make sure his society stays strong.
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: The queen mother Morathi [[spoiler: is a Slaneesh worshipper and may have had a hand in corrupting her son the Witch-King]].

* BaseOnWheels: The Black Arks which are actually castles kept afloat using sorcery. In Soviet Warhammer, ''castle storms you!''

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: Mounts and [[BeastOfBattle Beasts Of Battle]] include variants of Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Deinonychus, Pteranodon & Ankylosaurus.

* CrystalDragonJesus: Worship of Alluminas resembles in some ways Buddhism (the fact he is more popular in the East doesn't help matters), and he has angel like daemons. Solkan's cult is pretty much akin to millitant religious groups.

*** Therre's also several minor chaos deities, like [[DarkIsEdgy Obscuras]].

* LightTheWay: Alluminas, unsurprisingly.

* WhiteMagic: For their followers.

LawfulNeutral: Both Alluminas and Solkan express this in two different ways: the first acts so long as to enforce the lack of change, while the later acts solely to stop Chaos. Neither cares about the methods used nor inoccent lives taken.

* LightIsNotGood: While technically neutral (and generally apathetic), Alluminas is pretty much opposed to change, even if for the better, and may grant his followers the ability of casting a light that makes anything it touches unchaning and unmoving. Cue AndIMustScream.

* MakeMeWannaShout: The Beastmen's Lore of the Wild has a spell that allows a character to do this.

BeastMan: The {{Mooks}} start at this, and further up the chain they get more monstrous.
