It was only thanks to the skill and heroism of Duke Tancred of Quenelles that the abbey wasn't destroyed utterly in a three-way battle. In 2491 IC they attacked Brettonian abbey at la Maisontaal which contained a powerful artifact stolen from the Skaven leading to the Battle of La Maisontaal. The tales of these two monsters were many. His first target was the small village of Frugelhofen in the Black Mountains, as well as a nearby mine and farm. The name of the Lichemaster once again struck terror into the hearts of ordinary folk. They restored him to his former power and in return, Heinrich swore to slay and destroy in their name. Here Kemmler struck a terrible pact with the gods. It was in the Vaults where by some quirk of fate, he uncovered the tomb of Krell a long dead Chaos Champion whose burial mound was so magnificent it towered high above him. Tomb of Krellįor many years Heinrich wandered the Grey Mountains and the Border Princes as little better than a half-sane beggar.
Although he finally managed to scatter his attackers with a great spell of confusion, his body was broken and his mind blasted in the battle. At the Battle of Ten Thousand Skulls, Kemmler's foes succeeded in driving him to his knees. United, those who Kemmler had defeated proved stronger than even the self-styled Lichemaster. In these days of glory, he enjoyed his life, laying down potent wine made from the grapes of Qua-Arnaan, drops of lotus and mushrooms. His star was in the ascendant for many decades until ambitious rivals began to usurp his power. In the crypts beneath castle Vermisace he had overcome the ancient Liche wizard and all his acolytes and was since known as The Lichemaster. In the dark woods beyond the town of Bögenhafen in the western Empire, he had overcome the three Vampire Wizards of Blutwald and all their armies of walking dead. In the hills beyond Quenelles in Bretonnia his army had smashed the zombie legions of the Council of Nine, an alliance of nine powerful necromancers. Kemmler became a great and much-feared Necromancer, plundering every Wizard's tower and ancient temple he could find in his search for dark truths. He plunged into the world of necromancy as a young man, and by the time he had reached his fortieth year he was able to raise entire graveyards of corpses to do his bidding. Having recognized the limits that mortality placed upon him in his early years, Kemmler made it his life's work to escape them. When going into battle he wields the Chaos Tomb Blade, and the Skull Staff, a potent magical artefact that chatters and gibbers constantly. He is shrouded in a large dark cloak that can carry its wearer across the veil between worlds.
Beneath Kemmler's robes, his body is covered with scars, cuts and abrasions from his years of madness whilst his hair is long, filthy and white. He stands a little over 6 feet in height.
