History Characters / MordheimCityOfTheDamned

* PowerBornOfMadness

* DarkActionGirl

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: A notable {{Aver|tedTrope}}sion. Magisters are weak fighters which is hugely detrimental in the early game, where Leaders do most of the warband's heavy lifting.

%%* DualWielding
%%* GlassCannon

%%* AxCrazy

%%* BaldOfEvil: Emphasized by wearing a mouth-mask that leaves their cranium exposed.

%%* JackOfAllStats[=/=]MasterOfNone

* BodyHorror: Guess who can get Chaos mutations?

%%zce* EvilSorceress

* ScaryImpracticalArmour: They've got very stylized heavy armor covered in sharp edged plates, along with a metal HighCollarOfDoom and a helmet that features sweeping bat wing decorations.

* BodyHorror: He doesn't look like a particularly healthy chap, sporting a hideous lump on his back that his heavy armor protects with a crude dome.
%%* JackOfAllStats

* {{Necromancer}}: Magic is banned in the Empire at this point is history, Necromanctic magic doubly so, so most Necromancers can be found far from civilization. Vampires see Necromancers as allies of convenience and so shelter them, though some mortal practitioners of the dark magic can grow powerful enough to rival them.

* BodyHorror: His jaw is dislocated and hanging off.

* DualWielding

* EvilSorcerer

* SquishyWizard

* BadassCape

* CannonFodder

* TheBrute

* DumbMuscle

* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership

* SmallNameBigEgo: Claims to be the greatest Skaven assassin in the world.
* SmugSnake
* StealthExpert

* {{Magitek}}: A lot of Skaven technology runs on what the Skaven call "Warpstone", justifying their ventures into Mordheim to collect the stuff. The Skaven are actually more technologically advanced than the Empire in many respects, such as having equivalent firearms technology.

* BadassNormal

* FragileSpeedster[=/=]GlassCannon

* CombatMedic: They have healing spells, making them the only warband with access to in-battle healing without using consumable (and expensive) potions.

* JackOfAllStats

* KillItWithFire

* CannonFodder
* DualWielding
* JackOfAllStats

* CannonFodder

* NewMeat

* AwesomeButImpractical: Averted, unlike most of the other Impressives. As the only Impressive unit who isn't a GiantMook, the Maiden of Sigmar can traverse terrain normally like any human-sized unit, loot items and wyrdstone, cast spells, and enter buildings. She's also ImmuneToBullets, which makes her immune to one of the primary ways of dealing with Impressives and plugs a vital hole in the Sisters tactics, allowing her to bullrush archers and tie them up or kill them outright. Finally she can wear armor and carry shields, with extremely high weapons skill, allowing her to hit reliably, be hard to hit back, parry consistently and reduce the damage she actually takes if your enemy manages to get through all that. This makes her more tactically useful than the other Impressives, but she doesn't skimp on her raw power one bit.
* BlingOfWar

* DualWielding

* ThePaladin: THey fit the mould, being holy warriors with divinely granted magical powers.

* ChurchMilitant

* ThePaladin

* LightIsGood

* TheLeader
* MagicKnight

* DoomedByCanon: By canon, the Sisters of Sigmar fail to reclaim the city and are largely destroyed by the Lahmian vampires. The survivors go their separate ways and many join the service of other gods like Morr.

* ArcherArchetype: Marksmen start with longbows. While weaker than guns, their ease of use combined with the Marksman's bonus accuracy on successive hits makes them useful support weapons.

* ArcherArchetype: The only hero in the Cult roster competant with bows. However, gaining any weapon mutation will avert this trope.

* ArcherArchetype: Though capable in melee, Dregs tend to stick to their bows as this lets them hang back with their masters and offer support.

* DropTheHammer: His starting weapon is a great hammer.

* DropTheHammer: The Sisters, in true medieval holy warrior parlance, never use swords or edged weapons except for daggers. They prefer to wield hammers, or alternatively CarryABigStick or EpicFlail. The unique weapon of the Sisters is the Sigmarite Warhammer, a brutal warhammer styled into the shape of Sigmar's twin-tailed comet which also helps reduce the chance of Divine Wrath.

* EpicFlail: Her starting weapons are a pair of flails. Given she's the Sisters' caster hero however, you'd be better off with [[DropTheHammer Sigmarite Warhammers]].

* DropTheHammer: Starting with a mighty Great Hammer, the Sister Superior is a hefty hitter.

* DropTheHammer

* DropTheHammer

* DropTheHammer

* DropTheHammer: Either a two-handed great hammer or a one-handed Sigmarite hammer with a shield.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: She's a noblewoman but she's always going barefoot which fits her Nehekharan stylings.

* BladeOnAStick: Halberds are the default weapons for Youngbloods.

* BladeOnAStick: Starting weapon for Zealots is the spear.

* BladeOnAStick: They start out with halberds.

* BladeOnAStick: Start with spears and shields.
* CannonFodder

* BladeOnAStick: By default they have a halberd.

* BadassInCharge: Will be the Mercenaries' heaviest hitter until the Ogre Mercenary comes into play, and he's the warband leader.

* BadassInCharge: Uniquely, Bertha serves as both your warband's sponsor ''and'' your HeroUnit. Presumably the High Matriarch didn't get her position by being a pansy.

* BadassInCharge: Vampires are some of the most powerful units in the tabletop version of the game, and they don't disappoint here either.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Assassin Adepts are the most ruthless, cunning and dangerous Skaven, and [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder given how Skaven society works, they need to be]].

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority

* AnAxeToGrind: Most Mercenary units can be equipped with axes or great axes, with the exception of the Warlock.

* AnAxeToGrind

* AnAxeToGrind: His starting weapon, unique to his class, is the Great Ulrician Axe, a heavy, two-handed weapon with bonus critical chance and reduced risk of triggering divine wrath when casting.

* AnAxeToGrind: His default loadout is a pair of axes.

* AnAxeToGrind: Their default weapon is a great axe.

* KillEmAll: As far as he's concerned, Mordheim is beyond redemption and all of the evil that infests it must be purged with sword and flame.

* [[EvilSorceror Evil Sorceress]]
