* This would explain Morathi's UnexplainedRecovery, and ties with fact she noted to have been "changed" by her captivity by Slaanesh. Not to mention, Morathi is now served by Daemons of Shadow, who resemble Daemonettes. It would also be a ironic HistoryRepeats itself, as Morathi was suggested to be Slaaneshi [[TheMole mole]] who seduced Aenarion, and now she probably tries to do the same with Sigmar and [[ParentalIncest Malerion]]...

* He rather nicelly fits as being seemingly made out of stars, similar to the concept of Star Gods of C'tan. C'tan were one of the few entities in Warhammer 40,000, that didn't have an analogue in Warhammer Fantasy (even the Emperor of Mankind had analogues in Sigmar and the Everqueen), so Games Workshop might have thought it would be interesting to use one in the Warhammer Rebooot. Not to mention, after Dracothion mentored Sigmar, Sigmar created Stormcast Eternals, which are quite similar to Necrons, aside from resembling Space Marines, as noted on the Characters Page.

Not to mention, their relationships with their unierses respective Emperors, mirror each other nicelly. Dracothion saved the hurled through space Sigmar, and taught him, while the Emperor of Mankind traveled through space to Mars, to defeat the Void Dragon, and used Mag'ladroth to subconciously guide Cult Mechanicus.

!!Dracothion is Sotek. Sotek wasn't a Old One, but it was created as a fail-safe by the Old Ones to safeguard whatever remained of the world in another possible instance of end times.

** The process of creation is completely different. Also, about Draigo, the Quest of Ghal Maraz books implies that the silver-armored giant Araloth encountered wasn't him, but a Stormast Eternal (a Hallowed Knight, the ones who looks like Grey Knights). It's not that known, but the warp has an habit to mess with time. People charged against GW like about this because the above point, and Matt Ward being the author didn't help, but what they did was a mere Foreshadowing.

** Aside from Gotrek Gurnisson canonically [[EpicFail failing to complete his Slayer Oath]] so hard that he survived the end of the World-That-Was and turned up in the Age of Sigmar, the novel ''Hamilcar, Champion of the Gods'', mentions not only that Stormcast leaders tend to name the Chambers they lead (Hamilcar Bear-Eater's Chamber is known as the Bear Eaters, in fact) but also that there is a Chamber of the Anvils of the Heldenhammer called the Imperishables. Lead by Lord-Celestant Settrus. If he's who he's implied to be, then Sigmar having Vlad reforged into a Stormcast Eternal would be '''easier''' to pull off.

!!Sigmar is engaged in long-term Batman Gambit to redeem Archaon, possibly into his successor.
Redemption seems to be a theme in Age of Sigmar (Malerion, Daemon [possibly Settra] being turned into a Stormforged Eternal). Combine that with Sigmar being the incarnate/god of heaven magic, which includes prophecy, it could be that Sigmar has seen how to end the Chaos gods. First, he has a prophecy created that exactly describes a young Archaon who then questions his god's willingness to help him overcome the horrible destiny. Even then, Archaon still set out to end Chaos by bringing it to its (il)logical conclusion of entropic death. In this process, Teclis is inspired to unchain the Winds of Magic from Chaos allowing magic to be uninfluenced by Chaos so that when the WTW ended, it would reform without the ingrained chaos. It is a slow process, but Sigmar is enacting a plan to end the dark gods.

!!Vlad von Carstein/Vashanesh will be revealed as the Lord-Celestant of the Anvils of the Heldenhammer.
Consider the Following:
* The Lord-Celestant of the AotH has yet to be revealed.
* They are said to be "reforged as the Broken World span sinister beneath a fell aspect" resulting them having a more dour attitude.
* They are said to "heroes of an old era" but it is never specified which.
* They are willing to accept their "deaths" for the greater good to an unusual degree.
* They are a unique Stormhost assigned to Shyish, Realm of Death.
* The AotH Color Scheme is near identical to one of the later Vlad models.
* Forbidden Power seems to be hinting at some of the older heroes/villains might be returning.

*** The differences in their creation process (among other things) can be explained as simple Euhemerism. Someone accustomed to medieval standards of living can't understand "drop pods", so they record it as "lightning bolts". They can't understand "the Apothecary recovers the gene-seed and plants it in a new host, which causes some genetic similarity in the recipient", so they just record it as "the Relictor collects his soul and takes it to a magic forge where the God-King remakes him".

Someone accustomed reporting to medieval standards of living can't understand "drop pods", so they record it as "lightning bolts". They can't understand "the Apothecary recovers a Lord Commander, with either Sigmar or the gene-seed and plants it in Celestant-Prime apparently commanding all the hosts. That's very much like the Legio Astartes structure, with a new host, which causes some genetic similarity Primarch in the recipient", so they just record it as "the Relictor collects his soul Prime's place and takes it to a magic forge where the God-King remakes him".Great Companies instead of Stormhosts.

... Games Workshop didn't turn back when they made Warhammer 40k 3rd edition, which introduced almost equally big changes and was met very badly at the beginning. They are not going to bend the knee. So don't get your hopes up. Plus, some fans have finally started to like and in some instances, love AoS. In a few years, it's going to be great, thanks to the world development.
