The Grave Lord of Sylvania has shifted his base of operations from Castle Drakenhof to Castle Sternieste, separating his realm from the Empire with a wall of bone. Capturing the survivors of Volkmar the Grim's crusade, as well as the Everchild Aliathra, Mannfred has used their blood to turn Sylvania into a realm shrouded in eternal night, blocked off from the Empire. But Balthasar Gelt responded by erecting a wall of faith around his land, trapping all undead within Sylvania. Mannfred grows restless, as the world crumbles around him and the forces of Chaos begin to slip into his realm, all the while his vampires begin to plot his downfall and drink the province dry. Opportunity comes in the form of Arkhan the Black; after a brief duel, the two agree to work together to bring back Nagash. Mannfred's ambition to control the Great Necromancer, however, may be too much for even him to handle...

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.
