Editing Queen Neferata (section)

==Age of Sigmar==
Then [[Age of Sigmar]] happened. Nagash is an immortal god of the afterlife and gets all souls Chaos doesn't, barring the [[Stormcast Eternals]]. Since Games Workhop undid their complete reboot with identical factions reappearing, Vampires came back too. Neferata was shown alongside the other Mortarchs meaning that the entire End Times story meant jack. But since Khalida hasn't been shown and the Tomb Kings were revealed to have been Squatted, Nef at least outlived her. Neferata got her own part of the realm of death and "creatively" named it Nulahmia while also basing it's fashion and architecture off of Nehekhara's. She built an even bigger spy network and ensured that she was the top vampire. Mannfred, Ushoran, and possibly Vhordai (and definitely Abhorash if he is still alive or "alive" at any rate), are the only ones who don't pay homage to her, and Neferata and Mannfred have clashed several times. She's also gotten over her misandry, as she employs male and female vampires depending on their abilities.

Later, Nulahmia came under attack from an army of mortal followers of Chaos of Slaanesh, because a Slaaneshi Chaos Lord wants her for himself, not caring that she's undead. Quite a thing to sneak past the kiddies, Geedubs! (In the novel Lords of Death, the same lord kills a beastman who tried to stop him raping it). Her forces are aided by the Stormcast Eternals and together they defeat the forces of Slaanesh. Neferata later tries to make a secret alliance with the Stormcast right under Nagash's nasal bones. After the battle (where Neferata's obsessed fan Chaos Lord falls into a pit of skeletons), Neferata is disappointed that Nagash was just dicking with the Stormcast but had to go along with it. During Malign Portents, Neferata used her manipulations and spy network to keep Tzeentch's forces occupied, undermine Sigmar's forces and spread Nagash's influence across the realms.

Not too long after, Neferata's double dealing causes Nagash to punish her by putting half her city under Arkhan's rulership; Arkhan himself doesn't really want the city, but "when Nagash says 'jump'..." so Arkhan left a vampiric vassal of his to rule in his stead. She also has to contend with rebellious nobles who want to kill her rallying under a noble she turned into a vampire and an invading Khornate army led by the Chaos Lord Ruhok. Neferata uses her powers and schemes to play them all against each other, and ends up destroying the Khornates, rebels and much of her realm by temporarily releasing the black hole in the center of Shyish (and a clever ploy involving said noble being a Manchurian Agent). As a result Nagash gives full rule of Nulahmia back to Neferata and she rebuilds it. In the lead-up to the Necroquake, Nagash got Neferat to use her Legion to keep Sigmar's forces and Chaos worshippers distracted, which - apart form the Skaven slipping through - succeeded.

Fast forward a few centuries and Neferata begins to wage war against the Khornate forces of Angaria (a name that rivals [[Angron]] in creativity) and its daemon prince ruler Graunos. The prince is oddly cunning for a daemon of Khorne, and is aided by the nearly-as-cunning deathbringer Kathag - one of the few survivors from Lord Ruhok's forces. They refuse to play Neferata’s game of manipulations and spying, [[Just As Planned|unknowingly playing right into the Mortarch of Blood’s hands]]. Through a series of infiltrations and convoluted schemes that’d make Tzeentch orgasm with joy, she managed to wipe out the entirety of Angaria by [[Awesome|dropping an entire underworld on top of the city, wiping them out just like the Skaven did to the Lizardmen]]. She followed up by duelling Graunos, and defeated the Daemon Prince by slashing his eyes, triggering the scotomaphobia (fear of blindness) Graunos still had from his mortal origins, which made him destroy himself when he desperately tried to use purging fire be brought from Hysh to restore his sight.

One interesting part of her character hasn't been extrapolated upon yet; whether or not she still has a thing for [[Arkhan the Black]]. Some parts hints that Arkhan isn't the same as he was in the [[Warhammer Fantasy|World-That-Was]] and may not remember Nef at all, but we don't know how Nef herself feels about this - if she cares at all, that is. They clearly have a thing going in the Josh Reynolds novels, but that's it. Maybe the [[The End Times|coming apocalypse]] brought her inner sweetheart out for a short while.

Like two queen bee girls bickering, it turns out Neferata doesn't like Olynder. When Olynder was strong-armed into bargaining with Be'lakor, Neferata was happy to use that as ammunition against her. Katakros didn't care because it still greatly harmed Sigmar's plans, but Nagash was certainly mad about it. Her main focus after the end of the Soul Wars became stopping Mannfred's incursions into her territory, and she's working on a huge and painful revenge against her fellow Mortarch.

During the Events of Broken Realms: Teclis, Nagash sends her to Chamon to try and turn the local realmgate into a blackhole generator linked to Shysian Nadir that will pull the realm into Shyish. Despite her attempts to distract the locals from her plans via her agents, her plans are uncovered when a local Khadron Overlord gets suspicious as to why all the airships are avoiding one specific spot in the realm and goes to investigate. The Overlord is severely aged for her trouble but manages to escape and warn the rest of the Duardin. The Overlords arrive just in the nick of time and Neferata makes her escape collapsing her lair behind her burying a bunch of her persuers alive.
