Sindri Myr

His voice is like wine. Evil wine.

Sindri Myr, commonly known as SSSSSSIIIIINNNNNDDDRRRRRIIII, was a Chaos sorcerer of the Alpha Legion and notorious jackass. He betrayed the bulk of his warband and manipulated a Blood Ravens Librarian in order to obtain the Maledictum and ascend to Daemonhood. His ascension to Daemonhood was short-lived - cut short by Gabriel Angelos - but daemons are essentially immortal, so he'll probably be back eventually (although the Daemon of the Maledictum listed Sindri as a sacrifice, which means it consumed his Daemonic essence, permanently destroying him).

He is well-known for his chillingly calm voice, which all but oozes evilness (except when he tries to shout; then he sounds like a pussy), and the hilarious, often sarcastic dialogue he has with Lord Bale, a level of awesomeness that no Chaos Sorcerer since has managed to replicate (ever since they changed the voice-actor in Winter Assault for reasons best-left nebulous). He is also known for being yet another example of Relic fucking up Fluff. as Sindri invokes Khorne several times (and Khorne despises sorcerers) and the Daemon who is freed by him ultimately is a greater daemon of Khorne. This is something that would be repeated in Winter Assault.

However, one should remember that as a member of the Alpha Legion, he is probably a closet loyalist in reality and is thus evoking Khorne, knowing that he will get pissed at him and the other gods for his use of magic to spark more infighting amongst the gods of Chaos; thus contributing that much more towards the ultimate defeat of Chaos. Or maybe because he honors all of them due to being Chaos Undivided.

Tartarus

Sindri, along with Lord Bale, sought to gain a powerful artifact called "The Maledictum" (A stone imprisoning a Khornate Daemon). Being a cunning and manipulative planner (And also using the Alpha Legions tactics of stealth and guerilla warfare), he found it more tactical to hide in the shadows while their pawns, The Orks, distracted the Imperial Forces from noticing them. He constantly had to cope with Bale's bitching, mistreatment and constant threats while he carefully planned to get the Maledictum. He eventually got the key and, later on, betrayed Bale to the Blood Ravens. He also was able to corrupt the Librarian Isador after constant tempting from visions (Who was then killed by Gabriel Angelos). He finally ascended as a Daemon Prince, though it was, as stated above, short lived after Gabriel smashed his face (and subsequently the Maledictum) with a Daemon Hammer.

About Sindri

Sind'aw Myr.

He displays the usual traits of a Chaos Sorcerer (regardless of Chaos God affiliation): He is intelligent, cunning, manipulative, arrogant and has a constant thirst for greater power. He is also shown to be very calm and laid back, even when enemies are closing in. He is also very patient and doesn't lose his temper (Though he does become very annoyed with Bale after obtaining the Maledictum). He is an oddity amongst Chaos Sorcerers because he seems to worship Khorne (Very, Very, Very odd, considering that Khorne hates and distrusts Sorcerers, to the point where he'd kill one outright if one tries to offer a sacrifice to him) Sindri is armed with a Bedlam Staff (A Tzeentchian Daemon Weapon from the previous edition), which steadfastly marks him as an Undivided Sorcerer. This is unusual as Bale appears to be a Nurgle Lord (armed with a Manreaper), though given the fact that Relic has handled fluff about as well as this faggot, we should be thankful they're not all armed with Multilasers

Trivia

• If a Chaos Lord or anyone of high-rank is betrayed by a second in command, the correct term would be "Sindri'd". You may also pronounce it as "Sindri...SIIIIIIINDRIIIIII!-'d"
• It could be argued that he may be as equally awesome as Ahzek Ahriman (Chaos Sorcerer of the Thousand Sons).
• Sindri appears to have made a pact with Slaanesh for his voice, considering it's a lot smoother and seductive than the other Sorcerers found in the expansions. It is theorized that he can turn any woman, pious or commoner, into a heretic by simply speaking, thus it is most fortunate that the sisters of battle were not sent after him.
• His voiceactor is Scott McNeil (MIGHTY IS HE), and his voice style returns in DoWII Chaos Rising for the regular sorcerers, which many heralded as the most awesome thing to happen to Chaos in a video game.
• His last lines. "Just a moment more damn you...Yes it is UPON US! BEAR WITNESS TO MY ASCENSION!!! GRAAAAAHH!!!" are perhaps the most awesome lines in all of Warhammer history, tied only by Kyras' "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!!!! LET THE GALAXY, BURRRRRRN!!!!!!!!"
• Sindri is the name of a Dorf from Norse mythology.
• No relation to Myr watsoever.
• When Sindri turns into a daemon prince, he is MUCH stronger than the version of the unit introduced in Dark Crusade and is actually stronger than the game's relic units (he's still beatable though, the player will have already those down and not even with the full arsenal the game lets them have). So unlike Eliphas, Carron and Thorgar The Blooded One, him turning into a daemon prince is an upgrade and not a downgrade since they get stuck with turning into balanced version intended for multiplier games.
