Sindri Myr
Sindri Myr, or more commonly known as SSSSSSIIIIINNNNNDDDRRRRRIIII, was a Chaos sorcerer of the Alpha Legion, and notorious jackass who betrayed the bulk of his warband and manipulated the Blood Ravens Librarian in order to obtain a Daemonic artifact (the Maledictum), and ascend to Daemonhood. His ascension to Daemonhood was short-lived - cut short by Gabriel Angelos - but then again, daemons are ultimately immortal and the only thing that could really stop them from fucking everything up is by banishing them back to the warp ((though it is in fact possible to destroy a daemon for good by destroying them so hard that their essence becomes so scattered that they will not be able to reform for any reasonable period of time, one can also just destroy their essence; though this requires a lot of power)), so he'll probably be back at some point or another. Though the fact that the Daemon of the Maledicum listed Sindri as a sacrifice suggests that he had consumed his Daemonic essence; which would permanently destroy him.
He is well-known for his chillingly calm voice, which all but oozes evilness, 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.
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
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.
I'm not going to bother typing up a second rebuttal to the same argument so I'm just going to do some copypasta; 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.
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 more 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, 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.
