==The Legend==

''"So it came to pass that the Sisters of Sigmar succeeded in the impossible, and gathered so many of shards of the Wyrdstone wounding the body of Sigmar’s realm that their quest was completed: for in the cataclysm that destroyed Mordheim, there were also seeds of salvation. As the dread Shadowlord descended with the comet to bring eternal night to the Empire, so came a ray of hope. A stream of light, the second tail of the comet, fell upon the Rock, the fortress convent of Sisters of Sigmar. Within the crater it left behind they discovered a hideous horned daemon, holding in its heart a glowing orb, which clearly caused it immense pain. Wisely choosing to bind the creature with blessed chains of gromril, the Sisters sought guidance from their god through their all-seeing Augurs. Their prayers were answered, and as instructed by their Augurs, the Sisters set out to free this servant of Sigmar from the skies above: they were commanded to gather the shattered pieces of the comet, seal them deep beneath their tempe in the Vault of Redemption to stop their corrupting influence from empowering the demonic creature holding the mysterious light.''

''After many months of most bitter struggles, and after losing dozens of Sisters of the Order in brutal street fights, one day the High Matriarch Bertha witnessed how the daemonic form around the glowing light shattered with a wail of utter despair and impotent rage, and from it emerged their long-awaited saviour: Within they found a child of unsurpassed beauty, a girl with unmistakable golden hair of the Unberogens tribe and blue eyes shining brighter than any star or gemstone, her laughter a peal of silver bells that was like finest wine on a parched soul. She was of Sigmar and yet her own person too: Both a girl of eight years and an emissary of the patron god of the Empire. They named her Johanna Heldenhammer, for her lineage could not be doubted. ''

''Within hours of her awakening the girl spoke to the Sisters: Johanna told that she had been sent to find and crown the rightful emperor of men, not to rule herself: Sigmar, the wise Father of Men, wanted his people to grow up independent, proud and strong, not relying on supernatural help. Sigmar also knew that should he install an immortal, all-powerful ruler on the Throne of the Empire, his people would in the end be no more free than under a rule of a tyrant.''

''Despite the protest of the High Matriarch, Johanna insisted to start her search of the holy regalia of the True Emperor immediately, for she sensed that at least one of those treasures was hidden somewhere within the ruins of Mordheim. So with a heavy heart, Bertha sent the most trusted of her servants to accompany Johanna to face the immense perils of the City of the Damned.''

''THE GUARDIAN''

''From her birth, Johanna has been accompanied everywhere by supernatural Guardian, sent by Sigmar to protect her until she grew to her full strength. Most people see the Guardian as a great bird of light carrying a mighty warhammer akin to the the legendary Ghal-Maraz, others claim that the Guardian is a lamb of purest white with eyes like the blazing sun, while some see a fish with gleaming silver scales, a giant creature that swims through the air as if it was water. All agree that the Guardian moves with the swiftness of an eagle and allows no harm to come upon Johanna."''

===Canonicity===
Johanna was replaced by the significantly weaker [[Valten]], and if players want to consider alternate universes she'd be his Rule 63 self that would have won Storm Of Chaos.
