==In Fantasy== Morghur is old. Like, terribly old. He was born when most of men were either [[Chaos]] or non-Chaos tribes, with some exceptions like [[Cathay]] and an already ruined undead [[Nehekhara]], in a small tribal Bretonni village to human parents. His birth killed his mother by ripping through her with his teeth and claws as his power mutated her. When the distraught father tried to strangle the newborn Morghur, he was hideously mutated upon touching him. Followed by all the people and livestock in the village; afterwards, [[Grimdark|humans crawled around like animals with twisted limbs, the animals walked on their hind legs as they talked to and devoured each other]]. After that, he escaped into the forest, killing, corrupting, and probably [[Rape|raping]] everything he saw. Eventually he found a cave, his power warping it so the stone walls ran like water, forming skulls and showing visions of destruction. Burning hatred simmers within Morghur's heart, and he is consumed with the desire to make his waking dreams become reality - to rip down civilization in all its forms, to shatter order wherever it is found and to change the world constantly and randomly. As he walks, everything in his presence is irrevocably changed. Grass turns black and grows in strange patterns beneath his hooves, streams begin to flow backwards and animals mutate horribly. It was so catastrophic, that [[Ariel]] intervened and ordered his extermination (even though she never saw him yet), which, needless to say, [[Fail|did not succeed]]. While eventually, Ariel managed to find him out and injured him with her fire magic, Morghur survived and eventually gathered the biggest warherd the world ever knew. [[World War II|Asrai, obviously, underestimated the power of the mutated goats and never even tried to stop him.]] So, when he finally attacked [[Athel Loren]], the inhabitants weren't ready. The invasion lasted for a year, until Ariel finally killed Morghur with the help of [[Coeddil]], who grabbed Morghur while Ariel struck him down... but he reincarnated. And by the way, the parts of the forest that Morghur invaded was either mutated into new forms or corrupted, the latter '''including''' Coeddil himself. After the resurrection, Morghur led his forces to corrupt the Silverspire Mountains springs, which fed the trees in Athel Loren but was killed by [[Orion]]. He was reborn again but was unlucky enough to meet [[Gilles le Breton]] in battle. As Morghur was reborn again, he stopped the plans to invade Asrai heartland, and instead continued his efforts to destroy the springs '''and''' kill The Lady to weaken the will of the Bretonnians. While he failed all the times he tried, Morghur always returned nonetheless, and with even bigger warherds, turning every place he visits into a hellhole. The last time he reincarnated Wood Elves tried to kill him while he was still a child and failed miserably. While Morghur indeed failed to conquer Athel Loren, he was pretty successful in the other forest - Arden, the biggest one in [[Bretonnia]]. It is now a dark place of horrors and thousands of dead bodies, where living trees devour anyone who doesn't pledge to Chaos. And while Ariel scouts managed to kill him again in there, he is returning. '''He always returns.''' As a tabletop character, he has a bray-staff that turns enemy wizards to Chaos if they fail at spells, magic stones that destabilize the Winds of Magic themselves, an aura of mutation that can turn transform enemy projectiles into all sorts of harmless (to Morghur) things and unnerving chattering skulls in his fur (if you can name it fur anymore). Notorious for his great nerf in-between editions, that greatly restricted his magic and turned him into a Hero unit.
