Editing Von Carstein (section)

===[[Age of Sigmar]]===

Technically speaking the Von Carsteins “exist” in the sense that Mannfred is still around and his newly turned minions make up his “Legion of Night”. It’s unlikely humans would survive there making it a Bloodline of one at the time, but he has since sided with anyone against Nagash and any mortals he turns are now part of the Von Carsteins. Since Games Workshop has not committed to which specific characters didn't survive the ET, any character can and sporadically has returned so Vlad, Isabella, Konrad, even the named redshirts from past obscure lore, could all be brought back into the story at any time.

After getting out of his punishment Mannfred founded a realm called Carstinia, which was similar to Sylvania in environment and architecture. At his castle, he was served by vampiric servants made or conditioned into being yes-men and made to look like all the other von Carsteins including Vlad, Isabella and Konrad. However Mannfred eventually accepted how hollow his fantasy was and saw it as a reminder of his past failures, so rarely spends time in Carstinia anymore.

Following Nagash’s house arrest thanks to Teclis, the vampires are now free to run amuck. After deliberately doing a sloppy job of spreading the Nadir to Ghyran, Mannfred was eager to do some conquering of his own by immediately invaded some of Neferata’s land with his armies.
