Editing Boris Ursus (section)

==In Total War Warhammer III==

He is Kislevs 3rd "secret" legendary lord and will be playable after capturing and holding Kislev (the city), Praag and Erengrad for 10 turns in the Kislev campaign. In the TWW version of the lore after he was killed his body was washed away in the river Lynsk and frozen in ice. [[Kostaltyn]] knows where he is entombed, and regularly visits it to meditate at the location, or vent his frustrations regarding Katarin's focus on politics rather than ''directly'' acting to better Kislev.

He is obviously resurrected to rejoin the battle against Chaos. ''How'' he is revived seems to be different though, with at least ''three'' conflicting versions in the very same campaign -- either through the efforts of Katarin or Kostaltyn's forces (the actual quest battle), the Advisor thawing him out to ask for his aid in getting a drop of Ursun's blood (start of his campaign), or Ursun roar reviving him outright (Boris' own words this time). No matter what caused it, the fact that Boris was revived ''outright'' from death is impressive, given the lack of obvious revival or resurrection magic in Warhammer lore, especially compared to D&D.

Regardless of the cause, Boris is back, and he's built for combat with high armour and damage. His ability trees give him a bunch of leadership and combat buffs when fighting Chaos and large units (these overlap a lot), as well as buffing any bear-related unit like Bear Cavalry and the Elemental Bear. And he'll be even stronger when you find Urskin after he ran off to krump Chaos warriors.

He also looks like Mark Addy from [[A Song of Ice and Fire|Game of Thrones]] and a Knights tale.
