Godbeasts are gigantic monsters from the Age of Sigmar setting. These colossal beasts are typically the progenitors of the various breeds of monsters that plague the mortal realms. Most of them died in the Age of Myth, being slain by Sigmar, Nagash or Gorkamorka, but several of them have survived into the Age of Sigmar, some of which have even fallen to Chaos.

Notable Godbeasts

Behemat

The Father of Gargants. Archaon planned to corrupt him to Chaos, forcing the Stormcast Eternals to kill him.

Dracothion

Progenitor of the Stardrakes and Dracoths, the star-dragon Dracothion is one of the closest allies of the Pantheon of Order, being the one who guided both Sigmar and the Seraphon to the Mortal Realms.

Skalok the Skull Host of Khorne

The only godbeast with an actual (albeit Forge World) tabletop model, Skalok was a mighty dragon slain by the Khornate lord Vorgaroth the Scarred. Impressed by Skalok's might, Khorne resurrected her as his servant and forced her to work together with Vorgaroth by cursing them so that if one was ever slain, the other will be destroyed by Khorne's fury as well.

The Spider God

An arachnid godbeast worshipped by the Spiderfang Grot tribes. Believed to have been an ordinary spider that bit Gorkamorka on the foot and absorbed his power.

Vulcatrix

The Ur-Salamander and mother of the Magmadroths, Vulcatrix died in battle against the Duardin god Grimnir.
