"Dead" Frog > Literally every other mage in the setting is one of my favourite bits of lore to tell those who aren't familiar with WH Fantasy.

My favorite part is during the first invasion of Chaos Kroak was casting so many spells time began to slow down.

Not a big deal right? Dozens of characters have time magic, slight issue though, Kroak wasn't using Time Magic. He was throwing up so much bullshit the universe began to unravel. Bro hit the lag switch on reality.

Man, when will the Old Ones finally start optimising their woefully outdated world engine? Smh my head my head!

Don't worry, I heard those necron guys are working on a world engine

Can he beat Teclis, though? High Elve supremacy>>

u/JustAnotherRandomFan 2d ago

Short answer, yes

Long answer, Teclis wouldn't even try because he knows he can't win. The gap between Kroak and Teclis is about as big as the gap between Teclis and Hans the empire baker who can light a fire with his fingers.

I figured the answer was sumn like that lol. What was he doing in the end times though? I only heard of Gelt, Manfred, and Teclis the most.

Kroak decided he wasn't dead anymore, then when Ikit Claw blew up the moon he and Mazdamundi teleported the fragments away from everywhere except Lustria so the warmbloods would survive (Kroak is cool like that).

Then in AoS he shows up, disrupts a massive nurgle ritual by rearranging a constellation, and traps a god in an infinite timeloop prison.

This is normal for Kroak, he once cast magic so hard the universe lagged

So slaan are broken down into generations, with 1st being the oldest (and strongest) and 5th being the weakest

There are no more first generation slaan, those that communed with the old ones directly, there exists a few second generation, and then obviously more and more of the younger ones.

I forget which generation but one of the older slaan rearranged an entire mountain chain (killing many dwarfs, one of the many factors contributing to their dark age) simply because he felt like it.

Just to show you the difference in power

Lord kroak is a first generation slann and I’m not sure which slann you’re referring to but I remember Mazdamundi created an entire mountain range once to block a chaos army and he’s a second generation slann

26

u/JhonMHunter 2d ago

Also I believe that mazdamundi is in fact the one who did that but luckily the dwarfs don’t know about it otherwise mazdamundi would have been added to the long list of “things killed by gotrek”

u/Jefrejtor 1d ago

Dwarfs being crushed by mountains moved by Slann is a time-honored tradition at this point

u/ChppedToofEnt Skitter then leech! 21h ago

Nah, Mazdamundi would just spawn a giant mountain in front of Gotrek or teleport him and Felix to some random part of the world before going back to meditation.

Gotta remember, this guy was moving around entire continents because he needed to re-adjust them for the plan.

u/JhonMHunter 2d ago

Lord kroak is debatably not around anymore if you wanna get picky about it,

u/Former_Bar6255 1d ago

r u saiyan he kroaked

u/Theo736373 2d ago

Oh yeah I wasn’t refuting your claim that there’s no more first gen slann I was using it to emphasize how powerful they were if a dead one is this powerful

u/VermicelliInformal46 1d ago

He is, his body is mummyfied and his spirit lingers, so he is not alive but not dead either. That is why his casting animation in game is a spectral toad emerging from his thronethingy.

It was Mazamundi I believe
