Though the 7th edition sourcebook for the Empire does mention Castle Drachenfels a few times it shows up in the timeline as notable for the year 2203, and is depicted on the map of the Empire as being in the Grey Mountains, near Axebite Pass.Other authors continue to reference it, creating the bizarre situation wherein Drachenfels himself is never brought up but Detlef Sierck's plays are. Canon Dis Continuity: Pretty much, but people love it anyway.Brainless Beauty: Lily Nissen, the actress brought in to play Genevieve.Killing the Great Enchanter, for a start. Badass Bookworm: Astonishingly enough, Detlef does have his moments.Aristocrats Are Evil: Played straight with Oswald von Konigswald, averted suprisingly (given the nature of the Warhammer world) with most of the others.When he died, there was a mass exodus of trapped souls finally leaving. Freezing people in place to starve to death with a feast laid out before them, trapping people in tiny pocket dimensions to be chewed on by rats for all eternity.okay, the second one might have been an illusion to fuck with Genevieve. And I Must Scream: A favourite of Drachenfels.Affably Evil: Drachenfels, mostly just to mess with people.Apparently not small enough to stop the Black Library bundling the latter in with their Vampire Genevieve collections.

It occupies a bizarre place in the Warhammer canon, suffering from a huge, setting-wide case of Characterization Marches On. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?ĭrachenfels is a Warhammer novel by Kim Newman under his Jack Yeovil pen name, first published back in 1989. The original band who travelled with Oswald are reunited for the play's premiere, a one-time performance staged in the very walls of Drachenfels' abandoned fortress, attended by all the nobility of the Empire. Oswald has a proposition for him: he wants to produce a play about his defeat of the Great Enchanter Drachenfels, and he wants Detlef to write and star in it. Twenty five years later, Detlef Sierck, the Empire's greatest playwright, is rescued from debtor's jail by the Crown Prince Oswald. They fall to his minions and his Death Traps one by one until only the brave prince remains to fight the sorcerer and vanquish him at last.
