Golden Patriarch
The Golden Patriarch is the Lord-Commander of the Celestial Warbringers Stormhost.[1a] It is said that he is so skilled in the art prophecy that he serves as Sigmar's own prognosticator.[3a]
History
Age of Sigmar
It is believed that the Golden Patriarch personally led the Conquest of Brightspear, freeing the ancient citadel from the influence of Tzeentch's minions and establishing what would become the Free City of Brightspear.[1a]
The holiday of Writmark, celebrated annually in Brightspear every twelfth day of Hope's Renewal, is held in celebration of the founding of the city when the Golden Patriarch was given, so tradition says, the Celestine Writ granting the Celestial Warbringers the right to colonize the area around the recently conquered Agloraxi Citadel.[1a]
Powers
The Celestial Warbringers are drawn from the Azyrite tribe known as the Nepholites, a people of great mystical power of prophecy. Many of the Warbringers inherit these abilities, especially the ability to perceive their Final Death. The Golden Patriarch is an especially potent seer and has foreseen that the Soulbound will play critical roles in battles yet to come.[2a]
