History
At beginning of the Age of Sigmar it dwelt in the Hanging Valleys of Anvrok in Chamon, its warpfire breath heating up the Great Crucible and creating rivers of metal that flowed into the other Hanging Valleys. Dracothion fought Argentine during the hunt for Ghal Maraz to allow the Stormcast Eternals to climb the waterfalls of now-solid metal. After the fight, it would return to heat up the sea again, only stopping to run away from the light of the Alchemist's Moon.[2a][2b][2c]
The Godbeast fled to the Mercurial Gate, where it slumbered and healed in the depths of the Molten Sea until awoken by the defenders facing an onslaught by the forces of Order. Argentine arose and breathed fire on the combatants, but before it could do more, its old enemy Dracothion smote it with his own fire, challenging the dragon to combat. The silver wyrm rose up into the sky to fight its rival once more. [3a]
Once again, Dracothion was victorious and Argentine was forced to flee, this time burrowing deep beneath the Goldvault Mountains. [3b]
Powers
Its breath is made out of warpfire and it can vomit tides of daemons.[1][2]
Star-sign
Those born under Argentine's zodiac sign, the Silver Wyrm, are believed to react quickly to danger.[5a]
