Emelda Braskov
Emelda Braskov is a human from Mournhold and the last living member of the Braskov family. She bears a particular grudge against Radukar the Wolf, ruler of the city of Ulfenkarn.[1][2a]
History
Age of Sigmar
Emelda Braskov is the last living Braskov, a noble family from Mournhold.[2a] She joined the military as part of a family tradition where the firstborn sons and daughters were offered to the military.[3a] Though top command positions were always out of reach, she was tasked with leading the army as it went out to fight the chaos worshipers around Cor Mortifus.[2b] After the Necroquake, the Vampire Lord Radukar the Wolf destroyed the army of Ulfenkarn and left Braskov as the sole survivor. Since then she has sworn to slay the vampire.[3a]
Emelda Braskov teams up with Gustaff Voss and Morrvahl Olbrecht.[2a] Through their attempts to use the Baron Grin murders to lure Radukar into the streets, Emelda Braskov realizes that the murders are similar to the offerings the maurader tribes she fought offered to Khorne.[2c][2d]
After discovering the Khornate temple used by the Baron Grin, the group is ambushed by Radukar.[2e] With Voss' sacrifice, Braskov and Olbrecht are able to escape.[2f] They are captured by the Volkshaufen and transported to the Ebon Citadel where they meet Jelsen Darrock.[2g] They are freed by Qulathis and flee to the relative safety of Dagnai Holdenstock's airship.[3a]
Equipment
- Dawnlight: Emelda's personal broadsword.[3b]
Quotes
'This is my city. I fought for it outside the walls, and by Sigmar's blood I'll fight for it inside, even if I have to drive my sword right through its black and corrupted heart.'
- Emelda Braskov.[1] |
Trivia
There is a disparity between how the Cursed City game and Cursed City novel describe how Emelda Braskov's army was destroyed.
- Both the website and quest book state that Radukar destroyed her army and she alone survived the destruction.[1][3a]
- The novel says her army was destroyed as it fought the Chaos tribes, whittled down to a sole survivor.[2b]
