The Host of the Everchosen are the forces of chaos united under the banner of Archaon, the Exalted Grand Marshal of the Apocalypse and the greatest champion of the Dark Gods, charged with conquering the Mortal Realms in their name. His presence unites the armies of chaos, turning the myriad armies into a single brutal force of domination. Archaon's endless thirst for conquest drive him to fresh wars, hunting his enemies to extinction as his armies scour the realms for new foes and nations to fight and destroy. If allowed to conquer the realms there will be nothing left but endless landscapes mutated by Chaos, seven already under his control, with the exception of the Realm of Azyr. Mighty monuments to the Everchosen's glory looming over ruined cities, bone-covered plains and broken mountains as his ominous banners snapping in a wind thick with the stench of death. The arrival of the Stormcast Eternal has dawned a new age of battle, one that the Everchosen welcome with dark joy at the chance to complete his war of annihilation.[1][4]
Some of the places conquered or destroyed by Archaon's armies are: the God's Eye in the Glimmerglass Mountains, the Eyeless Vale, the Daemontooth Bastion in the Steel Kingdoms, the Bloodwell of Vos and the Splintershard River.[5]
