The Broken Angel

== Overview ==
The Broken Angel, the Grey Ghost, the Lost Stormcast, and the Shrouded Eternal, are all names for a singular being who has appeared across the Broken Continent. for centuries, ever since the start of the Age of Sigmar. A mysterious Stormcast Eternal, no one is fully aware of who he is and what his exact purpose is, but the Broken Angel has mysteriously appeared at key pivotal events and battles all across Panghura, fighting against the forces of Chaos, Death, and Destruction, before just as quickly disappearing, only to reappear elsewhere. Even the local Stormcast of the continent do not know who the masked figure is, but regardless, all forces opposed to Order must be ever vigilant against the hammer and ax of a warrior clad in broken armor and rusted weaponry, with half a shattered wing on his bank but a burning vengeance within his heart.
== Rise to Greatness ==
The figure known as the Broken Angel, among a dozen other names and titles given by other tribes and nations over centuries, first began to appear sometime after the start of the Age of Sigmar. Nothing is known of his earlier life, with even Stormcast unsure of who he is, as he has never revealed his face, and he is clad in the broken and old Sigmarite armor of other Stormcast. As far as any know, he has never died and returned to Azyr, insteading continuing an eternal fight within the Broken Continent. 
The first records fo the Broken Angel were simple. Travellers would return with incredible stories of being saved by a strange and lone Stormcast Eternal, who cut down roving bands of Chaos marauders or violent orruk warbands. 
Such stories were generally dismissed as rumors or hopeful fables by more esteemed and educated individuals, but the stories and legends continued to grow over time, with the figure at its core always described as grim and resolute, rarely speaking and never taking off his heavily scarred helmet. 
The legends of the Broken Angel gained even more notoriety, however, as the warrior fought in more impressive battles and along other factions. His sudden appearance helped turn the tide in the First Battle of Tempium, and he fought alongside the Stormcast defending Vanderhal during an orruk WAAAGH! Perhaps most the most famous of his early actions was mysteriously arriving to guide a legion of Stormcast into the lands of Lilea, and he played an instrumental role in restoring the sleeping kingdom back to life.
== Notable Achievements ==
It can become increasingly hard to discern the fact from fiction regarding the Broken Angel, with nearly every city, major settlement, tribe, and faction having at least one story of the Broken Angel appearing to save them from destruction. How much is true and how much is fabricated legend can be difficult to discern, but regardless the mythical warrior is famed for several legendary feats and events.
He has appeared at key moments in the sieges and battles of most Cities of Sigmar within Panghura, notably Vanderhal, Miria, and the Seven Cities of Skiriya. He personally slew the beastman leader of a warherd that was attacking Deperon, and with the city's defenders drove away the beasts. 
Appearing before a small group of Stromcast Eternals, he lead them into the mists of Lilea, guiding them against the various dangers within and playing some pivotal (though largely mysterious) role in undoing the curse of the kingdom.
Following the Necroquake, he was credited with stopping at least three Living Spells through unknown means.
He appeared at the siege of Valkendreng to relieve the duardin, fighting alongside a collection of forces to defend Kurz Valka from the armies of Khorne, and quickly disappeared after the end of the battle.
== Personality ==
=== Likes and Dislikes ===
The Broken Angel rarely speaks, and when he does so thunder rumbles under his breath and his voice grumbles with deep clarity. His words carry and are deliberate, and he is described as never becoming emotional, remaining sternly steadfast and resolute. He reveals little, and because of this, little is known about him. He clearly favors the forces of Order, and harbors a deep anger against Chaos, as well as any force that stands against the progress of Sigmar and his Stormcast. But beyond this, little else seems to interest or impact him, nothing but the endless and grueling war he continues to wage in his wanderers. 
=== Skills ===
The Broken Angel has, as far as anyone knows, never died and become reforged, and instead is clad in old armor broken and shattered by decades of warfare and battle. When fighting alongside his fellow Stormcast he is always the last one standing, and due to some combination of luck, divine blessing, or extreme endurance and skill he always survives to walk away, taking the weapons and Sigmarite armor of his fallen kin. In this way, none can say what stormhost he even originated from, but regardless his centuries of unique warfare have given the Broken Angel exceptional skills in fighting in close-quarters, with few opponents able to stand long against him. 
No matter the odds, he always manages to survive, known to take incredible blows that should end his temporal life, but somehow he manages to persevere and continue on. Those with wytchsight often claim some powerful aura of the Lore of Beasts surround him, though exactly this means remains unclear. In many ways, the warrior almost appears cursed to wander but never to die, always appearing when he is needed and leaving just as soon, using his immortal strength and centuries of combat skills to strike fear into even the most stalwart of servants of the Ruinous Powers.
